Abstract (en)

A drum liner (1) locking and locating apparatus is provided for securing a drum liner to a drum (3). The drum liner apparatus primarily comprises a fitting (2), a liner (14), and a non-releasable securing means (20). The fitting (2) is passed through an opening (32) in the lid (30) of a drum (3) before the lid (30) is attached to the drum (3). The fitting (2) can only be passed through the opening (32) so that the liner (14) is in a position that the liner (14) can expand to the full size of the drum (3). After the fitting (2) is in place, the non-releasable securing means (20) fastens the fitting (2) to the drum (3) raising the drum liner to the top of the drum (3). Consequently, to remove the drum liner (14), the top of the drum (3) must be removed destroying the drum (3) and prohibiting reconditioning or reuse of the drum (3). <IMAGE>
