Full details
This pack of four 20-liter white jerry cans from ITP Packaging is designed for safe and easy storage and dispensing of liquids. Ideal for workshops, garages, or outdoor activities, its key benefit is the Ecovent system which prevents glugging and splashing. A potential caveat is the standard 70mm cap size, which might require specific adaptors for some dispensing equipment. Features include High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) construction, a 70mm T/E cap, UN approval, and food-grade certification.

FAQs
Are these cans stackable?
While designed for efficient storage, stacking stability depends on the contents and the surface. It's recommended to stack only when full and stable, and not to exceed safe weight limits.
Can I use these for gasoline or diesel?
Yes, the HDPE material is suitable for fuels, and the UN approval indicates they meet safety standards for transporting such hazardous goods. Always follow local regulations for fuel storage and transport.
What is the significance of being UN Approved?
UN approval means the container has passed rigorous testing and meets international standards for the safe transport of dangerous goods by road, rail, sea, and air.
How do I ensure the food-grade integrity?
Ensure the can is thoroughly cleaned before first use with any food-grade liquid. Avoid storing non-food items in cans designated for food or water. Always use the designated cap.
Can I use a siphon pump with this can?
Standard siphon pumps can be used. If using an electric or manual pump that requires a specific fitting, ensure it is compatible with the 70mm opening or use an appropriate adapter.
What is the lifespan of these jerry cans?
With proper care and use, HDPE jerry cans can last for many years. However, they should be regularly inspected for signs of wear, UV damage, or chemical degradation.
Troubleshooting
Cap is difficult to open or close.
Ensure the threads are clean and free of debris. If new, the tamper-evident band might be stiff. Try applying gentle, even pressure.
Liquid still glugs despite the vent.
Ensure the vent hole is not obstructed by dirt or residue. Check that the cap is properly seated, as a loose cap can affect airflow.
Container has an odor after storing a specific liquid.
Rinse thoroughly with a mild soap and water solution. For stubborn odors, try filling with a baking soda and water mixture, letting it sit for 24 hours, then rinsing completely.
Minor leaks from the cap seal.
Inspect the cap and the container's neck for any damage. Clean the sealing surfaces. If the cap seal is damaged, consider replacing the cap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These jerry cans require no assembly. Ensure the 70mm T/E cap is securely fastened before transport to prevent leaks. For dispensing, simply unscrew the cap. If using a pump, ensure it is compatible with a 70mm opening or use an appropriate adapter.
Compatibility: The 70mm DIN71 cap is a standard size, but always verify compatibility with any specialized dispensing equipment or pumps you intend to use.
Care: To maintain the integrity and cleanliness of the jerry cans, rinse thoroughly with water after each use. For tougher residues, use a mild detergent and a soft brush. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the HDPE material. Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme heat. Ensure the cans are completely dry before storing to prevent mold or odor buildup. Periodically check the cap seal for wear and tear.
