Unlined interior: Direct bare steel surface. Low cost; suitable for products that are compatible with plain steel and do not require barrier lining.
Strong construction: Good impact resistance and stacking strength for warehouse storage and transport.
Convenient lug closure: The lug design provides reliable sealing while avoiding complicated lock-ring operations; can be opened and closed repeatedly.
Recyclable: Metal material is fully recyclable, eco-friendly.
UN certification optional: Can be produced and tested to meet UN packaging standards for non-dangerous or compatible hazardous goods upon request.
Typical Applications
Only for materials compatible with bare steel (no acidic, corrosive or solvent contents that attack steel):
Granules, powders, hardware parts
Construction putty, cement compounds
Non-corrosive greases, waxes
Solid additives, raw materials for non-sensitive formulations
General industrial bulk goods, workshop storage
Important Reminders
Since the interior is unlined, it is NOT suitable for corrosive, acidic, water-based or chemically aggressive products, which will cause rust and contamination.
Always test compatibility between your product and bare steel before bulk packing.
The lug lid gasket material shall be selected to match your contents to prevent leakage or gasket swelling.
If hazardous cargo transport is needed, confirm UN marking and relevant test certificates in advance.
