<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="#1f497d">Our herpetology division has been using the polycarbonate pails for temporary storage of incoming material from the field. They are great in that they are clear and as such contents are visible easily (not sure what
effect light has on specimens due to this) BUT they do not seal well at all - no gasket or positive seal of any kind. They leak if tipped. Not sure if a gasket could be inserted into the lid to create such a seal – maybe a modified tank gasket from Delta
or Steel Fixtures? <o:p></o:p></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="#1f497d"><o:p> </o:p></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="#1f497d">As for lids for oversized jars, you may want to check Kols Containers who have, in the past, indicated that these are still available. Try contacting Judy Bounds at (401) 646-2300 or
<a href="mailto:jbounds@kolscontainers.com">jbounds@kolscontainers.com</a>. We too have some of those larger glass crocks that we guard with our life as they are not available anywhere

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We need to replace some of our white plastic/HDPE buckets (2 to 5 gallon size) that hold fluid-preserved vertebrate specimens. We also have some large glass pickle jars from the 1960s (approx 3 gallon size with neck handles). These have
metal lids that need replacing. The old lids are larger than 120mm size. <o:p>
</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am wondering if anyone has experienced problems with or has further advice about polycarbonate plastic pails and lids that were recommended several years ago?
