Hudson Exchange 1 Gallon Wide Mouth Plastic Jar with Cap, HDPE, Natural, 4 Pack

Description

Product Overview

The Hudson Exchange 1‑gallon wide mouth plastic jar is engineered from high‑density polyethylene (HDPE), a material renowned for its impact resistance, chemical compatibility, and long‑term durability. Each jar measures approximately 13 × 13 × 11 inches and weighs 2.1 pounds, offering ample volume for bulk liquids, powders, or granular substances while remaining easy to handle. The wide mouth design facilitates effortless filling, dispensing, and cleaning, reducing the risk of spills and contamination. A secure 89 mm black polypropylene cap equipped with a polyethylene foam liner creates a tight, leak‑proof seal that protects contents from moisture, vapor, and external contaminants. The jars are supplied in a 4‑pack carton, each unit paired with its own cap, ensuring you have a complete set ready for immediate deployment in laboratory, environmental, or industrial settings.

Usage

These jars excel in a variety of professional environments. In research laboratories, they serve as reliable containers for reagents, solvents, and sample collections, allowing scientists to maintain sample integrity over extended periods. Environmental testing facilities appreciate the robust HDPE construction for storing water samples, soil extracts, and air filter media, where the tight‑seal cap prevents evaporation and cross‑contamination. Manufacturing plants use the jars for bulk storage of lubricants, cleaning agents, and specialty chemicals, benefiting from the jars’ resistance to harsh substances and their ability to withstand temperature fluctuations. The wide mouth also simplifies the addition of solid materials such as powders or granules, making the jars suitable for formulation work, quality‑control sampling, and inventory management. Because the caps feature a foam liner, the containers can be stacked securely, optimizing shelf space in cramped laboratory benches or storage cabinets.
