Introduction
Overview
Open‑Head Steel Pail equipped with Crimp‑Lock Lid lid is a cost‑effective standard industrial metal packaging container, widely adopted for one‑time export shipment of paint, coatings and chemicals. Made of premium cold‑rolled steel sheet with circumferential reinforcing ribs on pail body, this steel pail delivers excellent stacking stability and drop resistance for sea freight and warehouse storage. The Crimp lug lid is crimped onto the pail rim by crimping machine, with built‑in rubber gasket to achieve reliable leak‑proof sealing. Multiple inner lining options are available for general industrial, mild‑corrosive and food‑contact scenarios. Custom outer color, silk‑screen logo and shipping mark printing are supported for brand personalization.
Key Structure & Features
Lug‑type flower‑basket design requires crimping tool for sealing. Once crimped, it provides tight compression against the built‑in rubber gasket to prevent leakage and moisture penetration during long‑distance transportation. Notice: This is destructive opening design; the lid cannot be reused after being pried open, ideal for single‑trip export packaging. Large open‑top opening facilitates filling, stirring and material scooping.
Heavy‑Duty Bail Handle Robust metal bail handle fitted with plastic grip, easy for manual carrying, pouring and on‑site handling operations.
Reinforced Barrel Body Circular reinforcing ribs improve barrel rigidity, effectively resist deformation under stacking pressure and rough logistics handling. Multiple steel thickness options to match different gross weight requirements.
Versatile Inner Coating Solutions
Standard baking enamel: For neutral paint, water‑based materials and non‑corrosive pastes. Not applicable for food and strong‑solvent contents.
Epoxy‑phenolic lining: Universal industrial lining, compatible with resin, adhesive and mild‑corrosion chemicals, REACH compliant.
Food‑grade BPA‑Free epoxy lining: Complies with EU 10/2011 and FDA food‑contact standards, suitable for edible oil, syrup and food additives.

Important Components Of UN Steel Buckets With Lever Lock Ring
1.Lever locking ring lid
.Removable heavy gauge steel lid and lever locking ring combination for both UN rated or non-UN steel pail.re-sealable

2 Lid seal
For UN rated container rubber and EPDM gaskets have good performance of air tightness and anti-solvent property,they are exclusived used for UN containers.
3.Bottom sealing
.Five layers sealing for non-UN rated steel pail
.Seven layers sealing for UN rated steel pail

4 Handle
Steel handle with white or black plastic becket pass the test of handle strength test hanging 55kg in air for 48 hours.
Advantages
1.Factory test room for drop test,stacking test,hydraulic pressure test,leakproofness,bale handle strength.
2.Different moulds for tin cans and adhesive cans.So here we can supply one-stop steel containers purchasing service.
3.Have plastic pail and other plastic moulds for pail accessories like different pail covers.We also can make different moulds for not only plastic containers but also other PP,PE,ABS products.
