Drum Lock Ring

Product Details

Drum lock ring is a reliable sealing component for open head steel drum, open head plastic drum and fibre drum. It seals the drum lid and drum body by hooping them together. Drum locking rings usually vary in diameter, thickness, cross section design and closing components (drum clamp or drum bolt). Surface of the drum lever lock ring is galvanized, and it is able to protect contents in drum even under strict storage condtion.

To reach sealing property, the diameter and shape of cross section needs to fit the drum lid perfectly. Drums with bigger volume usually require drum lock ring with thicker thickness. Drum lock ring with bolt could provide stronger sealing force, but need wrench to close or open it. Drum lock ring with clamp is more flexible, and it is more convinient for operating.

Details of Drum Lock Ring

Raw material of plastic drum locking ring is high quality galvanized steel. Width of the galvanized steel-band is controlled precisely before bending into a ring. Except for standard diameter and cross section shape, customization on these two parameters are availale.

Clamps or drum botls and drum lugs need to be assembled onto rings to make a complete drum lock ring. Welding is the most common method to connect clamps and lugs with drum rings. Some of the drum lugs are designed to be plug-in type, which could go across the hole on drum ring and from strong connection part.

Bolt type drum lock ring is commonly used on steel drums. Clamp type lock rings are suitable for plastic, fibre and metal drums. Drum lock ring with bolt is applied when stronger sealing force is needed, and lock ring with clamp is preferred when convinience is essensial.
