Red Steel Latching Drum Lid
The New Pig DRM821-RD is a red steel latching drum lid designed for open-head steel drums. It fits drums with a 19 in outside diameter and capacities of 20 gal or 30 gal. The cover features an 18 in centre opening diameter and offers chemical-resistant properties for industrial use. This personal protective equipment accessory secures drum contents during storage or transport.
Upgrade From Unsecured Or Damaged Covers
This lid replaces missing, corroded or non-latching drum covers that leave contents exposed to contamination or spills. The jump is worth it when a positive latching mechanism is required to meet handling protocols for compatible drums such as DRM1008, DRM1336 or DRM835. It is not for drums outside the 19 in diameter range, for closed-head drums, or for applications needing integrated fusible links or bung-hole access.
Sustained Load Behaviour
Under continuous industrial use, the steel construction with nitrile components maintains its seal and latch engagement through repeated opening and closing cycles. Chemical resistance holds up against splashes and vapours without degrading the cover material. The fixed 18 in opening ensures consistent access dimensions throughout the service life. Long-term exposure to extreme temperatures or mechanical impact beyond normal drum handling is not covered by the supplied specifications.

Questions about this item
What drum outside diameter does the 18 in center opening of the DRM821-RD lid fit?
The lid is made for open-head steel drums with a 19 in outside diameter and suits 20 gal or 30 gal capacities.
How is the latching lid secured on the drum, and what step is often missed?
The lid clamps onto the drum's top rim using its built-in latching mechanism; the common mistake is not fully engaging each latch so the seal remains loose.
When should the nitrile gasket on this steel lid be replaced?
Replace the nitrile gasket whenever it shows cracking, hardening or chemical attack, or after any drum decontamination cycle.
