Product Information

Full details

This AB Tools 5 Ltr Metal Fuel Jerry Can is designed for commercial or occasional users needing a robust solution for carrying or storing liquids, particularly fuel. Its key benefit is the durable steel construction with a fuel-resistant lining, ensuring safety and longevity. A potential caveat is its capacity, which is fixed at 5 liters, making it unsuitable for large-volume storage needs. The jerry can features a leak-proof bayonet closure, an integral handle for easy transport, and a powder-coated finish for added protection.

FAQs

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

This jerry can is specifically designed for petrol, diesel, and oil. Always ensure compatibility with the specific liquid you intend to store.

Is this jerry can safe for transporting fuel in a vehicle?

Yes, it is fully UN3A1 approved, meaning it meets international safety standards for the transport of dangerous goods, including fuels. Ensure it is properly sealed and secured.

How do I clean the inside of the jerry can?

Empty the can completely. If necessary, use a fuel-safe cleaning agent and rinse thoroughly. Ensure the can is completely dry before refilling to prevent contaminants.

What is the wall thickness of the steel?

The steel thickness is 0.6mm, providing a balance of strength and manageable weight.

Does the can come with a spout?

This model does not include a separate spout. The integral handle is designed for controlled pouring directly from the can.

What are the dimensions of the jerry can?

The dimensions are approximately 10cm (width) x 24cm (depth) x 32cm (height).

How is the closure sealed to prevent leaks?

It features a leak-proof bayonet closure with a pin mechanism that ensures a tight seal when properly fastened.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty opening or closing the bayonet cap

Ensure there is no debris around the seal. Press down slightly on the cap before turning to release pressure. If the pin is stiff, a small application of lubricant might help, but ensure it is not fuel-contact safe.

Slight fuel smell around the cap

Check that the bayonet closure is fully engaged and the seal is seated correctly. Ensure the pin mechanism is not damaged. The smell might also be residual fuel on the exterior, wipe clean.

Interior lining appears to be flaking

This is rare and could indicate damage or incompatibility with stored fuel. Discontinue use immediately and consider replacing the can. Inspect for chemical reactions.

Can is dented or damaged

Minor dents may not affect functionality, but significant damage or punctures compromise safety and integrity. Do not use a severely damaged can for fuel storage or transport.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jerry can requires no assembly. Ensure the bayonet closure is fully sealed before transportation. It is UN3A1 approved for carrying hazardous materials, so always store and transport it in accordance with local regulations.

Compatibility: Primarily designed for petrol, diesel, and oil. Always confirm compatibility with the specific liquid you intend to store. It is not recommended for water or other non-fuel liquids unless specifically confirmed by the manufacturer.
