Gorilla Tub Yellow 15L

Red Gorilla Gorilla Tub Extra Large 75L – Yellow

This is Red Gorilla's Extra Large Gorilla Tub, their biggest at 75 litres: 37cm deep, 57.5cm across the top and 43.5cm across the base. Yellow is the easiest colour to pick out on a working site or a dark yard, which is why it tends to be the one that gets bought for shared use.

The tub is listed here under the title Gorilla Tub Yellow 15L. Red Gorilla make no 15-litre Gorilla Tub; barcode 729848000125 is their Extra Large 75L in yellow, and every figure on this page is taken from Red Gorilla's own listing for that tub.

Performance & Benefits

• 75 litres — twice the Large 38L — in a tub 37cm deep and 57.5cm across the top.
• Wide enough at 57.5cm to take a shovel, a stable fork or a full leaf rake head without catching the rim.
• The flexible LDPE body absorbs a dropped load and springs back rather than cracking along a mould line.
• Ribbed walls stop a tub this wide from folding in on itself when it is part loaded.
• Chamfered rim lets you sweep straight in off a concrete floor and pour cleanly.
• Two reinforced golf-ball handles set wide for a two-person lift.

Suitable For

• Mixing, shovelling and gathering in quantity around a yard or site.
• Soaking hay, beet or a large batch of feed.
• Site waste, rubble and prunings.
• Shared use where a tub needs to be visible and easy to find.
• Not BPA free — yellow is one of the three colours Red Gorilla exclude — so for a dedicated feed or water tub the Extra Large 75L in red is the better choice.

How to Use

• Fill to a weight you can move, not to the rim — 75 litres of water weighs about 75kg.
• Use both handles, and a second pair of hands for anything heavy.
• For ice, tip the tub over and flex the walls until the block releases.
• Rinse out with warm water and a mild detergent; stand it upside down to drain.
• Nest it over a smaller Gorilla Tub for storage rather than leaving it open to the rain.

Specification

• Capacity 75 litres. Height 37cm, 57.5cm across the top, 43.5cm across the base.
• Food-grade LDPE (low-density polyethylene). Red Gorilla describe it as horse and pet friendly and suitable for storing and preparing food.
• Not BPA free. Red Gorilla state that every Gorilla Tub is BPA free except black, green and yellow, and this is one of the three.
• Red Gorilla product codes SP75 series; the yellow Extra Large is listed by Red Gorilla as TC75Y, barcode 729848000125.
• Ribbed sides, chamfered rim and two reinforced golf-ball handles.
• Red Gorilla describe the tub as flexible and weather resistant. They publish no tub weight, no tested load and no frost or UV rating. Figures such as 2.1kg and a 100kg EU-tested handle rating appear on some retail listings, including our own earlier copy; they are not Red Gorilla's and are not repeated here.

Care & Caution

• Filled with water this tub holds about 75kg. Do not try to lift a full one — bail it down or tip it before moving it.
• Red Gorilla publish no tested load or working weight for the handles, so treat the 100kg figure that circulates on retail listings as unverified.
• In hard frost the LDPE stiffens. Flex a frozen tub gently to release the ice rather than striking it while it is cold.
