FAQs
What type of fuel can be stored in this Jerry Can?
This Jerry Can is UN tested and certified for flammable liquids such as petrol and other fuels. Always ensure the fuel type is compatible with steel containers.
Is the internal coating safe for long-term fuel storage?
Yes, the internal coating is a flame-retardant powder coat specifically designed to be resistant to fuels, ensuring it is safe for long-term storage without degrading.
How does the locking pin on the cap work?
The locking pin is a safety feature designed to prevent the Bayonet cap from being accidentally opened. You must fully disengage the pin before you can twist and open the cap.
What does UN Tested and Certified to Group Level 2 mean?
This certification indicates that the Jerry Can has met rigorous international safety standards for the packaging and transport of dangerous goods, specifically flammable liquids like petrol, under specific conditions.
Can I store water or other liquids in this Jerry Can?
While the can is robust, it is specifically designed and certified for flammable liquids. Storing other liquids may not be recommended due to potential material interactions or contamination concerns for future fuel use.
How often should I inspect the Jerry Can?
It is recommended to inspect the Jerry Can regularly, especially before and after each use, and at least annually, for any signs of damage, corrosion, or leaks. Pay close attention to the cap seal and locking pin.
Does it come with a pouring spout?
Pouring spouts are often sold separately. Check the product listing or packaging for details. The design of the breather channel facilitates pouring, but a spout can offer more control.
Troubleshooting
Cap is difficult to open or close.
Ensure there is no debris around the cap threads. Check the locking pin is fully disengaged before attempting to open. If the issue persists, the seal may require slight lubrication with a fuel-compatible lubricant.
Pouring is slow or glugging occurs.
Ensure the wide channel breather is clear and not obstructed. Verify the pouring spout (if used) is correctly inserted and does not block the breather.
Slight fuel odor detected even when capped.
Confirm the Bayonet cap is fully sealed and the locking pin is engaged. Check the cap seal for any damage or wear. Ensure the can is not stored in an enclosed, unventilated space.
External paint is scratched.
Minor scratches can be touched up with compatible paint. For significant damage, assess for any compromise to the steel integrity. Minor cosmetic damage does not typically affect functionality.
