Description
Cross drum key (steel) is a sturdy hand tool engineered for effortless opening of common drum and barrel closures according to the cross-wheel principle. Fabricated entirely from steel, it provides the mechanical leverage needed to loosen or tighten standard bung fittings found on laboratory and industrial drums. Overall dimensions are 255 × 255 × 45 mm, giving a comfortable grip span while remaining compact enough for storage in safety cabinets or tool drawers. The robust construction withstands repeated use in chemical stores, solvent handling areas and waste-collection points. Supplied by manufacturer Asecos, the key is intended for routine laboratory logistics where secure and rapid access to drum contents is required. Net weight is 0,700 kg, offering a solid feel without excessive bulk. Typical applications include opening solvent drums, reagent barrels and waste containers in research, production and teaching environments. The cross design engages multiple common closure types, reducing the need for several specialised wrenches. This single-piece steel tool supports safe and efficient drum handling as part of everyday laboratory material management.

Questions about Cross barrel key (steel)
What is this article?
Cross barrel key (steel) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes asecos for laboratory use. It sits in Canisters & jerrycans, inside Bottles & containers, in Labware.
A canister or jerrycan holds litres, not millilitres, and it is shaped to be carried and to pour. The material has to survive the liquid for the whole time the can sits in the store.
A laboratory bottle is a closed container with a stated volume and a neck that takes a cap, a stopper or a dispenser. Borosilicate glass is the choice when the liquid is a solvent, or when the bottle will be heated or autoclaved. Polyethylene and polypropylene are the choice when the bottle must not shatter, or when hydrofluoric acid would attack glass. A narrow mouth pours. A wide mouth is for powders and for reaching the bottom. Laboratory ware of this kind is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware. Traceable volume sits with the BIPM and NIST Physical Measurement.
