TOUGH. STACKABLE. READY FOR THE LINE.
Maximum Strength for Solvents, Coatings & Hazmat
Cold-rolled steel pails carry the products that defeat plastic: solvents, coatings, and regulated hazardous materials. The steel body grounds for flammable transfer, takes a rust-inhibitive lining, and survives handling that would crack a resin pail.

How to spec yours
Provide the formulation, intended fill, density, temperature and contact duration.
Specify the required opening, closure, seal and discharge connection for the process.
Confirm corrosion resistance and lining compatibility with the actual formulation. A steel body alone does not establish a hazardous-goods rating or a safe transfer procedure.
Review the supplier reference, drawing, documentation, quantities and delivery terms before ordering.
