Q & A
Customer Questions
Is this container leak proof and food grade?
This container is not food grade and should not be used to package food products. While tight head containers are designed to be leakproof, we cannot guarantee that it will never leak. If you would like to test this container's leakproof capabilities, you can request a sample.
What are the torque requirements of this 5-gallon tight head steel pail for hazardous materials (gasoline)?
Thank you for your inquiry. This drum can only be fitted with a compatible Rieke Flexspout, Part #26WRIE that is attached with a crimping tool, such as Part #26WRIC or Part #26WRID . I will send closing instructions for this drum in a separate message. Thank you for your interest in The Cary Company.
What is a tight head steel pail typically used for?

What kind of closures are compatible with tight head steel pails?

How many cubic feet in a 5 gallon pail?
The simple conversion of measurement of 5 gallons is 0.803 cubic feet. However, this is for the nominal capacity of the pail. The actual (overflow) capacity of a pail can vary from model to model. To calculate the full volume in cubic feet, for cylinder pails, you need to multiply π (3.14) x the pail radius (in feet) x the pail height (in feet). To calculate the volume for square pails, multiply the pail's length x width x height (in feet).
