Product Information
Full details
The Draper Flat Steel Fuel Can is a rugged, reliable storage solution for users who need a secure way to transport petrol or diesel for landscaping equipment, generators, or off-road vehicles. Its primary strength lies in its durable steel construction and UN-certified safety standards, which provide peace of mind during transit. However, users should note that at 2kg empty, it is heavier than plastic alternatives and requires careful handling to maintain the powder-coated finish and avoid denting during intensive field use.

FAQs
Is this can suitable for petrol and diesel?
Yes, it is designed for the safe storage and transport of both petrol and diesel.
Does it come with a warranty?
Yes, this product is covered by the Draper lifetime warranty.
What are the dimensions of the can?
The dimensions are 340 x 240 x 220mm.
Is the spout replaceable?
The spout is integrated into the design for convenience; ensure it is stored properly within the handle to prolong its life.
Can this can be used for long-term fuel storage?
While it is durable, fuel should always be stored in accordance with local regulations and in a ventilated, fire-safe environment.
Does the can include a breather valve?
The design relies on the main opening for air displacement during pouring; ensure the can is not tilted too steeply to maintain airflow.
Troubleshooting
Spout is difficult to attach to the nozzle
Ensure the threads on the can and the spout are clear of dried fuel residue or debris. Clean with a dry rag and try again.
Fuel is leaking from the cap area
Check the internal rubber seal for cracks or debris. Ensure the cap is screwed on perfectly straight and tightened securely.
Exterior finish starting to chip
Use a touch-up paint suitable for metal to prevent rust from forming on the exposed steel.
