American Hunter 55 Gallon Metal Lid with Springs

American Hunter 55 Gallon Metal Lid with Springs

Protect your feed investment from wind, rain, and critters with the American Hunter 55 Gallon Metal Lid with Springs — a heavy-duty steel replacement lid built to keep your barrel feeder sealed tight, day after day, all season long.

This lid solves two common problems with cheaper feeder lids: it eliminates water pooling on top, which can lead to rust, rot, and contaminated feed, and it holds itself open on the side of the barrel while you're filling, so you don't need a free hand or a way to prop it up. Two included springs keep the lid securely fastened to the feeder during normal use, giving wind, rain, and hungry critters nothing to grab onto and pry open.

Made from high-quality steel, this lid is built to be outside 24/7, 365 days a year, holding up to sun, storms, and repeated opening and closing without warping or wearing out. It fits standard 55-gallon drums, whether you're using it on a dedicated feeder barrel or repurposing a barrel for feed storage or trash containment at deer camp.

Whether your original lid has rusted through, bent, or gone missing entirely, or you're completing a DIY 55-gallon feeder build, the American Hunter Metal Lid with Springs gives you a durable, weatherproof, easy-to-use solution that protects your feed and keeps your feeder running the way it should.
