The PT‑17 drum trolley turns 200 L steel and plastic drum handling into a one‑person task. Its electro‑galvanized steel tube frame shrugs off chemical splashes and knocks, while rubber‑coated grips give a secure hold even with oily gloves. The front rocker foot supports controlled tipping, so you can decant without carrying the full weight. In the cradle the drum rotates on low‑friction rollers for accurate, splash‑free pouring.

The PT‑17 drum trolley is a dependable, Finnish‑made tool for everyday handling of 200 litre drums. It allows a single operator to lift, move and tilt both steel and plastic drums without strain. By combining a robust, zinc‑plated frame with a proven tilting cradle, the PT‑17 delivers controlled decanting and precise positioning wherever you work.
At the heart of the PT‑17 is a steel tube chassis made from Ø 25/32 mm material and finished with an electro‑galvanized coating. This zinc layer provides dependable protection against corrosion from humidity and routine splashes, and it stands up well to the bumps and knocks that are part of daily material handling. The open, tubular design also keeps weight sensible while maintaining high rigidity.
Thick, rubber‑coated grips give you a confident, non‑slip hold. The hand position and angle have been chosen for a natural, ergonomic pull so the trolley tracks straight without fighting you.
The PT‑17’s front rocker foot acts as a stable support point when you tip the drum. Instead of bearing the load in your forearms, you can use the leverage of the frame to roll the drum into the best pouring angle. In the cradle, the drum rests on eight low‑friction polyamide rollers. These rollers let the drum rotate smoothly around its axis so you can fine‑tune the flow and stop cleanly, reducing the risk of splashes and drips. Whether you are dispensing lubricants, coolants or other process liquids, the movement stays predictable and repeatable from start to finish.
For travel, the trolley runs on three castors: one swivel castor at the front for accurate steering and two fixed castors for directional stability. This combination is quick to learn and intuitive to use, especially in narrow aisles or between machines. It also keeps the footprint compact for storage when the shift is done.
The PT‑17 is designed specifically for standard 200 L drums, often referred to as 55‑gallon drums. The cradle accepts typical steel drums as well as modern plastic drums used across industry. If your site uses both, the same trolley can serve either type, simplifying training and reducing equipment variety.
