IBC Cap FAQ
Q: Can I use a generic cap from a hardware store on my IBC tote?
A: It is strongly discouraged. Generic caps may not provide the correct thread pitch, material compatibility, or pressure rating. Using an improper cap can lead to leaks, contamination, or even failure during transport. A certified IBC cap from a specialist like Sanlo Tank guarantees a secure fit and material integrity for your specific application.
Q: How do I know if my IBC cap needs to be replaced?
A: Regularly inspect your cap for visible cracks, warping, significant wear on the threads, or a degraded gasket. If the cap no longer screws on smoothly and tightly, or if you notice any leakage or odor escape, it’s time for an immediate replacement to maintain safety and product integrity.
Q: Are Sanlo Tank IBC caps suitable for food-grade or chemical applications?
A: Yes. Our IBC caps are manufactured from resins approved for contact with a wide range of substances. We offer specific product lines designed for food-grade compliance as well as robust chemical resistance. Always confirm the material specification (HDPE or PP) against your stored product's compatibility chart.
