Eagle Gasket and Packing 1654 20 Gal Salvage Drum

Product Description

The Eagle Gasket and Packing 1654 is a 20-gallon salvage drum designed for the safe containment and transport of hazardous or leaking containers. Constructed with a metal lever-locking band closure, this overpack drum provides a secure seal that resists accidental opening during handling and storage. It is used as an emergency containment solution when a primary container has been damaged, is leaking, or requires secondary overpack compliance. Licensed contractors, environmental service technicians, and facility safety personnel are the primary installers and handlers of this unit.

This salvage drum is suited for industrial, commercial, and trade applications where regulatory compliance for hazardous material containment is required. It functions as an overpack vessel, accepting a damaged or leaking primary drum inside its walls to prevent spills during transport or temporary storage. Its 20-gallon capacity makes it practical for smaller primary containers commonly found in HVAC, plumbing, pool chemical, and general maintenance supply environments.

Key Features

• Metal lever-locking band provides a secure, tamper-resistant closure
• Designed for use as an emergency overpack when primary containers are compromised

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Handling and deployment of salvage drums should be performed by personnel trained in hazardous materials procedures. Before placing a leaking or damaged container inside, ensure appropriate personal protective equipment is worn per applicable safety regulations. Secure the metal lever-locking band fully after loading to confirm a proper seal prior to any transport or storage. Consult applicable DOT and local environmental regulations for overpack labeling and transport compliance.
