Connect Pumps and Discharge Cocks to Different Container Threads
Container threads are not always standardized across drums and canisters. Burkle's thread adapters provide a practical way to bridge different thread standards so that compatible pumps, discharge taps, and other accessories can be securely connected.
The 0600-1001 specifically converts between an S 64×5 external thread and an S 71×6 (DIN71) internal thread. This makes the exact thread configuration critical when selecting this adapter.
Thread Configuration
| Connection | Specification |
|---|---|
| External thread | S 64×5 |
| Internal thread | S 71×6 (DIN71) |
Important: Thread adapters must be matched by thread type, diameter, pitch, and thread direction/configuration. Do not select this adapter based on nominal diameter alone. Verify the thread on both the container and the equipment before ordering.

Typical Applications
The Burkle 0600-1001 is intended for applications where equipment and containers use different thread standards. Burkle specifically describes its thread adapters for mounting pumps on drums or canisters and for connecting pumps and discharge cocks to a variety of containers.
| Application | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Drum connections | Adapt compatible S-thread connections between drums and equipment |
| Canister connections | Connect compatible pumps or dispensing equipment to containers with different threads |
| Pump installation | Provide a compatible threaded interface for pumps |
| Liquid dispensing | Adapt container threads for compatible discharge taps and accessories |
| Laboratory setups | Create adaptable threaded connections for experimental or process equipment |
How to Select the Correct Thread Adapter
Choosing the correct thread adapter requires more than matching the apparent diameter. Burkle recommends determining the container's outer or inner diameter and thread pitch, then matching the thread type to the appropriate adapter.
As a general rule, an external container thread requires an adapter with an internal thread, while an internal container thread requires an adapter with an external thread. The thread type, pitch, and diameter must all be compatible.
For 0600-1001: Confirm that the equipment side requires an S 64×5 external thread and that the mating container or component has the corresponding S 71×6 (DIN71) external thread for the adapter's internal side.
Material and Chemical Compatibility
The adapter is manufactured primarily from polypropylene (PP), with FKM/FPM fluorine rubber specified as an additional material.
Material compatibility depends on the liquid, concentration, temperature, and application conditions. Verify the chemical resistance of the adapter materials against the intended medium before use. Burkle specifically advises checking material resistance for the medium and application.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Burkle 0600-1001 thread adapter connect?
The 0600-1001 provides an S 64×5 external thread and an S 71×6 (DIN71) internal thread, allowing compatible components using those thread standards to be connected.
What is the Burkle 0600-1001 made from?
The primary material is polypropylene (PP). Burkle also specifies FKM/FPM fluorine rubber as a further material.
What is the Burkle 0600-1001 used for?
It is used to adapt different thread standards when connecting compatible pumps, discharge cocks, drums, canisters, and other liquid-handling equipment.
Is S 71×6 the same as G 2"?
No. S 71×6 (DIN71) and G 2" are different thread standards and should not be treated as interchangeable simply because their dimensions may appear similar. Use the exact thread designation when selecting an adapter.
How do I know if I need the 0600-1001?
Confirm the thread type, diameter, and pitch of both mating components. The 0600-1001 is appropriate only when its S 64×5 external and S 71×6 internal threads match the required connections.
