    This 55 gallon black steel drum is open headed with a rust inhibitor. This steel drum does not include a cover and is ideal for containing waste or solid products and is compatible with The Cary Company's trash and recycling can lids for a heavy-duty, durable disposable receptacle.

    Key benefits:
    • Ideal for storage and transportation purposes
    • Open head containers (1A2 drums) have a removable cover creating convenient access to the inside of the drum
    • The rust inhibitor prevents the drum from rusting prior to being filled
    • Cover not included
    • Not UN Rated
    • This reconditioned drum is supplied from a RIPA Member (Reusable Industrial Packaging Association). RIPA members must meet requirements for the proper handling of drums that come in and out, maintain an environmental insurance policy, and have a Responsible Container Management Policy.

    Material:

    Carbon steel (CS) is metal alloy that is made of iron and carbon. It is known as a cost-effective alloying material. There are four types of carbon steel that vary in strength level: low carbon steel, medium carbon steel, high carbon steel, and very high carbon steel. Engine parts, car body panels, and select knives are made of carbon steel. The Cary Company also has carbon steel IBC tanks, filter vessels, and drums that work well with many liquids.

    We use these as garbage cans in our city parks. They are perfect for our use. And, the price is the best we can find.
