Product Overview
A square 5 gallon (18.9 litre) headpack for truckmount chemical.
Square, not round — the flat sides are the point. It sits in a truckmount jug rack without rolling, and square jugs pack into a van without wasting the space between them.
A Note on Capacity
This page previously showed the capacity as 20 litres. The correct figure is 5 US gallons, which is 18.9 litres. Corrected.
Securing It
A full jug is around 20 kilograms of liquid. Loose in a van it slides on corners and tips on hills, and a split jug of concentrate is a much bigger problem than a lost jug of chemical. See the 5 Gallon Floor Mounted Jug Holder (AC198).
A spigot is available for this headpack as a separate item. Contact us if you want to draw from it in place rather than lift it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it 20 litres?

Is it food grade or chemical rated?
Not stated by the manufacturer. Contact us if you need a specific rating.

What We See in the Field
The five-gallon chemical jug tends to become invisible once it's strapped into the van, and cracked caps, contaminated pickups and sludge can go unnoticed for ages. Keep the pickup end off the bottom sediment, clean the jug periodically and label what lives in it.
