90 mil bucket made from FDA compliant High Density PolyEthylene (HDPE). A Gamma Seal lid adapts the bucket to a threaded spin-on / spin-off lid. The Gamma Seal is customer installed but is also pre-installed on the bucket for shipping efficiency. A rubber mallet (not included) comes in handy for installing the threaded ring to the bucket. The ring seals to the rim of the bucket with an O-ring gasket. The threaded lid portion then spins off and on sealing to the ring with another O-ring gasket. The O-ring gasket has a food grade silicone lubricant the helps the O-ring not to grab the plastic sealing surfaces. If this lubricant is removed through over the top cleaning, the O-ring can grab and stretch and loose it’s retention to the lid. Plastic containers are rarely true. Leaving the lid snug for a time frame and allowing the several components to true to one another in a warmer room temperature environment can help with performance. For long term food and liquid applications we recommend a conventional snap-on lid with a gasket. The Gamma Seal shins in it’s convenience. We like the Gamma Seal for applications requiring convenient frequent access. Gammas Seals are user installed but is also per-installed for shipping efficiency.
