UN-Compliant Metal Shipping Bottles with Tamper-Evident Seal

Spot tampering with a glance—a security ring separates from the lid of these bottles the first time you twist it off. Made of aluminum, these bottles resist corrosion from cleaners, solvents, and mild acids—they’re also lightweight. They are tested to meet United Nations regulations for packaging and shipping hazardous material over land, sea, or air. The regulations aim to prevent hazardous spills caused by accidents or rough handling.

Note: It is the responsibility of the shipper to follow regulatory guidelines for properly packaging and labeling all hazardous materials and ensure the appropriate method for shipping.

Liquid Nitrogen Cans


Style A	Style B

Also known as dewars, these cryogenic containers store, transport, and dispense liquid nitrogen. Welded, double-aluminum walls are vacuum-insulated to minimize evaporation and extend hold times, keeping liquid nitrogen viable longer between refills. Aluminum construction makes them significantly lighter in weight than stainless steel cans, reducing fatigue during transport and handling.

Vacuum Degassing Chambers


Aluminum with Top-Mount Gauge	Aluminum with Side-Mount Gauge

Also known as vacuum degassing chambers, these remove trapped air from mixtures such as paint and mold resins. The fittings on the hose contain a gasket that allows you to connect the hose to flared fittings.

Aluminum—Aluminum chambers are lightweight, corrosion resistant, and good for general use.

Side-Mount Gauge—Chambers with a side-mount gauge allow you to see the material inside of them when looking from the top.

Acrylic Plastic Lid—Acrylic lids are more durable than glass lids. They’re commonly used to eliminate air bubbles in hard setting materials, such as silicone and polyurethane.

Glass Lid—Glass lids resist corrosion. They’re primarily used to eliminate air bubbles in woodworking projects that use harsh chemicals, which would deteriorate plastic lids. Glass lids are less durable than acrylic lids.

Replacement Lids—Replacement lids do not include hardware or seal.

Small-Capacity Air-Powered Sprayers


Style A	Style D

Spray thin liquids evenly with just one hand. These compact sprayers don’t need propellant—fill them and pressurize with air.

Powder-Coated Aluminum Tank, Painted Aluminum Tank, and Nickel-Plated Aluminum Tank—Aluminum sprayers weigh less and are more corrosion resistant than steel sprayers, but they’re not as strong.

PTFE Seal—PTFE seals handle a broader range of chemicals than Viton® seals. They’re also more wear resistant.

Plastic Hand-Pump Sprayers

Style A

Pump the handle to pressurize the tank, then squeeze the trigger on the wand to spray. Made of lightweight plastic, the tank on these sprayers resists chemicals and impact. They’re often used for degreasers, insecticides, disinfectants, cleaning solutions, and herbicides.

Note: The material of the parts can affect a sprayer's compatibility with a chemical or solution. Make sure the tank, seal, wand, and nozzle are suitable for your application.

Warning: Face the nozzle away from you to safely release pressure from the relief valve. If there’s no relief valve, place the tank on its side with the top pointed away from you before you release.

Cone Dispensing—Sprayers with a cone nozzle are good for everyday cleaning.

Stream Dispensing—Remove stuck-on material with the stream nozzle.

Aluminum—Aluminum wands are durable but can corrode when exposed to strong chemicals.

Repair Kits—Add a repair kit to replace worn or damaged components, such as the check valve or O-rings.
