The Burkle Spigot "Brass" 0535-0010 is a self-closing brass drum tap designed for draining liquids from compatible drums and containers. It features a G 3/4" external thread, NBR seals, a piston-valve design, and a low flow rate for controlled dispensing.
Burkle specifically identifies this spigot as a barrel tap for petrochemical liquids. Its self-closing design automatically closes when it is no longer being operated, providing increased safety during liquid dispensing.
Burkle SKU: 0535-0010
Connection: G 3/4" external thread
Material: Brass
Seal material: NBR
Valve type: Piston valve

The Burkle 0535-0010 is designed for controlled liquid removal from drums and containers. The self-closing piston valve closes independently when the tap is no longer being operated, helping reduce the risk of accidentally leaving the outlet open.
Burkle identifies the product specifically as a barrel tap for petrochemical liquids. For any particular liquid, compatibility should be confirmed based on the brass construction and NBR seals before use.

The 0535-0010 uses a G 3/4" external thread. This connection specification should be matched to the threaded opening on the drum, barrel, container, or adapter being used.
Compatibility note: Confirm the complete threaded connection and container configuration before ordering. A nominal G 3/4" connection should not be assumed to be compatible with every similarly sized threaded opening.
| Application | Use |
|---|---|
| Drum dispensing | Drain liquids from compatible drums and containers |
| Barrel dispensing | Controlled manual dispensing from barrels |
| Petrochemical liquids | Barrel-tap applications identified by Burkle for petrochemical liquids |
| Industrial liquid handling | Controlled liquid removal from compatible storage containers |
The spigot is manufactured from brass with NBR seals. Compatibility depends on the specific liquid, concentration, temperature, and operating conditions.
For chemical or industrial applications, verify that both brass and NBR are suitable for the intended medium before use. Burkle provides chemical-resistance information for its products that should be consulted when evaluating compatibility.
Important safety information: When handling flammable or highly flammable liquids, follow applicable explosion-protection requirements. Burkle states that all parts must be grounded, for example using an appropriate antistatic kit.
Burkle also offers a stainless steel spigot as an alternative to the brass 0535-0010. The stainless steel version uses AISI 304 stainless steel, PTFE/FKM seals, and includes additional features such as a rotatable outlet and lockable design.
For applications where the brass construction and NBR seals are appropriate, the 0535-0010 provides a straightforward self-closing drum tap. If material compatibility or locking/adjustable outlet features are important, the stainless steel alternative may be worth considering.
The spigot has a G 3/4" external thread.
Yes. The manufacturer specifies a self-closing piston-valve design.
The main material is brass, with NBR used as the seal material.
The manufacturer specifies an outlet outside diameter of 22 mm.
It is a drum and barrel tap for draining liquids from compatible drums and containers. Burkle specifically identifies it as a barrel tap for petrochemical liquids.
No. Chemical compatibility depends on the liquid and operating conditions. The compatibility of both brass and NBR with the intended medium should be confirmed before use.
