Product Composition and Structure
The 208L Stainless Steel Drum consists of three main structural components:
1.Drum Body:
Formed from high-grade SUS 304 or SUS 316L stainless steel sheets.
TIG welded for seamless joints and reinforced with rolling ribs for added rigidity.
Provides exceptional strength, cleanliness, and leak-proof integrity.
2.Top and Bottom Ends:
Deep-drawn stainless steel ends with precision-curved edges to withstand internal pressure.
Closed-head version includes standard 2” and ¾” stainless steel threaded fittings.
Open-head version fitted with a removable lid and sealing gasket for easy filling and cleaning.
3.Sealing Components:
Equipped with food-safe silicone or EPDM gaskets for airtight closure.
Optional clamp or bolt ring system ensures high security and leak resistance.
The drum’s entire structure is designed for easy disassembly, cleaning, and reassembly to support long-term reuse in sterile or high-value environments.
