Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What is the difference between a gasket and a flange?

A.

• Move your shoulder low & close to the drum.
• When you feel the drum reaching its balancing point, slowly advance while moving your legs.
• Put your hands & shoulder width apart when utilising the drag / pull technique.

Q. What are the points to consider while transporting steel drums?

A.

• For transportation, the drums must be mounted on pallets and be critical when choosing pallets that can support the weight of the loaded drums.
