Eagle Gasket and Packing U251SX5BLU Type Ii Safety Can 5 Gal

Product Description

The EAGLE GASKET AND PACKING U251SX5BLU is a Type II safety can constructed from galvanized steel and rated for a 5-gallon capacity. It ships with a 5.8-inch O.D. flexible spout designed for controlled dispensing of flammable liquids. Type II cans feature both a fill opening and a separate dispensing spout, which keeps the original fill cap sealed during pouring. This design reduces vapor release and limits splash exposure during transfer operations. The galvanized steel body provides corrosion resistance suited to workshop, fleet, and industrial service environments. The blue color designation is used to identify a specific fluid type per site safety protocols. Technicians in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general maintenance trades commonly keep safety cans on hand for solvent, fuel, and cleaning-fluid handling.

This can is appropriate for residential and commercial maintenance applications where flammable or combustible liquids must be stored and dispensed safely. The flexible spout allows the user to direct fluid into tight fill points without a separate funnel. Blue-coded cans are typically designated for a specific fluid category under a shop or facility color-coding system. This unit is sold individually and suits general shop use, service vehicles, and job-site storage wherever a portable, code-compliant dispensing container is required.

Installation Notes

Safety cans of this type are installed and serviced by maintenance technicians, facilities personnel, and trade professionals working with flammable liquids. Before filling, confirm the can is grounded or bonded according to NFPA 30 and applicable local fire codes to prevent static discharge. Inspect the spout, cap, and vent mechanism before each use and do not use the can if any component is damaged or missing. Keep the can away from ignition sources when filling or dispensing.
