Everything you need to outfit, protect, and optimize your IBC totes. From replacement valves to heater blankets, we stock the accessories that keep your operation running.
An IBC tote out of the box is a versatile liquid storage container. Add the right accessories and it becomes a precision tool for your specific application. The correct valve adapter turns a storage tank into a dispensing station. A heater blanket means your operation does not shut down when Minneapolis temperatures drop below freezing. A spill pallet keeps you in compliance with EPA secondary containment regulations.
We stock all of the accessories below at our Minneapolis facility. Most items are available for same-day pickup. For specialized or bulk accessory orders, contact us and we will have your items ready within one to three business days.
Quarter-turn ball valve for clean, positive shut-off. The ball mechanism provides a full-bore opening when open and a complete seal when closed. Best for applications where you need to stop and start flow frequently, connect to hoses, or feed a pump. Polypropylene body is chemically resistant to most liquids stored in IBC totes.
Hose connections, pump feeds, precise flow control, frequent on/off cycling.
Lever-operated butterfly valve that comes standard on many IBC totes. The disc rotates 90 degrees to open or close. Offers good flow rates for gravity-feed applications and is easy to operate with one hand. The flat profile takes up minimal space beneath the tote.
Gravity dispensing, high-flow applications, viscous liquids like syrups and oils.
Quick-connect cam lock (camlock) fittings that attach to the standard 2-inch IBC outlet. Available in Type A, B, C, D, E, and F configurations. Made from polypropylene or stainless steel. Allows rapid connection and disconnection of hoses without tools.
Quick hose changes, multi-tote operations, transfer between containers.
Reduces or converts the standard S60x6 or 2" BSP IBC outlet to other thread sizes and types. Available in combinations including 3/4" garden hose, 1" NPT, 1-1/2" NPT, and metric sizes. Essential when connecting your IBC to existing plumbing or equipment.
Garden hose connections, plumbing integration, pump inlet matching.
Split a single IBC outlet into two lines with a Y-connector, or integrate into a T-junction for multi-directional flow. Each outlet includes its own shut-off valve for independent control. Useful for feeding two processes from one tote.
Dual-line feeding, irrigation manifolds, parallel process supply.
Standard replacement fill cap for the top opening of an IBC tote. Features a molded gasket for airtight and watertight seal. Available in vented and non-vented versions. Vented caps include a pressure-relief valve that prevents vacuum lock during dispensing.
Replacement for damaged or missing caps, upgrading to vented version.
Modified fill cap with an integrated pour spout and secondary cap. Allows you to pour small quantities from the top without removing the main cap. The spout has its own threaded cap to prevent spillage during storage.
Small-quantity dispensing, sampling, adding additives without full cap removal.
Heavy-duty cap designed for permanent or long-term sealing of the fill opening. Double-gasket design provides maximum sealing pressure. Used when the tote will be transported or stored for extended periods and the fill opening does not need regular access.
Long-term storage, transport sealing, hazardous material containment.
Wraparound electric heating blanket sized to fit standard 275-gallon and 330-gallon IBC totes. Thermostatically controlled with adjustable temperature settings typically ranging from 40 degrees F to 160 degrees F. Prevents freezing in cold climates and maintains viscosity for thick liquids. Insulated outer layer minimizes heat loss and energy consumption.
Freeze protection in Minnesota winters, warming viscous products like honey or oils, maintaining consistent temperature for chemical processes.
Quilted insulation wrap that fits over the IBC cage and bottle. Made from closed-cell foam sandwiched between durable fabric shells. Reduces heat loss in cold weather and slows temperature rise in hot weather. Can be used alone for passive insulation or in combination with a heater blanket for maximum thermal efficiency.
Outdoor cold-weather storage, temperature-sensitive products, energy savings when used with heater blankets.
Insulated pad that sits on top of the IBC tote, covering the fill opening and top surface. Prevents heat loss through the top of the container, which is the primary escape path for rising warm air. Secures with elastic straps around the cage frame.
Complement to side insulation jackets, heated tote setups, reducing condensation on the lid.
HDPE spill containment pallet sized for one IBC tote. Features a sump capacity of at least 275 gallons to contain the full contents of a tote in the event of a rupture. Forklift-accessible with four-way entry. Grated top surface for easy cleaning and drainage. Meets EPA and local spill containment regulations.
Chemical storage compliance, EPA secondary containment requirements, warehouse spill protection.
Side-by-side spill containment pallet for two IBC totes. Combined sump capacity handles the full volume of the larger tote. Includes removable polyethylene grates for cleaning. Forklift pockets on all four sides for easy repositioning.
Two-tote chemical storage areas, industrial loading docks, tandem dispensing stations.
Portable, fold-out spill containment berm that creates a temporary containment area around one or more IBC totes. Made from PVC-coated fabric with rigid foam walls that pop up when deployed. Folds flat for storage and transport.
Temporary job sites, field operations, outdoor events, mobile containment.
Full-coverage fitted cover made from UV-stabilized polyester that protects the entire IBC tote from sun, rain, dust, and debris. Elasticized bottom edge secures the cover to the pallet base. Significantly extends the outdoor service life of the HDPE bottle by blocking UV radiation that causes yellowing and brittleness.
Outdoor storage, UV protection, keeping debris out of fill opening area.
Lightweight cover that protects just the top of the IBC tote, keeping rain, leaves, and dust away from the fill cap and cap gasket area. Attaches with hook-and-loop straps to the cage frame. Quick to install and remove for filling.
Rainwater diversion, outdoor cap protection, preventing pooling on lid.
Replacement EPDM rubber gasket for the standard 6-inch IBC fill cap. Over time, cap gaskets compress and harden, losing their ability to seal. Replacing the gasket restores an airtight and watertight seal at the fill opening. Simple press-fit installation requires no tools.
Restoring leaking caps, preventive maintenance, preparing used totes for new service.
Complete gasket and O-ring set for the IBC discharge valve. Includes the main valve seal, body O-ring, and outlet gasket. Compatible with both butterfly and ball valve assemblies. Made from EPDM or Viton depending on chemical compatibility requirements.
Fixing valve drips, preventive valve maintenance, reconditioning used totes.
Clamp-style attachment that mounts to standard forklift forks and grips the IBC cage securely for tilting, pouring, and controlled dispensing. Allows the operator to tilt the tote forward to drain the last 10-15% of product that sits below the valve outlet. Heavy-duty steel construction rated for full 275-gallon and 330-gallon loads.
Complete drainage, controlled pouring, tilting for bottom-residue extraction.
Clip-on or magnetic label holders that attach to the IBC cage bars. Accept standard printed labels, placards, or SDS document pouches. Provide a clean, visible location for product identification, hazard communication, and lot tracking without adhering labels directly to the bottle.
Product labeling, hazard placards, SDS compliance, lot tracking.
Clamp-mounted electric or pneumatic mixer that fits through the 6-inch fill opening. The propeller blade extends into the liquid to provide continuous or batch mixing. Variable speed control allows gentle blending or vigorous agitation. Essential for products that settle, separate, or require homogenization before dispensing.
Paint mixing, chemical blending, suspension maintenance, fertilizer agitation.
