Justrite 5 Gallon Red AccuFlow Galvanized Steel Type II Vented Safety Can With Stainless Steel Flame Arrester And 1 Metal Hose (For Flammable Liquids)

Tractor fuel, doesn’t turn over when hauling fuel like plastic containers

Leak proof

Doesn’t leak or vent gas smell in SUV cabin. You can leave in hot car all day and not have car smell of gas. Get gas while on way to work or other errands, and not worry about having your car smell of gas. Saves me dedicated trips to only the gas station. Bought 10 cans for me and 2 Sons. Mistakenly ordered wrong size, and reordered wanted size and stuck with 3 extra cans as can’t return gas cans.

The plastic ones used to be ok, but once they added all of the “safety” features, the containers were almost impossible to dispense fuel from. They’d always break, and pieces would end up in my gas tank, or I’d spill it all over, because the spout wouldn’t seat right. These work as good as the old school metal gas cans! They still have some safety features, but they don’t interfere with the dispensing of fuel! These are well made, and will definitely outlast the new plastic ones!

I hate those plastic gas cans. The twist-valves break easily, caps pop off when they swell due to temperature changes, tabs crack off, etc. I had one of those tip over in my attached garage and fill my house with gasoline fumes and decided enough was enough. I went from one local store to another to find an alternative. They had different brands, but all the same lousy construction or just variations on the same lousy construction. Then I saw the larger version of this can on Amazon and figured Id give it a try. Its great. No leaks, no fuss trying to screw on a plastic cap or closing a valve, its all automatic. Its hard to do it justice in an online description, but everyone who has put their hands on my gas can has gone out and ordered one. Its that good. The larger one, with its 1 nozzle, fills my 2.5-gallon lawn tractor in short order. I use this one for my 2-cycle blower and weed-whacker. These are expensive, thats true, but totally worth it.

The primary advantage of this gas can is that it is a sealed container and does not require the attachment of a seperate spout or parts. This gas can is IDEAL for refueling chainsaws, trimmers, blowers, etc. The fact that it is sealed provides two advantages. One, it keeps the gas good for longer. It prevents the gas from bleeding off the good fumes that make it burn. This is especially important if these are stored outside where there is a constant temperature swing and humidity. Two, you can throw it in the back of a truck and it can get bounced and sloshed around and it wont leak. The attached spout with the built in handle to open the valve to pour means you dont have to bring a seperate spout which can get lost and takes time to attach and remove every time you pour. I still prefer the 5 gallon Jerry can MFCs for my truck, but the Justrite Safety cans are the only way to go for around the house, yard, farm, trail, generators, camping, etc. Buy the correct size for the job at hand. Note - make sure and get the smaller size spout for small power equipment. Only one warning - it will continue to pour for a second or two after you release the handle because there is still gas in the spout. You will need to release the handle slightly before the tank is completely full or you can overfill.

Stop screwing around with plastic cans, get this can, easy to lift, move around and pour, once you see the level of gas coming near the top of tank, take your thumb off of the bail while your still holding the can with the red handle and remainder of gas will dribble out of spout into the tank. After spending as much or more on plastic Krap over the past few years I finally purchased this and I am much happier, I use plenty of fuel in the tractors and dirt bikes that this is now a no brainer, ordered another for pre-mix, you can lay it on its side and it doesnt leak. Like any other mettalic object you can make a doghouse with a crude dooe and a vent to keep this out of the weather and it will not rust or spout will not get crusted up etc.

I really like this metal gas can. It is a bit pricy, but much easier to use than the plastic versions. I got the 5/8th spot so that I could use it to fuel my car in a pinch. Only thing to know is with this smaller spot, the flow is somewhat slow. In order to empty the can you will be holding it up for some time.

Didnt leak when knocked over. Strong spring handle. Heavy. Less strong people might want to get 2 two gallon containers instead.

No leaking and fits in the Diesel tank of a truck. Non of that turn this way and use this angle. Just insert and open value. Note: make sure you know how to open the vent otherwise you wonder why it does not work. Once I figured it out, filled up without issue or leakage. Im going to order a second to get 10 gallons reserve.
