than one and one-third times around the circumference of the can or drum.

(b) Enclosure B. Each unit container shall be placed in a tin or terneplate slip cover or
multiple friction cover closure can conforming to the general packing requirements of a 1A2 conĆ
tainer of 49 CFR or ICAO-TDGA, as applicable and to type V or type VI, class 2 of
PPP-C-96. The can shall be coated in accordance with plan B of PPP-C-96 with side seam
striped. The can shall be tightly closed and sealed with with a secondary closure. The secondary
closure shall consist of a shrinkable plastic sleeve. Unit containers shall be cushioned with verĆ
miculite as specified for enclosure A.

(c) Enclosure C. Each unit container shall be placed in a two-part expanded polystyĆ
rene case conforming to the general packing requirements of a 4H1 container of 49 CFR or
ICAO-TDGA, as applicable.

3.3.1.2 Type II, class 1 - metal cans. Metal cans shall conform to the general packing requireĆ
