Interlocked duo component tin can packaging
The interlocked 2-component tin can packaging are often used when the filling is done (semi)automatic. Both the A and the B-component can be filled separately and then connected. The smaller measures of capacity are connected by the Hildering Duo Ring. This plastic ring is effective, easy to assemble and connects up to a measure of capacity of 5 litres.
Terminology
Without exception the largest measure of capacity will be indicated as the A-component. This will be closed with a lid. The B-component can be closed with either a lid (latchring) or a plastic closure.
The emptying speed of a plastic closure is lower than that of a lid. Generally the mixing will be done in the A-component, this is why this is usually partially filled, thus enabling the end-user to mix and stir the A and B-component without spillage.

The larger capacity measures (> 5 litres) use the metal locking rings. These connect the A-component on the B-component or vice versa. When the B-component is closed with a lid the emptying time is extremely fast contrary to when using a plastic closure. From the perspective of transport the connected version takes up more space than the integrated one.
