The drum storage safety cabinet by Eagle HAZ1955X is a hazardous storage cabinet that has two doors that close manually and can be used to store two 55-gallon drums containing flammable or hazardous liquids.
Made of 18-gauge galvanized steel, it is resistant to rust, dents, and certain chemicals.
Gauge is a measure of thickness (the lower the gauge, the thicker the material).
The cabinet's top, sides, doors, and bottom are double-walled, with 1-1/2 inches of space between the walls, to reduce the risk of fires.
The yellow powder-coated finish resists scratches, chipping, fading, and other wear.
A top shelf that is 14-3/4 inches deep can be used to store safety cans or accessories.
The cabinet doors are kept securely shut by a three-point key lock and button latch.
The cabinet is attached with continuous piano hinges, which are more secure than typical butt hinges.
The door sill is 2 inches high to help keep out moisture.
Drum rollers enable the drums to be rolled in and out of the cabinet.
Two 2-inch vents allow internal vapors to escape, with each vent having a fire baffle and cap to help prevent liquids inside the cabinet from igniting.
A ground connection facilitates grounding and helps prevent static sparks.
The cabinet has four adjustable feet to enable leveling.
A safety warning label in English, French, and Spanish alerts users to the cabinet's contents.
The cabinet measures 65 x 58 x 31-1/2 inches (H x W x D), weighs 575 pounds, and can store two 55-gallon drums containing flammable or hazardous liquids.
(H is height, the vertical distance from lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back.) This product meets Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Standard 1910.106 and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Code 30 for the safe storage and handling of flammable liquids.
It is FM Approved for quality assurance.
The cabinet is suitable for use with a drum cabinet ramp (sold separately).
