This Eagle Manufacturing Type I safety can holds 5 gallons of flammable liquids with a self-closing lid and built-in flame arrestor. Built from 24-gauge type 316 stainless steel, it handles corrosive environments where standard steel cans would fail. The electric seam weld construction joins the top and body for a leak-proof seal, while the stainless steel flame arrestor prevents flashback ignition.
The can features a 16-gauge shock rim on the bottom for structural support when moving or storing on rough surfaces. Rubber gaskets provide additional sealing protection. Type 316 stainless steel offers superior corrosion resistance compared to standard grades, making this can suitable for chemical storage areas and marine environments. The self-closing mechanism automatically seals the spout when not in use, meeting OSHA 1910.106 requirements for flammable liquid storage.
Use this can in laboratories, pharmaceutical facilities, food processing plants, and anywhere you need to store flammable solvents around acids or salt spray. The stainless construction won't rust or contaminate stored liquids. Manufactured in Wellsburg, West Virginia, it works well for temporary storage during maintenance or as permanent storage for specialty chemicals that would attack painted steel cans.
