Item: SPC0005CS3L011
UN Rating: UN1A1/X1.6/300
Opening: Tight Head Rieke Opening
Pack: 36
Our 5 gallon gray steel pail with a 2 coat green phenolic lining is a tight head pail with Rieke opening. It has a hole covered with a dust cap. Pails are shipped empty, with the dust cap on, so they remain clean. The end user fills the pail and then crimps on a Rieke Flexspout (sold separately). A Rieke Flexspout is a retractable plastic pour spout which offers a reliable and tamper evident seal. When the spout is closed, it has a low profile for ease of stacking. The tamper evident cap has a pull tab for fast removal. Once the Flexspout is crimped on, and before the first use, the cap is pulled off the spout and cannot be reattached. To use the pail, simply pull up the spout, dispense your product and reclose. UN1A1/X1.6/300
