Frequently Asked Questions
Essential technical and commercial insights for beverage can ends procurement.
What is the difference between B64 and CDL can ends? ↓
The primary difference lies in the counter-sink profile geometry. CDL can ends feature a redesigned profile that allows for metal gauge reduction (thinner aluminum) while maintaining the same double-seam performance and pressure resistance as traditional B64 can ends. CDL profiles help breweries reduce overall packaging weight and material costs.
Are your aluminum easy open ends compatible with standard seamer machines? ↓
Yes, our 202 beverage can lids (both B64 and CDL specifications) are manufactured strictly according to international industry standards. They offer seamless compatibility with high-speed seaming equipment from major brands like Ferrum, Angelus, and Pneumatic Scale without requiring major chuck modifications.
Do you provide BPA-NI (BPA Non-Intent) internal coatings for beer can lids? ↓
Absolutely. To comply with strict food safety regulations in North America and the European Union, we supply aluminum beverage ends with advanced BPA-NI (BPA Non-Intent) internal lacquers, alongside traditional Epoxy-Phenolic and Organosol coatings, ensuring optimal corrosion resistance for highly acidic beverages and craft beer.
What sizes of can ends do you manufacture? ↓
We manufacture standard 202-diameter (52.5mm) and 200-diameter (50.0mm) easy open ends compatible with 330ml, 355ml, 473ml, and 500ml standard cans, as well as 250ml, 310ml, 330ml, and 355ml sleek/slim cans. Custom diameters are available for large-volume contracts. All ends can be paired with our aluminum can bodies for full-package sourcing.
