Gorilla Premium Bucket (Pistachio)

Red Gorilla Premium Bucket 15L – Pistachio

The Premium Bucket is Red Gorilla's rigid trade bucket rather than one of their flexible tubs, and in pistachio it is the softest colour they offer it in — a pale green that suits a garden or a smart yard where a red or yellow builder's bucket would look out of place.

It holds 15 litres in a body 27cm tall and 36cm across, with a heavily ribbed wall for stiffness and a reinforced metal handle set into moulded lugs. That handle is the reason to buy it: it is the part that pulls out of a thin bucket the first time you carry it full.

Performance & Benefits

• 15 litre capacity in a bucket 27cm tall and 36cm across, to Red Gorilla's own published figures.
• Extra-strong ribbed wall section — this one is built rigid for load, not flexible like the Gorilla Tub range.
• Reinforced metal handle with a moulded grip, which is the part that usually fails first on a cheap bucket.
• Weather resistant, so it can be left outside between jobs without going chalky.
• Recyclable plastic throughout, and Red Gorilla quality and stress test the moulding.
• Wide 36cm mouth takes a full-size trowel, sponge or hand without catching your knuckles.

Suitable For

• Mixing plaster, mortar and grout, and general building and plumbing work.
• Carrying water, tools and fixings around a site, garden or yard.
• Gardening, potting up and household jobs that need a rigid bucket rather than a floppy tub.
• Anyone who has broken the handle off a supermarket bucket and wants a reinforced metal one.
• Red Gorilla publish no food-grade or BPA status for the Premium Bucket, so it is not the one to use for feed or drinking water — the Gorilla Tub Small 14L and the Gorilla Plas S1 Small Feed Skip 11L are the food-grade choices we stock.

How to Use

• Fill to the ribbed line rather than the rim if you are carrying it any distance — 15 litres of water is close to 15kg.
• Lift by the metal handle with the grip centred; support the base with your other hand for a full load.
• Rinse out mortar, plaster or grout before it goes off — cured mixes are much harder to release from the ribbing than from a smooth wall.
• Store upside down so it drains and does not collect rainwater.
