(3 for 2) Gorilla Tub® Large 38L – Durable Multi-Purpose Plastic Tub Pink

Red Gorilla Gorilla Tub Large 38L – Pink

The 38 litre Gorilla Tub in pink is the one that stays yours. On a shared yard where six people own the same tub, colour is the only reliable label, and pink is rarely contested. Capacity is 38 litres in a tub 33cm deep and 44.5cm across the top.

Beyond the colour it is the standard Large tub: food-grade LDPE, ribbed walls, chamfered rim and two reinforced handles, and one of the shades Red Gorilla list as BPA free.

Performance & Benefits

• 38 litres in a tub 33cm deep and 44.5cm across the top — a full haynet soak, a day's water or a barrow-load of feed in one lift.
• The LDPE body flexes. Stand on the rim or drop it off a tailgate and it deforms and springs back where a rigid bucket would split at the seam.
• Because the walls flex, frozen water can be squeezed out in one lump rather than chipped at with a hoof pick.
• Ribbed sides stiffen the walls when it is full, so it carries without folding in the middle.
• Chamfered rim pours cleanly and lets a shovel or a dustpan sweep straight in.
• A colour nobody else on the yard has claimed, which cuts down on borrowed tubs.

Suitable For

• Shared and livery yards where tubs need to be told apart at a glance.
• Soaking hay or beet, mixing feed, and carrying water round a yard.
• Garden, allotment and building work — leaves, prunings, rubble and mixing.
• Anyone who keeps splitting rigid plastic buckets in cold weather.
• Too deep for measuring out a single supplement scoop — the Gorilla Tub Mini Shallow 5L is the right shape for that.

How to Use

• Lift a full tub with both handles. One-handed carrying pulls the flexible wall out of shape and slops the contents.
• To clear ice, turn the tub over and flex the sides until the block drops out whole.
• Rinse with warm water and a mild detergent; the smooth interior has no seam for feed to lodge in.
• Store upside down or nested inside another tub so rain and leaves do not collect.
• Slide rather than drag a loaded tub across concrete — the base scuffs before the walls do.

Specification

• Capacity 38 litres. Height 33cm, 44.5cm across the top, 35cm across the base.
• Food-grade LDPE (low-density polyethylene). Red Gorilla describe the material as horse and pet friendly and suitable for storing and preparing food.
• BPA free. Red Gorilla state that every Gorilla Tub is BPA free except the black, green and yellow ones.
• Red Gorilla product code SP42PK.
• Ribbed sides, a chamfered rim for scooping and pouring, and two reinforced golf-ball handles.
• This is the deep Large tub. Red Gorilla also make a Large Shallow at 35 litres, an Extra Large at 75 litres and a Mini Shallow at 5 litres.
• Red Gorilla describe the tub as flexible and weather resistant. Frost- and UV-resistance claims appear on some retail listings, including our own earlier copy; Red Gorilla publish neither, and publish no tub weight or load rating, so none is stated here.
