Small Stainless Steel Pail Parameters:

Small Stainless Steel Pail Features:

1. Corrosion resistance: Small Stainless Steel Pail is made of high-quality stainless steel and has excellent corrosion resistance. The chromium content in stainless steel is usually above 10.5%, which can form a dense chromium oxide film on the surface. This film is like a solid protective shield, effectively resisting the erosion of acids, alkalis, salts and other substances. Even in an environment with a pH value as low as 3 or as high as 11, the integrity of the barrel can be maintained. Taking the TP240 model as an example, its wall thickness is 0.8 mm. After being immersed in a solution with a salt concentration of 5% for 24 hours, the surface corrosion rate is only 0.002 mm/year, which is much lower than the 0.1 mm/year of carbon steel. This corrosion resistance allows it to be used stably in scenarios such as food processing and temporary storage of chemical raw materials, avoiding contamination of contents due to material corrosion, while reducing the frequency of product replacement due to corrosion perforation and reducing long-term use costs.

   
   

2. High strength: With the high strength characteristics of stainless steel, Small Stainless Steel Pail has excellent deformation resistance. The tensile strength of stainless steel can generally reach 520-800 MPa, which is much higher than the 250-400 MPa of ordinary carbon steel. When subjected to external impact, it can withstand greater pressure. For example, the compressive strength test results of the TP300 barrel show that under the vertical pressure of a 150 kg weight, the barrel body deformation is only 1.2 mm, while the deformation of the same specification plastic barrel can reach 8-10 mm. This high-strength material ensures that the barrel is not easily damaged during transportation and stacking. Even if it is frequently subjected to mechanical impact or heavy object squeezing in an industrial environment, it can still maintain its original shape, ensuring the safe storage and transportation of the contents and reducing the risk of leakage caused by barrel body deformation.

   
   

3. Accurate capacity: The capacity design of Small Stainless Steel Pail is accurate and standardized. Each model has a clear capacity marking, and the error range is controlled within ±3%. Taking the TP250 model as an example, the marked capacity is 9.7 liters, and the actual capacity test result is 9.98 liters. This precise capacity control is due to advanced mold manufacturing technology and strict production quality inspection. In industrial production, this precise capacity can ensure that chemical reagents, food raw materials, etc. are prepared in accurate proportions; in laboratory environments, it can provide a reliable capacity reference for the storage of experimental reagents, avoiding inaccurate experimental results due to capacity deviation, and at the same time facilitate users to accurately select the appropriate model according to actual needs, so as to achieve efficient use of space and resources.

   
   

4. Easy to clean: Small Stainless Steel Pail has good cleanability, thanks to its smooth stainless steel surface. The surface roughness of stainless steel is generally less than 0.8 microns, making it difficult for dirt and bacteria to adhere. After use, just rinse with clean water or wipe with a small amount of detergent to quickly restore the clean state. Under the cleaning conditions of 60℃ hot water and 0.5% neutral detergent, the cleaning efficiency of the TP280 model barrel can reach 98.7%, which can shorten the cleaning time by 0.4% compared with plastic barrels with a surface roughness of 2-3 microns. This cleanliness advantage is particularly significant in fields with strict hygiene requirements such as food processing and medical and health care. Its smooth surface can also effectively reduce detergent residues, reduce the risk of secondary contamination caused by detergent residues, and ensure that the hygiene of the barrel meets industry standards.

   
   

5. Lightweight: Small Stainless Steel Pail is relatively light while ensuring strength. Taking the common TP350 model as an example, its deadweight is about 1.85 kg, which is 35% lighter than the carbon steel barrel of the same specification, and will not bring too much burden to the user during transportation. According to ergonomic tests, an adult can only carry a 1.85 kg barrel in one hand and walk 30 meters continuously, and the fatigue of carrying the same specification carbon steel barrel can increase by 38%. Compared with barrels of the same capacity made of traditional materials, stainless steel reduces the weight of the barrel by optimizing the design and processing technology while ensuring structural stability. In scenarios where frequent transportation is required, such as raw material transportation in food processing plants and small tool transportation on construction sites, its light weight can greatly reduce work intensity, improve work efficiency, and facilitate flexible use in different locations.

