About HEAVY 16

HEAVY 16 was formulated by Bryce Patterson, a Cal Poly-trained horticulturist based in Signal Hill, California, around three principles: high-grade raw ingredients, complex chemistry that simplifies application, and micro-batch blending for consistency. Alongside its base nutrients and additives, HEAVY 16 also sells the container hardware — spigots, caps, wrenches, and a transfer pump — that growers need to draw from and open its bulk container sizes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size drums does this wrench fit?

This wrench is designed for 6 gallon (23 liter) drums and fits standard bung fittings used across the industry. It is not sized for HEAVY 16's 15 or 55 gallon drums, which use the larger wrench.

Is this wrench non-sparking?

Yes, it's made of non-sparking aluminum, a common material choice for tools used around flammable or sensitive liquid concentrates. This makes it a safer everyday option than an improvised steel tool.

How do I use this wrench to open a drum?

Fit the wrench onto the drum's bung fitting and turn to break the seal loose, then continue by hand once it's loosened. Use the same wrench to reseal the bung after drawing liquid.

Is this wrench heavy to handle?

No, it has a lightweight aluminum design for easy handling compared to a heavier steel bung wrench. That makes it easy to keep on hand for regular use with a 6 gallon drum.
