42 Gallon Stainless Steel Drum

The 42 gallon used open head drum is a favorite of ours. It features a large capacity but is short enough to easily reach the bottom.

Extra Heavy  all welded drum has four 1/4" vent holes approximately 1.5" from top.   The holes can be left open, TIG welded closed, or Sealed with solid copper rivets. Drums may have a data plate tack welded to the outside.

If a seal is not required then the holes will not cause a problem. TIG welding fills the holes restoring the drum back to its orginal strength and function. Copper rivets look cool and do an excellent job of sealing the hole. The handles on your stock pots use a rivet of the same style.

Polishing is an option, we bring the drum up to a medium luster it looks nice, but Some dings and scratches will still be visible.

Polishing and TIG welding is done on an as ordered bases.  Please allow us a few days to get your barrel shipped.

Lids, add a lid to your drum order and save.  For a full description visit Lids & Gaskets.
