Small Steel Drum for General Use

Constructed of first-quality cold-rolled steel, this 55-gallon open-head black steel drum is designed, manufactured, and certified to meet UN requirements for shipping hazardous materials. It has a UN rating of 1A2/Y1.8/200 & 1A2/X400/S, ensuring safe transport.

The open-head design and removable lid offer full, convenient access to the interior of the drum. The lever-lock ring closure, sponge rubber gasket, and plated bolt/nut provide a tight seal to help prevent leaks and spills. The interior is coated with a corrosion-inhibiting lining for added resistance.

The steel lid, body, and bottom meet strict wall thickness requirements to ensure strength, durability, and long life. This makes the drum durable and dependable for storing and transporting both solids and non-water-based liquids.

Included with the drum are two 2-inch and 3/4-inch bungs, a plain cover with a locking ring, and a white EPDM gasket. These features allow the drum to be used as a high-quality, environmentally-friendly container.

It's important to note that while these steel drums are suitable for a wide range of non-water-based products, if they will be stored for extended periods or in high-humidity conditions, a phenolic or epoxy lining should be considered to prevent corrosion.

Regardless of the variety of 55-gallon drum options available, these open-head steel drums are an excellent choice for safely and reliably storing and transporting your materials, even hazardous products. The robust construction, UN certification, and variety of included features make this drum a durable and dependable solution.

In summary, this 55-gallon open-head black steel drum is designed to meet the highest standards for shipping and storing hazardous materials.
