FAQs

What type of fuels can be stored in this jerry can?

This can is designed for storing various fuels such as petrol and diesel. Always ensure the fuel is compatible with the fuel-resistant lining.

Is this jerry can safe for transporting water?

While it can hold water, the internal lining is specifically designed for fuels. Storing water may lead to internal rust if not dried completely, and it is not recommended if you need to maintain fuel purity in other cans.

What does UN3A1 approval mean?

UN3A1 approval signifies that the can has met stringent international standards for the safe packaging, marking, and transportation of dangerous goods, including flammable liquids.

How should I clean the jerry can?

After emptying, rinse with a small amount of the same fuel. For a more thorough clean, use a dedicated fuel can cleaner and ensure the can is completely dry before refilling or storing.

What are the dimensions of the jerry can?

The dimensions of the can are approximately 16cm (width) x 36cm (length) x 46cm (height).

What is the steel thickness?

The steel used for this jerry can is 0.8mm thick, providing a balance of strength and manageable weight.

Troubleshooting

Bayonet closure is difficult to open or close

Ensure the area around the closure is clean and free from debris. Check if the pin mechanism is obstructed. A small amount of appropriate lubricant might help if it's stiff, but ensure it doesn't contaminate stored fuel.

Can appears to be leaking

Inspect the bayonet closure seal for damage or wear. Ensure the closure is fully tightened. Check the body of the can for any dents or punctures. If damage is found, the can should be taken out of service.

Internal corrosion noticed

This can indicate that the fuel-resistant lining has been compromised or that the can has been stored with moisture. Discontinue use if significant corrosion is present.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Robust and durable steel construction for longevity.
  • Fuel-resistant lining prevents corrosion and contamination.
  • Leak-proof closure ensures safe transportation.
  • UN3A1 approval for compliant storage and transport.
  • Integral handle for ease of use.

Cons

  • Can be heavy when full due to steel construction.
  • Not suitable for storing water or other non-fuel liquids if dedicated fuel storage is required.
  • Requires careful handling due to potential for damage to surroundings if dropped.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jerry can requires no assembly. Ensure the bayonet closure is securely fastened before transporting.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for the safe storage and transportation of fuels. Always check the compatibility of the liquid you intend to store with the fuel-resistant lining. It is UN3A1 approved, meaning it's suitable for transporting dangerous goods according to international regulations.

Care:

  • Cleaning: After emptying, rinse the can with a small amount of the appropriate fuel before final cleaning with a suitable cleaner. Avoid using water unless thoroughly dried afterwards, as moisture can lead to internal rust.
  • Storage: Store the can upright in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from heat sources and direct sunlight.
  • Inspection: Regularly inspect the can for any signs of damage, corrosion, or leaks. Check the integrity of the bayonet closure and its seal.
