Open-Head Drum for Bulk Transport

The EAGLE 1656 is a 57.5 gal open-head drum built from polyethylene for moving bulk solids or liquids. Its unlined interior and lever-lock ring closure suit industrial, agricultural or waste-handling tasks where full top access is needed.

UN-Rated Limits for Liquid Carriage

The drum carries UN ratings 1H2/X100/S and 1H2/Y100/S for liquids, meaning it is certified for Packing Groups II and III up to a 100 kPa test pressure. It has zero bung holes, so pouring or pumping must occur through the open head once the cover is removed.

Verify Compatibility Before Ordering

Confirm that your handling equipment can accommodate a 22 1/2 in top outside diameter and 36 3/8 in overall height. The 4.57 mm wall thickness and plastic closing ring are designed for the rated pressures only; do not exceed the UN markings or use the drum for Packing Group I materials.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 57.5 gal open-head drum or a different capacity for bulk transport?

The 57.5 gal capacity suits large-volume handling; the open head allows full access for solids or viscous liquids, while the 4.57 mm wall thickness and lever-lock ring provide secure containment during movement.

What does the UN rating 1H2/X100/S mean when the drum is filled and moved on site?

It certifies the drum for Packing Group II and III liquids up to a specific gravity of 1.0, so it can safely transport compatible hazardous liquids when closed with the lever-lock ring and correct gasket.

How does the lever-lock ring closure work with the HDPE cover on this polyethylene drum?

The plastic lever-lock ring clamps the white HDPE cover onto the open-head body, creating a UN-rated seal that meets the 1H2/X100/S and 1H2/Y100/S standards for liquid transport.
