Burkle PP Thread Adapter – S 61×6 (DIN 61) to S 96×8 (DIN 96)
The Burkle 0600-1009 PP Thread Adapter connects compatible container and equipment connections using two different thread standards: S 61×6 (DIN 61) external and S 96×8 (DIN 96) internal.
Made from polypropylene (PP), this thread adapter is designed to help connect pumps, container accessories and liquid-handling components to compatible drums and canisters with different thread configurations.
Important compatibility information: The 0600-1009 has an S 61×6 external thread and an S 96×8 internal thread. The mating components must have the corresponding opposite threads. Confirm both thread standards and dimensions before ordering.

Thread Configuration
| Connection | Thread standard | Configuration |
|---|---|---|
| First connection | S 61×6 (DIN 61) | External thread |
| Second connection | S 96×8 (DIN 96) | Internal thread |
Connecting DIN 61 and DIN 96 Threads
The 0600-1009 provides a transition between the S 61×6 (DIN 61) and S 96×8 (DIN 96) container thread standards. It is intended for installations where the two connection types need to be joined through a compatible adapter.
For the connection to fit correctly, the component mating with the S 61×6 side must have a compatible internal thread, while the component mating with the S 96×8 side must have a compatible external thread.
Thread Identification and Compatibility
Container thread standards can look similar while differing in diameter, pitch or thread form. Verify the actual thread dimensions rather than selecting an adapter based only on container size or opening diameter.
Before ordering:
- Confirm the S 61×6 (DIN 61) connection and its internal/external orientation.
- Confirm the S 96×8 (DIN 96) connection and its internal/external orientation.
- Check the thread diameter and pitch against the manufacturer's thread information.
- Verify that the adapter suits the container and equipment being connected.
- Check polypropylene compatibility with the liquid, concentration and operating conditions.
- Determine whether an additional seal is required for the particular connection.

Material Compatibility
The adapter is made from polypropylene (PP). Confirm chemical compatibility for the specific liquid and operating conditions before use. Do not assume suitability for every chemical based on the base material alone.
Frequently Asked Questions
What threads does Burkle 0600-1009 have?
It has an S 61×6 (DIN 61) external thread and an S 96×8 (DIN 96) internal thread.
What is the difference between DIN 61 and DIN 96?
They are different container thread designations with different dimensions. They are not directly interchangeable, which is why the correct adapter is required when connecting compatible components using these standards.
Does this adapter have a G 2" thread?
No. The 0600-1009 connects S 61×6 (DIN 61) external to S 96×8 (DIN 96) internal. It is different from Burkle adapters that use a G 2" connection.
How can I confirm whether this adapter will fit?
Check the thread designation, diameter, pitch and internal/external orientation of both mating components. If the thread is uncertain, contact Cambridge Environmental Products for assistance before ordering.
Need Help Confirming the Correct Thread Adapter?
Burkle offers thread adapters for a range of drum, canister and equipment connections. If you need help identifying a DIN 61, DIN 96 or other container thread, contact Cambridge Environmental Products before ordering.
