A protective skirt for a barrel or other container. The assembly includes a cylindrical skirt made of resilient material which is bonded to the outer surface of a stamped metal backing ring. The inner and outer annular edges of the ring project beyond the corresponding edges of the skirt and are welded to the dome-shaped head of the barrel or container. The inner peripheral surface of the skirt is formed with a groove which acts as a hinge point to prevent buckling of the skirt under heavy impact. The resilient skirt will substantially increase the service life of the barrel or container by cushioning impact during handling, and the welded backing ring acts to reinforce the head area of the barrel.
