2.5 Gallon, Type II DOT Steel Safety Can, w/5/8" Dia. Hose for Flammables, Red

37BL38 is a 2.5-gallon, red Type II, DOT-approved steel safety can that transports flammable liquids for onsite fuel dispensing applications. The 11.75" outer Dia. x 12.7" H (298mm x 305mm), DOT-approved safety can incorporates a hold-down bracket tethered to the spout that prevents vapor release and spills during transport. Container's easily engaged, built-in fusible link melts at 165° F (74° C), to prevent dangerous pressure buildup at higher temperatures. Includes maker's AccuFlow technology which features a Safe-Squeeze trigger mechanism that activates the piston-actuated spout and vacuum-release valve to allow accurate pouring from the 9" L x 5/8" outer Dia. metal hose (229mm x 16mm). Includes an internal flame arrester that dissipates heat to prevent flashback ignition. Self-closing lid automatically vents between 3 and 5 psig (0.2 and 0.35 bar). Heavy roll bars prevent damage to the spout.

Proper handling of flammable and combustible liquids is a critical step in preventing fires and explosions. Storing flammable and combustible liquids in safety cans minimizes the incidence of fires and explosions as these containers are designed to discharge flammable vapors and reduce spills. These cans are also crafted to safely relieve internal pressure when subjected to fire conditions. Safety cans are rigorously tested to determine strength, and are subjected to drop, leak and compatibility tests that determine the highest quality in safety standards. It is critical to select the proper safety can that is compatible with a specific combustible or flammable liquid.
