The stainless steel tap with barrel thread is designed for safe and controlled liquid transfer from barrels and IBC containers.
The combination of a high-quality stainless steel ball valve (AISI 304) and durable connection materials ensures a long service life, chemical resistance, and reliable sealing.
The versions with S56x4 and S70x6 threads have a valve body made of AISI 304 stainless steel and a connection made of PP (polypropylene) – ideal for diesel, AdBlue®, water, and light chemicals.
The version with R2" thread has a construction made entirely of stainless steel, with the connection made of AISI 316 stainless steel – ideal for demanding applications with oils, solvents, or more aggressive media.
