Safety Can and Combustion Safety

Safety Cans Serve Several Critical Functions:
• Safely contain hazardous liquids and control vapors to reduce the risk of fire, protecting both personnel and facilities
• Offer compliance with federal OSHA regulations and state and local fire codes
• Improve efficiency with ease-of-use features to enhance pouring and filling operations
A safety can is designed to specifically eliminate one or more of the elements needed for a fire to start: heat, oxygen and/or fuel. These elements are the "legs" of a fire triangle. The fire triangle demonstrates the three basic elements that must be present simultaneously ­to support a fire.
Heat may be any ignition source which generates heat, such as mechanical sparks, static electricity, frayed wiring, a lit match or cigarette or a portable heater. Heat is effectively controlled with a dual-density flame arrester and self-close, leaktight lid.
Internal dual-density flame arrester within the fill/pour spout dissipates heat to prevent flashback ignition and guards against the potential for fire and bomb-like explosion. Double mesh construction (a fine mesh screen joined with a coarse mesh screen) protects against fire yet keeps liquids flowing freely for convenient filling and pouring.

Unique Counterbalance Design – Unlike trigger mechanisms which use finger muscles, Justrite's ergonomic design leverages the weight of liquid against opening mechanism for effortless pouring.

Half-inch raised bottom resists accidental punctures when placed on uneven surfaces and doubles as an easy hand-holding support when pouring. Unique echo patterned rib design offers additional strength and rigidity.

Leaktight, airtight cap closure is fitted with a long life gasket that resists flammable, corrosive, volatile and viscous liquids.
