Description
Extremely wide-neck barrel, 55 l is a larger laboratory storage vessel intended for bulk holding, transfer and handling of powders, solids and compatible liquids in analytical, process and pilot-scale settings. The extra-wide neck facilitates rapid filling and emptying as well as easy access with scoops or tools, reducing handling time and residual product left in the container. Presented in brown with a beige screw cap, the barrel is easy to distinguish from other vessels in mixed storage areas. Offered as one piece and weighing 2,902 kg, it provides substantial capacity while remaining suitable for controlled laboratory movement. This container from manufacturer CurTec fits carboy and barrel applications where a wide opening improves ergonomics and cleaning. Common placements include intermediate storage of raw materials, buffer salts, media components and process intermediates prior to aliquoting or further processing. The screw-cap closure supports secure short-term storage and internal transport between preparation rooms and workstations. The 55 l size is useful when larger batch volumes must be kept together without repeated transfer into smaller bottles.

Questions about Extremely wide-neck barrel, 55 l, Brown with a beige screw cap, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Extremely wide-neck barrel, 55 l, Brown with a beige screw cap, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes CurTec 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.
