Eagle 18.9 L Type I Red Safety Gas Can — Galvanized Steel, UL/OSHA Compliant, Leak-Tested

Eagle's 5-gallon Type I red safety gas can is a heavy-duty, lead-free galvanized steel container designed to store, transport, and dispense gasoline and other flammable liquids safely.

This USDA-made safety can combines proven fire-prevention features with user-friendly controls to meet workplace and consumer storage needs. Built from 24-gauge hot-dipped galvanized steel with a baked-on red powder coat, the can resists rust and wear while complying with OSHA 1910.106 and NFPA 30 codes. It is UL, ULC and FM approved and uses lead-free technology in a seamless, deep-drawn body to reduce leak risk and improve durability.

How does the Eagle safety can prevent accidental ignition?

The can includes a non-sparking brass pour spout and an internal flame arrester to block flames from entering the liquid chamber. Its self-closing lid with a neoprene gasket vents at a controlled 3–5 psi to avoid pressure build-up while minimizing vapor release.

• Integral non-sparking brass pour spout reduces ignition sources
• Built-in flame arrester prevents external flames from igniting contents
• Self-closing, spring-loaded lid vents at 3–5 psi for controlled pressure relief
• Leak-tested construction ensures a secure seal during transport
