GELG Jerrican Hydrocarbon 20 L, Khaki Green

These are perfectly sturdy jerry cans, at a price which is highly competitive. They come with a locking pin for the cap, which I didn't expect. That's good.The only thing that surprises me is the warning on the can saying that it's for fuel and shouldn't be used for water... but it doesn't explain why not? Is there a real problem with the materials of construction which make it unsuitable as a water carrier? Is it to guard against complaints should it rust through from the inside? Or is it just a legal necessity to avoid litigation in the event that someone does store drinking water in it and then falls ill?

I bought this to store lawnmower petrol in the shed, and its perfect. I can keep enough for a full summer and know its safe. The can id much more substantial than a plastic can and looks like it will take plenty of knocks and abuse. The closing mechanism is robust, and although a bit stiff at first has loosened up and seals really well. Only downside is I havent been able to find a spout that fits, but use a funnel instead, which works fine. Would reccomend.

Good product for what I use it for (only really needed for army training exercises while filled with water) very sturdy and rugged. Unfortunately the interior is coated with some sort of chemical, like a protective paint or something. It contaminates anything you put inside and gives off a very strong smell, so you may want to rinse it out a few times if you intend on putting drinkable water/petrol inside etc.

Sturdy jerry can, well constructed with a good finish. I have filled this up and had it rolling round the back of the pick up without a drop being leaked. Good kit

Terrible product DO NOT BUY!!!!!Avoid if you want to store fuel.Purchased 2 and both leak diesel or petrol (tried both).Rubber seal reacts with fuel and expands so no longer fits.20l completely brims it to the point of spillage.When filling from a petrol station the nozzle won’t fit in the can properly due to a stupidly placed breather pipe.Should get a 0 star rating but I had to pick 1 star to leave a review

Good quality army style petrol/diesel carrier. Not for water - it'll rust. Top seals for storage and takes a useful 20L. Ideal for garden machinery which you can't take to the filling station. Pretty keen price too - I was paying this 5 years ago. Heavy when full.

This Jerry can uses a thin seal (2.5mm) on the top which is not available the normal seal for Jerry cans is 4.5mm thick. Unless you want to mess about making you on seal, buy on that uses the normal seal which is widely available!

It’s a good can
