Standard drums can have different 55 gallon drum plug types. Usually, drums will have two different openings. (or bungs) One of them is always going to be a fine thread which in North America is 2″ NPS. (National Pipe Straight) In addition, the drum will always have a second bung which will either be large or small. If this secondary bung is large it is most likely a 63 mm buttress. technical details here. However it is often mistakenly called a 2-inch Buttress, but this is an inaccuracy. In any case, both of these threads are straight (not tapered like the NPT) and therefore they use an o-ring to provide a liquid-tight seal. If the second bung is small in diameter, it is almost certainly a 3/4 inch NPS thread in North America.
Buttress threads come in many different sizes around the world, and each container manufacturer seems to favor its own particular thread pitch and depth. Narrowing this to the chemical drum industry in North America, the 63 mm size is the most common. Occasionally this is also called a 2″ Buttress but this is an imprecise description. A nice feature of the Buttress plug is that it threads in place after only 3 turns or so. Also, the Buttress threads are much coarser than NPS and will never get stripped. Finally, because the threads are so coarse, it is easier to start the thread engagement than with a fine thread like the 2-inch NPS.

It is stamped from high-quality tinplate, and the sealant is cast in the cover.
Metal tab seal cap Specifications:
200-liter oil drums are universal, the cover diameter is: a large mouth 70mm-small mouth 35mm thickness is 0.22mm
Metal tab seal cap Features:
It has the characteristics of waterproof, anti-theft, anti-counterfeiting and strong confidentiality, and is easy to operate. The surface of the sealing cover is multi-colored, and the trademark pattern can be printed on the cover according to customer requirements.
Metal tab seal cap use:
The 200L oil drum sealing cover (oil drum anti-theft cover) is suitable for the international general 200 liter (53 gallon) large-capacity oil drum. It is very practical in many packaging applications such as barrel making, irrigation, lubricating oil, chemical industry, petroleum, grain and oil.
The lid of the iron oil drum is too tight, how to open it?
All steel drums, iron drums, plastic drums, ton drums, kiloliter drums or other containers may be damaged during long-term transportation and use, resulting in leakage. Need to prevent disasters before they happen. Put these oil drums that store oil, chemicals, and hazardous chemicals on the spill tray, spill platform, IBC spill tray.
The leaking tray, leaking platform and anti-leakage platform have the characteristics of the sturdy structure, forklift operation, non-slip, and suitability. When a leak occurs, all the leaking liquid will automatically flow into the tray or platform along the tray or platform grille. In the leak area, it will not flow to the ground, corridors or passages. Both the drain tray and the drain platform have drain plugs.
Metal Drum Cap Seals
1. If the oil drum is to be placed outdoors, it must be ensured that rainwater does not enter. In the above secondary containment measures, wrapping the leakage tray, leakage platform and IBC leakage tray with waterproof rain cloth can achieve the purpose of preventing rainwater, sun protection and preventing insects and birds from entering the wrapping container.
2. The fixed open-air storage yard must meet the requirements of relevant regulations such as “Code for Fire Protection of Architectural Design”.
3. Items that may explode, burn, decompose and deteriorate after exposure to water and moisture, exposure to sunlight and dust pollution are not allowed to be stored in the open air for a long time.
4. A stacking platform should be set up in the open-air yard, and its height from the ground should not be less than 0.3m.
5. There should be no less than 3m passages between stacks.
6. There are open drainage ditches or dark ditches around the yard, and there are protective fences
7.The setting of the stacking platform should also follow the principle of conflicting with each other and different fire extinguishing methods and not mixing them.
What material is good for the plastic bucket? When we pickle and store food, we must choose high-quality plastic buckets to ensure food safety. How can we choose the right plastic bucket? Learn these 5 tips and never have to worry about choosing the wrong plastic bucket in the future!

1. What is the best material for plastic buckets
The materials used in the production of plastic buckets are diverse, and there is a big gap between the materials of plastic barrels for different purposes. The properties of different materials are also different, such as corrosion resistance, freezing resistance, easy cleaning, anti-static, anti-oil, light-proof, good sealing, and high-cost performance, etc. Therefore, the quality of the material depends on the specific purpose.
At present, there are two main categories of plastic buckets used for food contact materials on the market.
This material can be used in three processes: injection molding, blow molding, and rotational molding.
The portable barrel produced by the injection molding process is convenient for the transportation of drinking water, food, tableware, and chopsticks in the canteen, catering, and other industries.
Packaging plastic buckets and chemical plastic buckets produced by the blow molding process. It can be used to store and transport various disinfectants, detergents, honey, syrup, bean paste, and oil.
The rotomolding process produces storage tank buckets, dosing buckets, and chemical pickling barrels. It can be used for various food storage and pickling, chemical liquid storage and sewage and wastewater treatment, etc.
Rotomolding process plastic buckets use HDPE materials, which require specified materials, which are more expensive to produce and have a wider range of chemical resistance.
2) Imported low-density polyethylene (LLDPE)
LLDPE is a relatively common material for pickling plastic buckets. It is also called beef tendon material with good toughness and long service life. It is the most popular material for many families and enterprises.
This material is produced and processed by rotational molding technology and is integrally formed, and it is not easy to leak. It has good resistance to acid and alkali corrosion and is very suitable for pickling, brewing, and cleaning food.

2. Tips for choosing plastic buckets
In order to avoid errors when choosing plastic buckets. We have compiled some small coups here, hoping to help everyone.
1) Food contact inspection
If the plastic bucket needs to be in direct contact with food, its production materials need to be issued by the manufacturer with a material inspection report to confirm that it is a food material before it can be used.
Here we recommend that everyone choose food plastic buckets, try to choose white so that you can know at a glance whether it is new material production and processing.

2) See instructions for chemical resistance
If it is a plastic bucket that stores chemical liquids, when we choose, we must pay attention to the performance description of the plastic bucket to make sure that the plastic bucket is resistant to chemicals.

3) Low temperature and high temperature to be customized
If it is a plastic bucket used in a low temperature or high-temperature environment, it needs to be customized thickened or refrigerated resistant. Generally speaking, ordinary models may not meet the performance, or the life span is longer than thicker models.

4) Keep away from light for outdoor storage
Some plastic buckets stored outdoors for a long time may need to be made black to avoid light. Some special chemical liquids also need to be stored in black containers, so that the effect of avoiding light is better.

5) Product performance needs to be tested
For the different properties of plastic barrels such as corrosion resistance, storage capacity, sealing performance, multi-layer stacking, and handle load-bearing, reasonable tests can be carried out to detect the use performance of plastic buckets.
