A 30 gallon lined steel drum with an open head, bolt ring closure, epoxy phenolic lining, and UN rating gives you a strong container for storing and shipping compatible liquids, solids, chemicals, and industrial materials. Its smaller size is easier to handle than a 55 gallon drum while still offering dependable capacity. This open head steel drum is a practical choice when you need wide access to the inside of the container. You can fill it faster, remove contents more easily, and clean it better after use. The removable steel cover also helps when storing thicker materials, powders, parts, waste, or other bulk goods.
The epoxy phenolic lining adds interior protection between your product and the steel drum wall. This lining helps reduce corrosion risk when used with compatible materials. It’s a useful feature for chemical storage, industrial liquids, coatings, additives, and other products that need extra protection during storage or transport. The bolt ring closure helps secure the steel cover tightly to the drum body. The EPDM gasket helps seal the cover when properly closed. This makes the drum a good fit for many shipping, storage, and handling jobs where product protection and container strength both matter.
This 30 gallon open head steel drum is UN rated for both liquids and solids. The listed liquid rating is 1A2/Y1.8/150. The listed solid ratings are 1A2/X400/S, 1A2/Y400/S, and 1A2/Z400/S. Always check your product, packing group, and shipping rules before use. Built from 20 gauge steel, this drum has a strong body, top, and bottom for industrial handling. Its black exterior gives it a clean, professional look, while the lined interior adds extra product protection. The 34 lb. weight makes it sturdy without being too hard to move with proper drum equipment.
The 30 gallon size works well when a full 55 gallon drum is too large or too heavy. It can help reduce waste, improve handling, and make smaller batch storage easier. This makes it useful for chemical plants, maintenance shops, manufacturing areas, labs, and warehouses. You can use this drum for compatible hazardous and non-hazardous materials, but it must be matched to the product being stored or shipped. The lining, gasket, closure, and UN rating should all be reviewed before filling. This helps protect your product, your workers, and your shipment.
For best results, use the correct closing tools and follow UN closure instructions. A UN rating only applies when the drum is used, filled, closed, and shipped according to the proper requirements. When handled correctly, this lined open head steel drum gives you a strong and useful industrial container.
This drum is a good choice when you need a smaller steel container with a removable lid. The open head design is helpful for materials that are hard to pour through a small bung opening. It’s also easier to inspect the inside before and after use.
The epoxy phenolic lining is one of the key benefits. It helps protect the drum from certain compatible chemicals and materials that may react with bare steel. Before use, check chemical compatibility with the lining and EPDM gasket. Commonuses may include chemical storage, industrial liquids, powders, solids, waste materials, coatings, lubricants, and production ingredients. Because this drum is UN rated, it may be used for approved hazardous material shipping when all rules and closure requirements are followed.
This product description should not say “55 gallon steel drum.” The correct product is a 30 gallon lined open head steel drum with a bolt ring closure.
