Eagle 1657 Yellow Hdpe Overpack Drum 57 Gallon 550 Lb

Product Description

The EAGLE 1657 is a 57-gallon yellow HDPE overpack drum designed to contain, transport, and store leaking or damaged 55-gallon containers. Built from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), it provides chemical resistance and structural integrity for secondary containment applications. The screw-on lid creates a secure closure, and the drum carries a maximum load capacity of 550 pounds. At 28 pounds, it is manageable for field handling. The 1657 is used by hazmat teams, industrial facilities, and environmental service contractors who need a compliant outer packaging for damaged drums or spill response situations.

This overpack drum is suited for industrial, chemical, and environmental service applications where a 55-gallon drum requires secondary containment during transport or interim storage. The drum accepts containers up to 55 gallons (US). The unlined HDPE construction is compatible with a wide range of chemical types. It is appropriate for both indoor staging and outdoor use. Its UN and DOT listing makes it a compliant solution for regulated hazardous material transport scenarios.
