Storage bottles

Hey, I'm in need for a 1L glass storage bottle to store concentrated sulfuric acid, does anybody have an ebay listing available? My local stores have the ones with the cheap caps. Thanks.

Talk to Dr. Bob.

Do you know what kind of cap is suitable for 98% H2SO4? Most reagent bottles have a PP cap which is attacked by the acid.

If you find some G35 lids (the kind that go on the glass media bottles) in your search please let me know. I could probably use 12 or 24 if they come in larger amounts..

Sure, I also have 30% H2O2 that's been sitting in the stock HDPE plastic bottle for several years I might transfer that as well.

Who would use 6400 caps? :D
My uni lab has 1L sigma aldrich conc. h2so4, it has a black cap which I think is phenolic with PTFE lining, it was a small diameter cap though.
I wouldn't want to pour this acid with a wide cap bottle it would spill all over.
