55 Gallon Tight Head Steel Drum

Our 55 gallon tight head steel drum exceeds industry testing standards. We perform air tightness tests at 30kPa for 5 minutes. We perform hydraulic tests at 100kPa for 5 minutes. Both tests show no leakage. These tests simulate internal pressure changes during transport. They also simulate pressure from stacking. Only drums that pass both tests leave our factory. This 55 gallon tight head steel drum has a nominal capacity of 55 US gallons. This is about 208 liters. The outer diameter is 584 millimeters. The total height is 890 millimeters. The body wall thickness is 1.0 millimeter.

Our 55 gallon tight head steel drum comes with 2-inch and 3/4-inch twin threaded plugs. The 2-inch plug is for filling. The 3/4-inch plug is for venting. Both plugs seal reliably when tightened. This design suits long-distance transport of liquid materials. The body has ring reinforcements. These rings increase the drum's compression strength. The double seam process ensures strong seals on the head and bottom. The seam is complete with no cracks. The weld is smooth with no air holes. The outer surface has an anti-rust paint coating. This 55 gallon tight head steel drum has no inner coating. It suits lubricants, base oils, and paints.

Our leak tester checks every drum after seaming. The tester uses compressed air to detect any leakage. Only drums that pass this test move to the next production stage. We can provide UN1A1 dangerous goods certificates upon request. We support OEM and ODM customization. MOQ is 2,000 units. Free samples are available. Mass production takes about 10 days. We offer a one-year warranty. We accept third-party inspections.
