The invention discloses an oil drum hoisting clamp, which is characterized in that the bottom of a drawing bearing plate (1) is connected with a bearing plate (3), and the overall side surface of the clamp is in an inverted y shape; and the upper end edge of the drawing bearing plate (1) is provided with a convex edge (5), a through hole is formed in the center of the upper part of the drawing bearing plate, and the tail end of the drawing bearing plate is provided with a barb (2). The barb of the drawing bearing plate of the oil drum hoisting clamp hooks the outer edge of an oil drum through the drawing force of a hanging rope when the oil drum is hoisted, so that the pressure bearing plate presses a top cover of the oil drum so as to form squeezing force on a grasping hook on the outer side, and the oil drum can be firmly grasped by the hanger.
