Description
Canister with drain tap, HDPE, 20 L is a robust laboratory and technical storage vessel manufactured from high-density polyethylene (HDPE). The container combines a secure screw closure with an integrated drain tap, enabling controlled dispensing of liquids without tipping or pouring from the main opening. It is supplied with an open aperture prepared for the drain tap, so the fitting is ready for use once assembled. With a working capacity of 20 L and a net weight of 0,823 kg, the canister offers a practical balance of volume and handling for routine media, reagents, buffers, and process liquids in laboratory, pilot, and light industrial settings. HDPE provides good chemical resistance to many aqueous solutions and common laboratory chemicals, together with impact strength for everyday transport and storage. The compact canister format from manufacturer Labbox supports bench-side or floor placement where gravity-assisted emptying via the tap improves workflow safety and reduces spillage risk. Suitable for general liquid handling, temporary storage, and transfer tasks where a durable plastic vessel with controlled outlet is required. Pack size is 1 piece.

Questions about Drum with faucet, HDPE, 20 l
What is this article?
Drum with faucet, HDPE, 20 l is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox for laboratory use. It sits in Canisters & jerrycans, inside Bottles & containers, in Labware.
A canister or jerrycan holds litres, not millilitres, and it is shaped to be carried and to pour. The material has to survive the liquid for the whole time the can sits in the store.
A laboratory bottle is a closed container with a stated volume and a neck that takes a cap, a stopper or a dispenser. Borosilicate glass is the choice when the liquid is a solvent, or when the bottle will be heated or autoclaved. Polyethylene and polypropylene are the choice when the bottle must not shatter, or when hydrofluoric acid would attack glass. A narrow mouth pours. A wide mouth is for powders and for reaching the bottom. Laboratory ware of this kind is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware. Traceable volume sits with the BIPM and NIST Physical Measurement.
