FAQs
What is the capacity of this metal bucket?
The bucket has a capacity of 12 liters.
Is the galvanized coating safe for food or drinks?
While the galvanized coating is designed to be rust-proof, it is not typically rated as food-grade. It is safe for use as a cooler for beverages on ice, but direct, prolonged contact with food is not recommended. Always wash thoroughly before and after use.
Will the bucket rust if left outside?
The galvanized coating provides excellent rust resistance. However, prolonged exposure to harsh weather conditions without proper care may eventually lead to some surface rust, especially if the coating is scratched. Storing it in a dry place when not in use is recommended.
How should I clean the bucket?
Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Avoid abrasive materials.
Can this bucket be used for hot liquids?
This bucket is designed for general purpose use and is not intended for hot liquids. High temperatures could affect the integrity of the galvanized coating and the wooden handle.
What is the material of the handle?
The handle is made of sturdy wood for a comfortable grip.
Does this product come in a pack?
Yes, this product is sold as a pack of 2 buckets.
Troubleshooting
Bucket has a slight odor upon arrival
The odor is typical for galvanized metal and will dissipate after a few uses or after being aired out. Rinse the bucket with water and mild soap before first use.
Wooden handle feels rough or splintery
The wood may have natural variations. Lightly sand the handle with fine-grit sandpaper and consider applying a food-safe sealant or wood conditioner if desired for a smoother finish.
Visible scratches on the galvanized surface
Minor scratches are normal with use and do not compromise the bucket's functionality. They may slightly increase the risk of rust in that specific area over time. Clean the scratched area and monitor for any signs of corrosion.
