High-density polyethylene jerricans have a unique 20 cm (8”) long spout with a built-in air vent for smooth pouring.

The spout retracts into the threaded collar to conserve space, and the collar is sealed by a leakproof screw cap. An extra hand grip on the bottom gives positive control when pouring. The 5gal. jerrican has a 2.5 cm (1”) I.D. pouring spout; other sizes have 1.9 cm (³/₄”) I.D. spouts. Graduated in U.S. gallons and liters, they feature extra headspace for expansion of contents.
