85 Gallon Steel Salvage Drum, UN Rated, Unlined, 19GA, Cover W/Lever Lock Ring Closure

Our 85 gallon 19 gauge (1.0 mm thickness) steel salvage drums are constructed of high-quality carbon steel and meet UN design type requirements. Standard salvage drums feature yellow bodies with yellow or red covers, and a salvage drum label in red. These open head steel salvage drums include an EPDM rubber gasket with a lever lock ring closure. The lever lock ring holds the cover on to the container with a latch (or toggle) that is pulled from one side to the other and applies torque to the two ring ends in a similar fashion to the bolt ring. No torque wrench is required to confirm proper closure.

Key Benefits

• UN Rated and tested to help ensure safe shipping of hazardous materials
• Quick-style lever lock rings make it easy to comply with closure regs; no tools required
• Open-head design and removable lid offer full, convenient access
• Shippable “as is” so there is no need to switch closure rings
• High-visibility yellow with red “Salvage Drum” markings clearly identify drum
• Interior is coated with a corrosion inhibitor; choose optional epoxy-phenolic lining for added resistance
• Proudly Made in the USA

Epoxy-Phenolic Lining (Optional)
Unlined drums come with a rust inhibitor designed to prevent the drum from rusting prior to being filled. It is not intended to act as a lining. It is normally applied at thin films 0.1-0.2 mils dry. Optionally, you can order the drum with an Epoxy-Phenolic Lining designed to provide outstanding chemical resistance in a pH range of 7.0 – 9.0. The resin ratio has been varied in specific formulations to achieve the desired compromises in flexibility and resistance. Typical products packaged are alkaline products, fatty acids, detergents, emulsions, foods, general organic chemicals, surfactants and water-based resins.
