Core Construction & Material
- Main Body: Cold rolled carbon steel, standard 24/26/28 gauge optional; straight-sided or slightly tapered nesting design for stacking efficiency when empty
- Bottom & Lid: Integrated seam-welded steel bottom, matched steel pancake cover; thickness consistent with pail body
- Sealing System: Removable steel lever lock ring + rubber gasket, fully encircles the lid rim to block leakage, dust and moisture
- Carrying Handle: Galvanized metal handle with soft plastic grip, portable for manual lifting and pouring

- Surface Coating:
- Exterior: Electrostatic baked paint, available in black, gray, blue, white and custom colors
- Interior options:
1. Unlined with anti-rust primer (for oil, solvent, non-corrosive contents)
2. Epoxy phenolic lining (acid & mild chemical resistance, paints, adhesives)

Outstanding Features & Advantages
1. Open Head Full Access Design
Large full top opening enables convenient bulk filling, scooping, stirring and complete interior cleaning, ideal for products requiring frequent access.
2. Quick Lever Lock Closure
No tools required for opening/closing: simply lift the lever to release the ring, flip down to lock tightly. Far more efficient than traditional bolt ring closures; lock tab can be sealed for anti-tamper transport.
3. Superior Sealing Performance
Integrated rubber gasket eliminates liquid seepage under normal transport vibration; effectively prevents solvent volatilization and product contamination.
4. High Mechanical Strength
Welded seamless structure resists impact, extrusion and puncture during logistics; steel material is flame retardant, far safer than plastic pails for chemical and flammable materials.
5. Multi-scene Compatibility & Reusability
Compatible with manual and automatic filling machines; easy to clean and repeatedly refill; fully recyclable metal material for eco-friendly operation.
6. Customizable Solutions
Support custom interior lining, exterior printing/logo, color matching, stainless steel upgrade (304 food grade), and customized gauge thickness.

5. Wide Application Industries
- Coatings & Ink: Paint, resin, pigment, varnish, printing ink
- Chemical Industry: Lubricants, grease, adhesives, solvent, powder raw materials
- Food & Cosmetic: Edible oil, syrup, flavor essence, cosmetic raw paste (food-lined version)
- Agriculture: Pesticide intermediates, fertilizer slurry
- Workshop & Hardware: Industrial cleaning fluid, machinery oil, waste sludge collection
- Hazardous Goods Logistics: Classified transport of mild dangerous solids & liquids with UN certification

6. Usage Notes
1. Unlined anti-rust primer only provides short-term rust protection; long-term storage of water-based or corrosive products must select phenolic/epoxy lining.
2. Confirm UN rating matching your cargo hazard class before cross-regional shipment.
3. Tighten the lever lock fully after closing to avoid leakage during stacking and transportation.
