A 200-litre drum (known as a 55-gallon drum in the United States and a 44-gallon drum in the United Kingdom and the rest of the world) is a cylindrical container with a nominal capacity of 200 litres (55 US or 44 imp gal). The exact capacity varies by manufacturer, purpose, or other factors.
The black drum was first formally described as Labrus cromis by Carl Linnaeus in 1766 with one of its type localities given as Carolina. In 1801 the Bernard Germain de Lacépède described a new species, Pogonias fasciatus, without giving a type locality but it is thought to be Charleston, South Carolina, [2] and placed it a new monospecific genus, Pogonias.
The most common IBC size 1000L fits on a single pallet of similar dimensions to pallets which hold 4 drums (200L), providing an extra 120L of product in the IBC over drum storage, a 12% increase for the same storage footprint. Additionally, IBCs can be manufactured to a customer's exact requirements in terms of capacity, dimensions, and material.
The size of a cylindrical drum such as a snare drum, tom or bass drum is commonly expressed as diameter x depth, both in inches. However, this convention is not universally adopted. For example, 14 x 5 is a common snare drum size. However, some manufacturers use the opposite convention, and put the depth first, so they would call this size 5 x 14.

Investment casting is used with almost any castable metal. However, aluminium alloys, copper alloys, and steel are the most common. In industrial use, the size limits are 3 g (0.1 oz) to several hundred kilograms. [23] The cross-sectional limits are 0.6 mm (0.024 in) to 75 mm (3.0 in).
