The most prevalent industrial and factory applications for hydraulic oil drums are described in greater detail in this article.
Why Are Steel Barrels Commonly Used by Companies Across a Range of Industries?
Drums aren’t just used by one or two different industries. Far from it, drums are commonly used by companies across a whole spectrum of industries.
There are several reasons for their widespread industrial use. The key features of drums of hydraulic oil that ensure their enduring popularity include:
- Robust and hardwearing
- Versatile, with the ability to hold a wide range of liquids and solids
- UN rated/food grade
- Able to be reused, repurposed and recycled time and time again
- Cost-effective, offering value for money
- Can be stacked and stored in an industrial setting, such as a warehouse
- Can be safely transported in bulk
What Can Steel Barrels Be Used For?
Steel drums of hydraulic oil have an impressive array of uses, and that’s one of the primary reasons why they’re so widespread across different industries. The primary use of a steel drum is to safely store or transport goods, but within this, drums are employed by companies to fulfil a number of different functions.
The most common uses for drums include:
- Storing liquids (including water)
- Storing fuel (including petrol, diesel and aviation fuel)
- Storing oils and lubricants (including cooking oil or engine oil)
- Storing food and beverages (including spices, grains, powders, etc.)
- Storing medical or pharmaceutical supplies
- Storing solvents and chemicals
- Storing hazardous waste
- Storing construction materials (e.g. sand)
Where Should Steel Barrels Be Stored?
In general, drums should always be stored in a cool, dry environment, such as a warehouse or dedicated storage area. Drums can be fitted with dust covers or UV covers and other attachments that can protect against moisture, dust and sunlight, thereby allowing products to be kept safely for longer.
Drums of hydraulic oil are designed specifically for industrial use, and they can be stacked on pallets and on top of one another. When moving large 208-litre drums in an industrial setting, always ensure that health and safety regulations are stringently followed.
What Is the Lifespan of Steel Barrels?
Drums have the potential for a long lifespan – yet another reason why they are so popular amongst many different industries.
The average lifespan of a steel drum is as long as twenty years, but this is only when drums are regularly inspected for damage, cleaned and serviced.
Drums of hydraulic oil that are well maintained can be reused time and time again, making them a cost-effective and environmentally friendly storage option for businesses. Damaged drums can be repaired, reused or entirely repurposed for other uses.
