Defective and Potentially Dangerous airflow Cap.

2 months ago
The tiny cap that allows hair flow wouldn’t seal tight. Therefore, if the gas can tipped over, gasoline would leak through the small cap because there’s no seal and it wouldn’t tighten. The screw cap just kept turning. I don’t know if this is by design to allow pressure buildup to be released, but it’s a terrible design if that’s the case because of the fact that gasoline will leak out if it falls over. Very dangerous in my opinion if it is by design.

Hello Thistle -The Scepter vent caps now have a child resistant feature which requires the operator to push and turn clockwise to close and push and turn counterclockwise to open, this will require several turns in both cases. There is a nipple on the underside of the vent cap that will engage with the vent hole on the fuel can. Like a pharmaceutical bottle it may not tighten but as long as the nipple is engaged, you push down and turn several times it should be sealed. Please note fuel cans must always be stored and transported upright and NEVER be laid on their side. Scepter

Q: Tip over Does it tip over easily when driving? Around turns etc?

12 years ago
4 Answers
  • A: By law, in Canada, all hazardous materials MUST be strapped down no matter where they are placed in a moving vehicle. So NO, it will not tip if your are transporting safely and legally

Q: What does the Spout look like? Is it a CARB type spout or an old style colapsable spout?

13 years ago
3 Answers
  • A: The old style I think, as I change all of my cans to the push and release like the race car type for refueling as soon as I buy a can. It's makes refueling easier with this spout.

Q: What does 'self-ventilating' mean exactly? Does gas need to be oxygenated of sorts to stay effective? I'm guessing there's a hole in the top for it to allow gas to escape to prevent the gas from going bad, for a lack of a better word.

6 years ago
1 Answer
  • A: Hi Curtis - When we say "self-venting" we are referring to the fact that the spout has a channel for venting when pouring allowing for a faster pour. The self-venting spout has nothing to do with the longevity of the gasoline, we cannot comment on that. For further information about gas we recommend you contact the manufacturers of the fuel. If you have any further questions regarding the fuel can please contact our Customer Care Team toll free at 1-800-387-6018. Have a great day

Q: Can these containers be used to transport drinking water

6 years ago
1 Answer
  • A: The red fuel cans are designed for gasoline and therefore the materials used would not be suitable for water. Scepter does manufacture a water can of this style which is designed for water transport. If you require further information please contact any of our customer service representatives toll free at 1-800-387-6018 (M-F) from 8 - 5 EST.

Q: Is it normal that the vent cap does not screw tight? The vent cap cannot be screwed tight. It is too loose for the male threads on the can. It seems done by design. Anyone experienced some problems (leak, smell, etc …) with that vent cap? I tested all cans on the shelf and they are the same!

  • A: This is normal, the vent cap works like a pill bottle.

Q: Can these be transported with gas on their sides? I am looking to transport this on a carrier rack on top of a FJ Cruiser and would prefer to have a low-profile. So, if I strapped this to the top rack on it's side, would it present any issues?
