Drum Lids, Closure Rings, Bolts and Gaskets

Rain Barrels

Rain Barrel KitUsed Pepper BarrelsUsed open head poly drums make excellent rain barrels. They may also be used to store animal feed, as well as other uses. Our open head plastic pepper drums (pictured here) had contained jalapeño peppers. They have not been washed out and do retain the smell.

We also stock a rain barrel kit which will allow you to easily convert these barrels to rain barrels. The rain barrel conversion kits consist of one ¾” bulkhead fitting, one 1.5” bulkhead fitting, one ¾” brass faucet and one 1.5” hose barb (for the overflow).
