Also known as Type II safety cans, these have two openings—one for filling, one for pouring. Safety cans are a safer choice than fuel cans for storing flammable liquids. They have a spring-loaded, self-closing lid; pressure-relief cap; flame arrester; and a vacuum-release valve for controlled pouring.

Color-coding typically indicates usage: red for gasoline, yellow for diesel, blue for kerosene, and green for other liquids.

Style B have a steel roll bar that protects the spout, handle, and trigger during transport.

Style C have a rotating spout that flips down for pouring and up for storage.

A self-closing faucet provides controlled, one-handed dispensing of flammable liquids. These safety cans also have a flame arrester and a self-closing pressure-relief cap.

Powder-coated steel cans are for petroleum-based liquids.

Polyethylene plastic cans are for chemicals and corrosives.

Stainless steel cans are corrosion resistant and often used with liquids such as acetone, ether, toluene, and xylene.

Tip cans down for controlled dispensing, then swing them back to their upright position. These cans have a pressure-relief cap with built-in vacuum-release valve for controlled pouring.

Powder-coated steel can is for petroleum-based liquids.

Polyethylene plastic can is for chemicals and corrosives.

For temporary storage of oil- and solvent-soaked towels and brushes, these containers protect flammable contents from potential fire sources and spontaneous combustion.

Styles C and D have a raised ventilated bottom to promote air circulation and heat dispersion.

Store leftover hazardous liquids until they can be properly discarded. The spring-loaded, self-closing cap on these cans automatically vents to relieve excess vapor pressure, and a flame arrester protects against outside ignition.

Plastic cans are for aggressive chemicals and corrosives.

316 stainless steel cans are for liquids such as acetone, alcohol, ether, toluene, and xylene.

Galvanized steel cans are for petroleum-based liquids.

Easily fill these cans through the detachable wide-mouth funnel, then remove the threaded plug to empty. A flame arrester protects against outside ignition.

Store leftover hazardous liquids until they can be properly discarded. Made of plastic to resist harsh acids and corrosives, this safety disposal can has a self-closing cap to prevent spills and a trigger handle to empty contents with one hand.

Dispose of razor blades and other sharp objects with these single-use, sealable containers. They are also known as sharps containers and are puncture resistant. Not for landfill disposal.

Biohazard containers can also be used for needles.

Style A has two ties for attaching to posts, forklift cages, and more.

Styles D-F are leak resistant. The exterior can be sterilized with steam.

Open these plastic waste containers with your foot to discard trash without touching the lid. They help you comply with OSHA sanitation standards, which require storing waste that does not leak and keeps out rodents.

FM-approved waste containers prevent internal fires by restricting oxygen flow.

Style D waste containers are designed to temporarily store potential biohazards. They’re red in color, have a biohazard label, and won’t leak, so they’re consistent with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1030 requirements for exposure to blood-borne pathogens.

Mix and store noncorrosive flammable liquids, such as paints and lacquers. This pail has a flame arrester to protect against outside ignition and a grounding tab to reduce static electricity buildup.

Easily insert and remove parts from these cans. Good for small cleaning jobs, they save space and solution. A fusible link closes the cover in the event of a fire.

Push down on the spring-loaded drain plate to submerge and agitate to clean parts. The drain plate acts as a flame arrester in the event of a fire.
