Dry Bulk Container Features New Release Valves

By Staff -- Logistics Management, 2/1/1999

Spin-Cast Plastics Inc., a Quixote Corp. Co., has introduced the DRI-BC, a dry intermediate bulk container with a removable, seamless polyethylene liner. The new DRI-BC offers a choice of three different material-release valves at a lower price than traditional dry-bulk containers, says the manufacturer.

The DRI-BC Standard model comes complete with an upgraded eight-inch iris valve. An eight-inch stainless-steel gate is available on the DRI-BC Economy model, and the DRI-BC E-Z Clean model features an eight-inch iris valve with a quick-disconnect clamp.

Each model is designed with a 60-degree sloped bottom, allowing materials to flow freely through the unit. Both the Economy and Standard DRI-BC have 16-inch lids, while the E-Z Clean has a 22-inch lid.133
