If the thickness of the barrel of the steel drum is insufficient when the user places an order, the strength is insufficient. There are certain requirements for the selection of the thickness of steel drums, and thin materials should not be used blindly to reduce the cost of steel drums. The thinness of steel drums must be based on meeting the needs of users, and the thickness of steel drums that cannot meet the requirements for use should also be a quality problem.
The determination of the thickness of the steel drum material is mainly based on the comprehensive consideration of factors such as the degree of danger of the goods, the size of the specific gravity, the transportation conditions, and whether it is recycled. Table 1 shows the conventional methods for determining the thickness of steel drums.
Most steel drums are produced using cold-rolled steel plates as raw materials. Because cold-rolled plates have rolling errors in thickness, steel drums have corresponding weight errors. The user should understand this error when inspecting whether the barrel-making enterprise produces and supplies the thickness required by the contract.
According to the thickness of steel drums, it can be divided into heavy drums, medium drums, sub-medium drums and light drums. The thickness of the material generally has a certain relationship with the capacity of the steel drum.
Short comment: The thickness of the steel drum is related to the thickness of the material, and the quality of the steel drum closure is also related to the raw material. The steel drum sealer provided by Xuheng uses high-quality raw materials to enhance its tightness and is not easily deformed during use.
