Abstract
A composite steel-jacketed plastic barrel has a cylindrical sheet steel shell with a lower sheet steel bottom flanged thereto, and a plastic lining which comprises the upper end of the barrel and has bungholes through that upper end. Both the upper end of the lining and the upper end of the shell have radially outwardly extending flanges thereon; and a detachable clamping ring releasably interconnects these flanges, so that either the steel component or the plastic component can be separately used or replaced. The construction permits saving of the plastic material of the lining, in that the thickness thereof decreases uniformly from top to bottom.
