Plastic pail
Round PP Bucket, 2.5L to 20L
Injection-moulded polypropylene pail in eighteen sizes from 2.5 to 20 litres, with tamper-evident lid, plastic or steel handle and in-mould labelling.
The plain round tinplate bucket, in four sizes, with the seam quality that decides whether a solvent is still in the pail a year later.
| Capacity range | 5 to 25 litres, four sizes |
|---|---|
| Material | Tin-plated steel |
| Wall thickness | 0.25 to 0.35 mm depending on size |
| Head configuration | Tight-head or open-head |
| Closure | Screw cap with spout, or full-diameter lid |

| Lead time | Approximately one month for a standard production run; samples in 7–15 days. Confirmed against your specification at quotation. |
These depend on your order, your market or the certificate that covers your run, so we quote them rather than publish one figure that would be wrong for most buyers. Ask and you get the number for your specification.
Before you order: Tight-head and open-head are not interchangeable late in a project. The head configuration decides your filling line, not the other way round, so settle it before tooling.
4 sizes, with the container quantities a distributor needs to cost a shipment. Loading figures are unpalletised.

Figures are the factory’s published catalogue values, transcribed as printed. Confirm against the drawing issued with your order — wall thickness and closure are specified against the contents, so the build for your product may differ from the standard shown.
A tight-head bucket has no removable lid, only a spout and cap. There is one seal instead of a full-circumference one, which is what keeps a solvent at strength through a shelf life.
The seam is where a thin-wall steel container leaks first. Roll quality is a specification here rather than a by-product of the line speed.
The same body proportion and print area across 5, 10, 20 and 25 litres, so a range on a shelf reads as a range rather than four unrelated containers.
Steel with a steel closure goes into the same stream. No lid to separate, no mixed-material line on the label.
The body is pressed from cold-rolled steel to the pattern, seam-welded, then finished as set out in the specification above: internal coating, galvanising or powder coat according to what the can carries. Pressing runs across our Vietnam and China plants under one specification managed from Singapore, so the drawing and closure stay identical whichever plant fills the order.
Every can is checked before it leaves the plant:
The regimes that apply to this type of container in each market we ship to, with the detail behind each one a click away. This is what the market asks for; what this particular design already holds is in the specification above.
Orientation for specification, not legal advice, and not a statement that this design holds a given approval. Requirements turn on the exact design, contents and destination, and they change. Tell us the market at enquiry and we confirm what applies to your specification, what we hold and what we would need to obtain.
