A drum deheader is a specialized tool crafted to remove the top or bottom lid of a steel drum safely. It ensures a clean, smooth edge on the opening, preventing injuries from sharp or jagged edges. Drum deheaders are available in two primary types: manual and electric.
An electric drum deheader is a motorized device that is usually maneuvered around the drum's circumference. It slices through the lid (head) and bends the metal inwards toward the drum's rim (chime). This process results in a smooth, burr-free edge around the opening. Electric deheaders are typically quicker and require less manual effort compared to their manual counterparts.
Manual deheaders are typically designed for steel drums up to 16 gauge in thickness. They often feature an adjustable gripping mechanism, making them suitable for use by both right-handed and left-handed individuals.
Bung wrenches are tools designed to open and close the bungs or plugs on steel drums. These bungs, which are large screw caps, allow access to the contents of the drum. The use of bung wrenches ensures that these caps are securely tightened, providing a safe seal. Employing the correct bung wrench is crucial for preventing leaks and spills.
Indeed, portability is a crucial attribute for numerous drum-opening tools. A variety of drum deheaders, such as electric versions, are crafted to be both lightweight and easily transportable, facilitating their use across different areas within a facility.
Certain drum deheaders and bung wrenches are crafted for secure operation in hazardous settings. For example, non-sparking bung wrenches are constructed from aluminum bronze rather than steel, which removes the danger of spark generation that could ignite combustible vapors.
The fundamental distinction between manual and electric deheaders lies in their operation. Manual deheaders require hand operation, necessitating physical labor to slice through the drum lid. Conversely, electric deheaders are powered by motors and automate the cutting process, considerably decreasing the user's workload.
Indeed, many drum-opening tools offer replacement parts, like blades for drum deheaders. This not only prolongs the lifespan of the tool but also diminishes the total cost of ownership.
Although drum deheaders and bung wrenches are commonly designed for standard 30-gallon and 55-gallon drums, there are specialized tools available for various other container types and sizes.
Selecting the appropriate drum opening tool requires consideration of various factors, such as:
The drum type (steel, plastic, fiber)
The drum size (30-gallon, 55-gallon, etc.)
The material thickness of the drum
The frequency of use (electric for regular use, manual for infrequent use)
The presence of hazardous materials (necessitating spark-resistant tools)
If there is any uncertainty about the best tool for your needs, consulting with a professional or a tool supplier is advisable.
