Description
A sealed drum with a protective glow-up. This tight head lacquered steel drum holds 205 liters nominal (about 54 US gallons; 216.5 L brimful) and is UN approved for dangerous goods in Packing Groups I, II and III. The lacquer gives the CR4 mild steel extra protection, so these drums keep longer in storage than plain steel drums.
Why Buyers Choose a Tight Head Lacquered Steel Drum
Chemical producers, oil and grease suppliers, and spirits handlers use this tight head lacquered steel drum where steel strength and a closed top are required. Threaded 2″ and 3/4″ bungs in the fixed top seal tightly against leaks and let you pump or pour from one while venting through the other. No glugging, no splashing, no mess.
UN Marks and Strength
The UN marks cover PG I (1A1/X1.2/250), PG II (1A1/Y1.9/250) and PG III (1A1/Z2.8/250), and the tight head lacquered steel drum has a weight capacity of 416 kg, roughly 917 lb. Empty, it weighs just 15.3 kg (about 33.7 lb) and can be stacked up to three high, which keeps your storage area tidy.
