Plastic plugs for 55 gallon steel drums

We offer plastic plugs for the 55 gallon steel drums. The sizes we offer are 2" and 3/4" with the NPT threads. We can supply Nylon and Polypropylene.

"...products and services are great. We get prompt, courteous replies from you and your company. The parts we order sometimes arrive before expected date, which is great... I would like to see you stock a wider selection of drum gaskets and plugs, i.e. VGII gaskets. Keep up the good work."— Chris, Drum Tech US

The Nylon Plugs have been submitted to extensive testing from Factory Mutual, also known as FM. This means both sizes plugs are FIRE RATED. These nylon plugs are recommended for customers that transport flammable contents in the drums. In case of a fire, the nylon plugs will melt in a quick manner relieving the pressure from inside the container, avoiding in this way an explosion. The gaskets on these plugs are Poly-irradiated, BUNA or EPDM.

"I purchase all of my steel line bungs from you and you have always been helpful and fair in negotiating our pricing for our bungs. You are always easy to get in touch with and respond back to me in a timely fashion which is becoming rare these days with many of my other vendors. You are, by far, one of our preferred vendors." — Laura, Recycle East

Another quality we offer with the nylon plugs is the nylon is FDA listed. This means that the Federal Department of Agriculture has approved the nylon as a material used in containers that can carry food products. The Poly-irradiated gaskets on these plugs are also FDA listed.

The Polypropylene plugs are not FM approved.
