Manufacturing process of stainless steel buckets : spinning
The technology used to manufacture a bucket is spinning.
Spinning allows to obtain conical parts which are difficult to obtain by stamping. With spinning, the thickness of the steel sheets remains practically constant, i.e. the wall of the bucket has almost the same thickness all over the entire height.
Spinning enables a part to be formed progressively using a tool called a mandrel, which works in rotation. This technology is used in many industrial fields.
The range of buckets retailed by Stellinox therefore presents stainless steel buckets manufactured using the spinning technology, and offers you stainless steel buckets made from a single piece. This avoids any risk of rust at the bottom of the bucket, which is a key criterion for dry toilet buckets. The eyelets, which allow the bucket handle to be fitted, are integrated into the mass (no welding). The stainless-steel buckets are made of stainless steel 304 (stainless steel 18/10), which guarantees better corrosion resistance.
There are two kinds of bucket: with or without bottom. The buttom isolates the bucket from the ground and also makes it easier to hold the bucket when you want to pour it, as it can be grasped from below. This bottom is also known as a "banding strap foot".
