Introduction
A 5-gallon open-top steel bucket is a metal bucket with a handle for easy carrying. It has a capacity of approximately 18.9 liters and is particularly suitable for storing industrial raw materials such as paints and adhesives. Its lid is sealed with a lever-lock ring, making it very easy to open and close. The bucket body is usually reinforced with rollers, making it pressure-resistant and impact-resistant.
Key Features and Types
Material and Construction: The drum body and lid are typically made of 0.32mm to 0.45mm thick tinplate or steel, ensuring durability. The lid features a locking ring that engages with grooves in the drum body for a tight seal, preventing leaks.
Capacity: Commonly 5-gallon, but ranges from 1 to 7 gallons.
Material: 24-gauge or 28-gauge steel, ensuring durability in high-temperature applications.
Lid and Handle: In addition to the locking ring lid, other sealing lid types are available, such as flower lids and lever lids. The handle is typically made of metal with a plastic sleeve for easy grip and heat insulation.
Linings: Rust inhibitor primer is standard, but epoxy or phenolic linings are used for better, long-term chemical resistance.
Safety & Design: Features include drop bails for easy handling, reinforced bottoms for stability, and specialized lids (lever lock or crimped).
Specialty Use: Hot tar buckets often feature a "non-stick" surface and designed for easy pouring.
Common Applications
Roofing: Handling hot tar, asphalt, and mastic.
Construction & Industrial: Storing and transporting adhesives, coatings, and hazardous chemicals.
Materials Testing: Used for sampling hot-mix asphalt.

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.
