10-25L Steel Pails / Metal Buckets Product Introduction
Overview
10L to 25L steel pails are standard medium-sized metal packaging containers widely used in industrial storage, material sub-packaging, domestic distribution and international export. We provide complete specifications including 10L, 18L, 20L (5 gallon) and 25L. Two main types are available: open-head steel pails and closed-head steel pails.
Made of high-quality cold-rolled steel or tinplate, our metal buckets feature high mechanical strength, excellent airtightness, drop resistance and stackability. They are suitable for liquid, paste, powder and granular materials, covering chemical, coating, lubricant, food, agricultural and construction industries. All products support long-distance transportation, sea freight and warehouse stacking.
Material & Surface Treatment
1. Base Material: 0.32mm–0.55mm thick high-grade steel plate, galvanized steel or food-grade tinplate for different usage demands.
2. Exterior Coating: Electrostatic baking paint finish, scratch-resistant, anti-rust, color customizable (blue, white, gray, black, custom colors).
3. Interior Coating:
- Standard epoxy lining for general industrial materials.
- Anti-corrosion phenolic lining for solvents, resin and mild chemical liquids.
- Food-grade inner coating compliant with food safety standards for edible oil, flavor and food additives.
4. Craftsmanship: Integral rolling welding, multi-layer rib reinforcement, crimped edge sealing, leak-proof and deformation-resistant.

Core Advantages
1. High Safety Performance
Tight crimp sealing and premium rubber gaskets ensure zero leakage during transportation and stacking. Anti-drop and anti-extrusion structure avoids damage in logistics.
2. Strong Durability & Stackability
Reinforced barrel ribs greatly improve compression resistance. Metal structure supports multi-layer warehouse stacking, far more stable than plastic buckets. Reusable and recyclable.
3. Wide Compatibility
Multiple inner coating options adapt to common industrial materials, mild corrosive liquids and food-grade materials. One bucket for multiple applications.
4. Customization Support
Custom LOGO printing, color painting, size adjustment, thickened plate, food-grade lining and UN certified dangerous goods packaging.
5. Export Standard Compliance
Our steel pails meet general international packaging standards. UN-certified models are available for hazardous chemical export to Europe, Central Asia, Southeast Asia and other regions.
Application Scope
- Coatings, paints, inks and waterproof materials
- Lubricating oil, hydraulic oil and industrial grease
- Chemical solvents, adhesives, resin and cleaning agents
- Edible oil, food flavorings and food additives
- Agricultural pesticides and liquid fertilizers
- Construction putty, mortar powder and industrial powder
Summary
10–25L steel pails are classic and cost-effective metal packaging solutions. With reliable quality, stable sealing, strong structure and flexible customization, they are the preferred packaging choice for factory bulk separation, retail sales and international export trade. We provide stable supply, professional packaging solutions and one-stop OEM service for global clients.
