Description
Wide neck barrel is a robust HDPE laboratory container designed for secure handling, storage and transport of bulk liquids and process media. With a nominal capacity of 5 l, this wide-neck design supports convenient filling, sampling and cleaning in routine laboratory and production workflows. Manufactured from high-density polyethylene, the barrel combines chemical resistance with a practical, durable construction suited to carboys, canisters and barrel applications. The unit carries the UN packaging marking 1H2/X20/S/./NL/CURTEC 2018, indicating its specification for regulated packaging use where such coding applies. Supplied as a single piece with a net weight of 0,394 kg, it fits neatly into labware inventories for media preparation, intermediate storage and material transfer. This wide neck barrel from manufacturer CurTec is intended for laboratories and technical environments that require reliable plastic vessels for aqueous and compatible process streams. Its open-neck geometry simplifies pouring and residual emptying while remaining compact enough for bench-adjacent or storage-area placement. Ideal for containers, bottles and canister setups where a sturdy 5 l HDPE barrel is required.

Questions about Wide neck barrel, HDPE, 5 l, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Wide neck barrel, HDPE, 5 l, 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.
