An IBC adapter is an adapter specially made for an IBC container. The IBC adapter serves as a connection point from which you can easily and precisely extract the contents of an IBC container or connect a hose. IBC Adapters serve as transition couplings from coarse to fine threads. The adapter has internal threads on one side for connection to a tank. On the other side, there is a reduced internal thread. In addition to IBC Adapters with internal threads, we also sell IBC Adapters with external threads. You can also find taps designed for IBC drums at our store.
An IBC is a large industrial container designed for storing or transporting liquids, semi-solid substances, pastes, or solids. An IBC container is made with a steel framework and has a pallet at the bottom, allowing for easy movement using a forklift or pallet jack. The container itself is made of plastic. An IBC adapter is an adapter specially made for an IBC container. The IBC adapter serves as a connection point from which you can easily and precisely extract the contents of an IBC container or connect a hose.
IBC stands for Intermediate Bulk Container. These are packaging containers used as an intermediate form between barrels and bulk transportation (truck transport, shipping containers, or boat transport). IBCs can still be manipulated using forklifts or pallet jacks but are no longer manageable by hand like barrels.
The rubber sealing ring ensures a watertight and airtight connection. The adapter is made of polypropylene, abbreviated as PP, and is virtually unbreakable and resistant to wear and impact.
Polypropylene is a plastic with many advantages. Polypropylene is relatively hard, rigid, and strong compared to other plastics. It does not absorb moisture and is lightweight. Polypropylene is also the most environmentally friendly plastic. Polypropylene does not decompose in nature but is 100% recyclable. The downside of polypropylene is that it is somewhat more expensive than other plastics.
Lightweight No moisture absorption Odorless and tasteless Chemical resistance Environmentally friendly Strong and impact-resistant Different Models of IBC Adapters
