Eagle Gasket and Packing U251SX5RED Type Ii Safety Can 5 Gal

Product Description

The EAGLE GASKET AND PACKING U251SX5RED is a Type II safety can constructed from galvanized steel and finished in red. It carries a 5-gallon capacity and includes a 5/8-inch O.D. flexible spout for controlled pouring. Type II safety cans feature both a fill opening and a separate dispensing spout, making them the standard choice for flammable and combustible liquid storage and transfer in shop, industrial, and field service environments. At 10 pounds, the empty can is manageable for a single technician. This unit is sold individually and is appropriate for HVAC shops, plumbing contractors, and general trade use where OSHA-compliant flammable liquid storage is required.

The U251SX5RED is designed for facilities and field service operations that store or dispense gasoline, solvents, or other flammable liquids. The Type II configuration is commonly specified where separate fill and pour openings are required by safety protocol or site regulation. The red color follows the industry convention for gasoline and flammable liquid identification. The same can design is also available in blue and yellow finishes for facilities that use color coding to differentiate stored liquids.
