There must be neither leakage from, nor serious rupture of, any of the tested drums or of the inner receptacles they may contain. In the case of packages of explosives, no rupture is permitted. When removable-head drums intended to contain solids are subjected to a drop test in such a way as to strike the target by the head, the packaging may be regarded as having passed the test if the contents are retained intact by a device such as an inner receptacle(e. g. a plastic bag) even if the lid is no longer a leakproof fit on the head of the drum. 5, record 4, English, - drop%20test

Il ne doit y avoir aucune fuite, ni aucune rupture importante des fûts ayant subi les épreuves ou des récipients intérieurs qu'ils peuvent contenir.

Lorsque des fûts à ouverture totale destinés à contenir des solides sont soumis à l'épreuve de chute de telle façon que le fût frappe l'aire de réception sur le fond, l'emballage peut être considéré comme ayant subi l'épreuve avec succès si le contenu est retenu sans déperdition par un dispositif tel qu'un récipient intérieur, par exemple un sac en matière plastique, même si le couvercle ne demeure plus assujetti hermétiquement sur le fond du fût. 6, record 4, French, - %C3%A9preuve%20de%20chute
