Frequently Asked Questions:

What are drum taps?

Drum taps are devices that screw onto drums or containers to control the release of liquids. They’re beneficial for preventing spills, minimizing waste, and safely dispensing fluids, especially when precision or controlled flow rate is required.

What materials are drum taps made of?

They’re made from plastics like polyethylene or polypropylene for chemical resistance.

How do you install it on a container?

You screw the tap directly into the drum’s threaded bung hole. No special tools are needed, but ensure the tap gasket is in place to prevent leaks.

Are drum taps food grade?

Many drum taps are indeed food grade, especially those made of certain plastics like polyethylene. Always check the product specifications to ensure the tap is certified for use with food substances.

How do you prevent leaks?

Ensure that the tap is correctly installed with all necessary washers or gaskets. Regular maintenance checks are important, and the tap should be fully closed when not in use. Teflon tape can also be used on the threads to ensure a watertight seal.

How do you clean and maintain?

Clean the tap with appropriate cleaning agents (compatible with the tap material and the liquid dispensed) after use. Regularly check for and clear any blockages, and inspect the tap for wear and tear.

How do you troubleshoot common problems like clogging or dripping?

If a tap is clogged, remove it and clean any residues with a suitable solvent. If it’s dripping, ensure it’s closed properly. If it continues to leak, replace any worn washers or the entire tap if necessary.

Can this tap be used for measuring precise volumes of liquid?

While standard drum taps don’t measure volume, flow control taps can dispense liquid at a consistent rate, which can be timed for approximate volume dispensing.
