How much attention you put on steel drum closure system? It is the “last close” of drum factory and the “first open” of drum user, as well as the only connection of inner content and outter environment, makes it a critical role in steel drum industry.  

Let's break down some necessary points and figure out what really matters in selecting great steel drum closure.  

Standard--The main specification principal is to follow  ISOF-15750-3 standard, while there is also JIS Z 1604 standard in the market. Always ask your supplier for specification sheet and whether they follow standard strictly.

Flange Rivet--
