Product Overview

This 55-gallon open-head reconditioned steel drum provides a robust, UN-rated packaging solution for demanding industrial applications. Featuring a heavy-duty bolt ring closure and a fully removable lid, it is engineered for secure containment while allowing full access for filling and dispensing solid or highly viscous materials.

Painted black for a clean finish and added exterior protection, this reconditioned drum offers a reliable, cost-effective, and sustainable alternative to new steel packaging without compromising structural integrity or regulatory compliance.

Best Fit Commercial Uses

  • Storage and transport of hazardous and non-hazardous solid materials.
  • Containment of highly viscous industrial chemicals, adhesives, and sealants.
  • Collection and secure disposal of industrial waste and manufacturing byproducts.
  • Spill recovery and secondary containment operations in facility management.
  • General industrial storage requiring robust, UN-rated steel construction.

Handling, Storage & Documentation

Ensure the heavy-duty bolt ring is properly torqued and fully secured prior to transport to maintain strict UN rating compliance for hazardous materials. Store drums in a dry, covered environment to preserve the exterior black coating and prevent premature weathering or surface rust. Always inspect the drum body, lid, and closure mechanism before each use to verify structural integrity and suitability for your specific industrial load.
