Two plastic tubs side-by-side in a wooden support rim, sized for 8-frame Langstroth hives — 1.98 gallons of syrup total, with Ceracell's patented corner access design and a single center chimney between the tubs.
Features
- 1.98 US gallon (7.5 L) total capacity across two tubs
- 5 access points: 4 corners + 1 center chimney
- Heavy-duty food-grade plastic with reinforced underside ribs
- Wooden support rim holds both tubs and creates the gap above your hive box
- Includes wooden rim (unassembled), 4 corner caps, 1 center chimney cap
- Fits standard 8-frame Langstroth hives
- Works for liquid syrup or dry sugar
How it works
Assemble the wooden rim, set it on top of your 8-frame Langstroth box, and drop the two plastic tubs into it side by side. The rim holds both tubs and lifts them above the hive box so bees can enter the center chimney area (gap between tubs) as well as the four corners. Pour up to 1.98 gallons of 1:1 syrup. Bees climb up, drink, and return safely. For dry feeding, pull the center chimney cap.

FAQ
Why two tubs instead of one? The gap between the side-by-side tubs becomes the center feeding chimney.
Will this fit a 10-frame hive? No — see the 10-frame version.
Does the rim ship assembled? No — ships flat, quick to assemble.
What's the difference vs No Wooden Rim? Just the wooden rim. Same tubs and caps.
