Carbon Steel Drums

Carbon Steel Drums (also known as Carbon Steel Barrels) are metal containers that are made with a metal alloy. This alloy is constructed of primarily iron and carbon. Carbon steel drums are a popular choice for lower viscosity liquids such as fragrances or beverages or even hazardous materials if UN Rated. They are available in two styles: tight head carbon steel drums and open head carbon steel drums, with the most popular size being 55 gallons.

The carbon steel drum price can depend on different factors (outside of shipping). These can include the condition, the capacity, the color, whether it is an open head carbon steel drum or a tight head carbon steel drum,  the fittings, whether or not it is UN Rated, if there is a lining on the inside, and much more.
