In modern logistics and warehousing systems, ensuring the safe transportation and reliable storage of dry bulk products is paramount. A high-performance packaging container not only effectively protects contents from environmental factors but also significantly reduces risks of damage and leakage, thereby maintaining smooth supply chain operations. Among industry favorites stands the 15-gallon fiber drum (Model: S-17005), which delivers an efficient and economical packaging solution for various dry solid products through its sturdy construction, user-friendly design, and compliant materials.

Engineered for Durability

Designed to meet rigorous transportation and storage standards, this fiber drum's core strength lies in its structural integrity. Both the top and bottom of the drum are reinforced with sturdy steel rings, significantly enhancing overall stability during stacking and handling. This reinforcement prevents deformation, ensuring product protection even in demanding logistics environments. Whether for long-distance shipping or extended storage, this robust construction provides reliable containment.

Enhanced Security Features

The drum excels in security with its locking steel band system that ensures tight closure while accommodating tamper-evident seals. Any unauthorized opening becomes immediately apparent, supporting product traceability throughout the supply chain. The metal lid provides additional protection against moisture, dust, and other contaminants, making it particularly suitable for applications requiring high environmental cleanliness.

Material Compliance and Safety

Manufactured with FDA-compliant materials, this fiber drum guarantees safety when packaging food, pharmaceuticals, or other health-sensitive products, eliminating risks of harmful substance migration. The included 4-mil low-density polyethylene (LDPE) liner provides an extra layer of isolation and moisture protection, while facilitating cleaning and preventing direct contact between contents and container walls.

User-Friendly Design

Practicality shines through in the drum's operation—no specialized tools are required for opening. A simple pull of the lever mechanism at the lid's edge provides easy access, streamlining workflows in high-frequency usage scenarios.

Precision Dimensions and Compatibility

The drum's carefully engineered dimensions accommodate diverse packaging needs:

• Internal: 15 1/8" diameter (38.4 cm) × 18 7/8" height (47.9 cm)
• External: 15 3/4" diameter (40 cm) × 19 1/4" height (48.9 cm)
• Capacity: 15 gallons (56.8 liters)
• Weight Capacity: 300 lbs (136 kg)

Its stacking strength withstands 600 lbs (272 kg) of evenly distributed load, with pressure resistance up to 800 PSI. The drum seamlessly pairs with standard 30×36" industrial liners (1.5 mil thickness), available in both transparent (S-7682) and black (S-11677) variants.

International Compliance

Certified for global trade with its UN 1G/Y120/S rating, this drum meets international hazardous materials transportation standards. Some units may feature higher UN ratings than specified, further attesting to their performance capabilities.
