30 Gal Steel Drum Open-Head - Black

The 30-gallon open-head steel drum, unrated, with a bolt ring, is the ideal choice for non-water-based products. Constructed with first-quality cold-rolled steel, it features a 16-gauge cover, 18-gauge body, and bottom. Included is a new standardized 12-gauge bolt-type locking ring closure, comprising a 4" x 5/8" bolt with a shoulder, a hole drilled 2.75" from the bolt head, and an EPDM gasket.

The standardized bolt ring design eliminates pinch points for enhanced safety and reduces the use of raw materials. These quality environmental containers can be recycled, reconditioned, or repurposed, promoting sustainability. The drum's dimensions are 28 15/16" in height and 20" in width.

Designed, manufactured, and certified to meet UN requirements for the transportation of hazardous materials under DOT 49 CFR, the 30-gallon steel drum has UN ratings of 1A2/X400/S and 1A2/Y1.8/150. This makes it suitable for shipping a wide range of non-water-based products, including hazardous chemicals.

It is important to note that for non-water-based products, unlined steel containers do not prevent rusting. Under ideal conditions, with low humidity and cleanliness, these drums can be stored for up to 30 days without showing signs of corrosion. However, if the empty drums will be stored for longer periods or in higher humidity environments, it is recommended to consider a phenolic or epoxy lining to provide additional protection.

The 30-gallon open-head steel drum, with its robust construction and versatility, is the go-to solution for safely transporting and storing a variety of non-water-based products. Its design features, such as the standardized bolt-type locking ring closure and the elimination of pinch points, prioritize both user safety and environmental responsibility. Whether for hazardous chemicals or other non-water-based materials, this 30-gallon steel drum offers a reliable and compliant packaging option.
