5 Gallon Double Can Tumbler
Specis for Model DT-D5, 5 Gallon Double Can Tumbler:
Industrial Can & Pail Mixer for Paint, Coating, Adhesive, and Chemical Applications
The DrumTumbler manufactures DT-D5 model is designed for efficient and safe mixing of materials directly
inside sealed cans or pails. It enables users to re-homogenize, blend, without opening containers—idealfor reducing contamination and cleanup time.
