Large 2-7/8" Neck Opening
The 2-7/8" neck opening provides significantly more access than a standard 1-3/4" neck can, making this container better suited for larger applicators used on bigger pipe and fitting joining surfaces.
The wider opening can make it easier to insert, remove, and reload compatible swabs or rollers during repeated solvent-cement or primer application work.
One-Gallon Capacity
The Large Mouth Empty Can provides a full one-gallon capacity, making it useful for larger jobs where more material needs to remain readily available at the work area.
The larger container size can be especially helpful during high-volume installation work where frequent refilling of smaller cans would be inconvenient.
Designed for Larger Applicators
The wide-neck configuration is intended to work with appropriate large applicators such as swabs and rollers used for applying primer or solvent cement to larger pipe and fitting surfaces.
Always confirm the applicator dimensions and required neck fitment before ordering to make sure the selected Spears® accessory is appropriate for the MT-648 can.
Solvent Cement Accessory Use
