Pro Barrel
Remote fuel delivery, storage & dispensing with Pro Barrel® collapsible drums
The Pro Barrel® is a collapsible aerial fuel transport container designed specifically for aerial delivery of fuel to remote locations. Available in four sizes (55, 110, 250 & 500 gallons), Pro Barrels are an excellent choice for a wide variety of industrial and defense operations that require safe delivery, storage and dispensing of fuel in hard-to reach places. Meets or exceeds Mil-D-23119-D specs.
Constructed with multiple layers of ballistic nylon cord, a rugged rubberized polymer coating, and environmental protective top coat, Pro Barrels have been successfully deployed to some of the harshest environments on the planet. Suitable for use with hydrocarbon fuels (gasoline, diesel, AVGAS, oil, kerosene, etc.), these barrels can be pressure filled to 5 PSI and then collapsed to a fraction of their size for storage and transport.
Pro Barrels consist of a heavy duty fuel resistant laminated construction that is extremely robust. The outer top coat provides an environmental barrier against weather, UV, and abrasion. All flanges are industrial grade, heavy duty treated steel with welded lift attachments and threaded connections. View the Pro Barrel Brochure
