Tight Head Drums with 2″ Bungs and/or 3/4″ Bungs

Posted in plastic drums, plastic pails, steel drums, steel pails

Many times we get questions about the bungs or plugs on our plastic and steel tight head (closed head) drums.  This article will feature drums from 5 to 55 gallon with either 2″ and/or 3/4″ bungs.  Some drums have one bung while others have two bungs.  Each drum has a description of the type and size of plug that is included with the drum.

As an example, the black Deldrum shown in the picture at right has two 2″ buttress plugs.

Shown below (before the choice of drums) are pictures of the NPS and Buttress plugs shown side by side for comparison.

Also shown is a bung wrench that fits both 3/4″ and 2″ bungs.
