Bürkle Wide-Neck HDPE Canister with 3/4" Threaded Outlet
The Bürkle Wide-Neck Canister is a durable, UV-stabilized HDPE container designed for convenient filling, storage, transport, dispensing, and settling applications in laboratories, food production, industrial facilities, chemical processing, and other controlled environments.
A large 88 mm filling opening provides easy access for filling and internal cleaning, while the G 3/4" male threaded outlet located just above the base allows a compatible dispensing tap or other 3/4" female-thread accessory to be installed for controlled liquid dispensing.
Available in 6 L, 11 L, 20 L, and 30 L sizes, this combined listing allows Canadian buyers to select the capacity that best matches their storage, dispensing, process, or settling requirements.

Why Choose the Bürkle Wide-Neck Canister?
- Wide 88 mm filling opening: Makes it easier to transfer liquids into the container and provides much better access for internal cleaning than a conventional narrow-neck container.
- 3/4" threaded dispensing outlet: The G 3/4" male outlet sits close to the bottom of the canister and accepts compatible taps or accessories with a 3/4" female connection.
- Useful for decanting: The low outlet allows liquid to be removed without tipping the entire container.
- Settling-canister capability: Suspended material can be allowed to settle while clarified liquid is withdrawn from above the sediment layer through the lower outlet.
- UV-stabilized HDPE: Designed to provide durable container performance during routine storage and handling.
- Captive screw closure: The large closure is attached to the container with a safety strap to help prevent it from being misplaced.
- Grip grooves: Molded grip areas at the base improve handling when transporting, filling, or emptying the canister.
- Multiple capacities: Choose from compact 6 L and 11 L versions or larger 20 L and 30 L containers.
- Canadian purchasing support: Available from Cambridge Environmental Products with CAD pricing and support for Canadian laboratories and industrial customers.
3/4" Threaded Outlet for Controlled Dispensing
Each canister includes a G 3/4" male threaded connection located just above the base. A compatible dispensing tap, stopcock, closure cap, or other accessory with a matching female thread can be installed to create a controlled liquid-dispensing system.
This makes the canister particularly useful when liquids need to be withdrawn repeatedly without opening or tipping the main container.
Spigot Sold Separately
The canister includes the threaded outlet but does not automatically include a dispensing tap unless specifically stated in the selected product configuration. Confirm the required spigot or closure accessory before ordering.
Useful as a Settling or Decanting Canister
The Bürkle wide-neck canister can also be used as a settling container. A liquid sample or process mixture can remain undisturbed while suspended material settles toward the bottom of the container.
The outlet is positioned above the base so clarified liquid can be drained while helping reduce disturbance of sediment accumulated below the outlet.
This can be useful for environmental, wastewater, process-development, production, and laboratory workflows that involve simple settling, clarification, or decanting steps.
6 L and 11 L Additional Pouring Spout
The 6 L and 11 L versions include an additional approximately 18 mm diameter spout. Bürkle describes this opening as useful for controlled removal of smaller amounts of liquid and for venting during filling.
The 20 L and 30 L versions do not include this additional 18 mm opening, so buyers should take this difference into account when selecting a capacity.

Chemical Compatibility Note
HDPE is compatible with many laboratory and industrial liquids, but compatibility depends on the specific chemical, concentration, temperature, exposure time, and all wetted materials in the container and dispensing system. Confirm chemical compatibility before storing or dispensing aggressive chemicals, solvents, or other hazardous liquids.

Cambridge offers this threaded-outlet version in 6 L, 11 L, 20 L, and 30 L capacities.
What size is the filling opening?
The canister has an approximately 88 mm wide filling opening, providing easier access for filling and internal cleaning.
Does the canister have a dispensing connection?
Yes. A G 3/4" male threaded outlet is located just above the base for connection to a compatible dispensing tap or accessory.
Is the dispensing tap included?
The threaded connection is part of the canister. A dispensing spigot or other outlet accessory should be ordered separately unless specifically included in the selected configuration.

Yes. Bürkle specifically identifies the design as suitable for settling applications because clarified liquid can be drained through the lower outlet while helping avoid disturbing sediment at the bottom.
What material is the canister made from?
The container is manufactured from UV-stabilized high-density polyethylene (HDPE).
Do all sizes have the additional 18 mm pouring spout?
No. The 6 L and 11 L versions include the additional 18 mm opening. The 20 L and 30 L versions do not.
Can I use it with chemicals?
HDPE is compatible with many chemicals, but suitability depends on the specific substance, concentration, temperature, exposure time, and all wetted materials. Always confirm chemical compatibility before use.
