- Stream/squirt liquids or lotions
- Repackage larger containers
- Take only what you need
- Four different cap styles
- Ideal for sunscreen, insect repellent, and stove alcohol
Cylinder Bottles are for storing and dispensing liquids and lotions. Use them to repackage larger containers so you take only what you need on your trip. No sense taking a large bottle of something and only using a little bit.
The smallest 0.25 or 0.5 oz (7.5 or 15 ml) bottles are great for small amounts of olive oil or soap. The 0.25 oz (7.5 ml) is a little stiffer than the rest. The mid size 1 or 2 oz (30 or 60 ml) bottles are perfect for sunscreen, insect repellent, soap, or hand sanitizer. The larger 4 or 8 oz (120 or 240 ml) bottles work well for stove alcohol. The bottles are translucent so you can see there’s something in it and how much is left. Be sure to mark the bottle with what’s inside using a permanent marker, tape, or label. Graduation marks could also be useful to mark on alcohol bottles.
Four different cap styles are available. Choose the style that works best for your application. Learn more about plastic container materials, neck size, and cap seals.

Just what I was looking for!
Whatever you're going to put in these, they're the bottle you're after. Sunscreen, sriracha, olive oil, etc. I bought an assortment of oval and cylinder, and regular screw on tops for all. No leaks, no damage, they're light and durable and exactly what I wanted. Sending people I hike with here when they inevitably ask where I get my swanky assorted bottles.

LOVE the different sizes/caps.....so convenient
I mostly use these for backpacking and travel (I travel for my job) and the plethora of sizes and different caps are so amazing. I have lots of items that I need to bring, but in small quantities, and these are so convenient.

Just what I needed
Got one of these for sunscreen on the trail. Doesn't leak, holds just enough to be useful. Glad I got it as it saved me a lot of space and weight.

Conforme à la présentation du produit.

Handy
These are great--super lightweight but sturdy. These do not seem like they would leak. The caps fit well and work well.
-
High Quality and Lightweight
Purchased several variations of bottles from the website and the cylinder LDPE were my favorite. Durable, squeezable, and the snap top closes with a secure click. It provides a great solution to bringing hand sanitizer, lotion, and sunscreen.
-
works well with sanitizer
I had to get a bunch of these in a hurry to provide to my employees that deliver food to supermarkets during the Pandemic. We needed to share the bulk sanitizer we had and to make it more portable for them. Litesmith got these shipped out fast and they work great with the snap caps. No leaks so far and we can open them with one hand.

Great for Sunscreen
Purchased two bottles for my face and body sunscreen. The snap-tops work well and don't leak. Light and compact.
-
Light and liquidproof
I found the bottle to be light and liquidproof. I choose the serew on top.
-
Perfect alcohol bottle
Exactly what I needed for my alcohol fuel bottle at a very reasonable price.