   
   

6. Precise dimensions: The dimensions of Small Stainless Steel Pail are precisely designed and standardized. Each model has clear diameter and height data, and the dimensional tolerance is controlled within ±1.5 mm. Take the TP400 model as an example. The diameter is marked as 400 meters, the actual measured diameter is 400.3 mm, the height is marked as 340 mm, and the actual height is 338.7 mm. This precise dimensional control is due to high-precision stamping and welding processes. In industrial automation production lines, this precise size can ensure that the barrel fits perfectly with other equipment or tools. For example, in automatic filling equipment, the diameter and height tolerance of the barrel must be controlled within 2 mm to ensure filling accuracy. The TP series barrels fully meet this requirement. In a laboratory environment, when paired with a specific experimental device, the accurate barrel body size can ensure its smooth placement and use, providing accurate dimensional solutions for various application scenarios and meeting the requirements for dimensional accuracy in different occasions.

   
   

7. Temperature resistance: Small Stainless Steel Pail has excellent temperature resistance and can maintain stable performance over a wide temperature range. The temperature resistance range of stainless steel is usually between -40℃ and 200℃, which is much higher than the -20℃ to 80℃ of plastic materials. In a freezing environment of -20℃, the impact strength of the TP310 barrel can still reach 58 J, which is only 6.5% lower than 62 J at room temperature, while the impact strength of plastic barrels will decrease by 35% - 40% under the same conditions. In a high temperature environment of 120℃, the dimensional change rate of stainless steel barrels is only 0.03%, while that of plastic barrels can reach 1.2% - 1.8%. This temperature resistance allows it to be used normally in scenarios such as food cooking, industrial high-temperature sterilization, and temporary storage of chemical high-temperature raw materials, avoiding deformation, rupture or release of harmful substances due to temperature changes, and ensuring the safety and quality of the contents.

   
   

8. Anti-static: Small Stainless Steel Pail has good anti-static properties. The surface resistivity of stainless steel is generally between 10⁶ Ω·cm and 10⁹ Ω·cm, which is much lower than the 10¹¹ Ω·cm specified by the anti-static standard. In a dry environment, the static decay time of the TP250 barrel is only 0.8 seconds, while the static decay time of an ordinary plastic barrel can reach 15-20 seconds. This anti-static property can effectively prevent static electricity accumulation and avoid the risk of fire or explosion caused by static sparks. On the electronic component production line, it can prevent static electricity from absorbing dust and impurities and protect electronic components from static electricity damage; in the chemical raw material storage area, it can reduce the safety hazards caused by static electricity and ensure the safety of the operating environment. It is especially suitable for the temporary storage and transportation of flammable and explosive items, providing reliable safety protection for high-risk environments.

   
   

9. Deodorization: Small Stainless Steel Pail has good deodorization. The porous structure of stainless steel can absorb and decompose odor molecules. According to the test, after storing onion-smelling food in the TP300 barrel for 24 hours, the residual onion odor concentration inside the barrel was only 12.3% of the initial concentration, while the odor concentration in the plastic barrel could reach 65% - 70%. Under the environment of 40℃ and 60% relative humidity, the adsorption efficiency of the stainless steel barrel for common odor molecules (such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia) can reach 89%, and the chromium oxide layer on the surface can catalyze and decompose some odor molecules into odorless substances. This deodorizing performance can effectively reduce the residual odor when storing items in places such as kitchens and bathrooms, keep the environment fresh, and avoid the odors between different contents, ensuring that the food and cleaning products stored in the barrel can maintain the original odor quality and improve the user experience.

   
   

10. Anti-aging: Small Stainless Steel Pail exhibits excellent anti-aging performance. The aging rate of stainless steel in the natural environment is extremely low, and the chromium oxide film on its surface can self-repair. After 180 days of outdoor exposure, the glossiness of the TP400 barrel decreased by only 3.2%, and the mechanical properties (such as tensile strength) decreased by no more than 2.5%, while the glossiness of the plastic barrel decreased by 25% - 30%, and the tensile strength decreased by 15% - 20%. This anti-aging property enables it to maintain a stable appearance and performance during long-term use. Even in harsh outdoor environments or under long-term ultraviolet radiation, it is not prone to fading, brittleness, cracking and other problems, reducing the frequency of replacement due to material aging, extending the service life of the product, reducing long-term maintenance costs, and ensuring that it can always function stably in various application scenarios.
