Eagle 5 Gallon Type I Safety Gas Can, Red — Galvanized Steel, UL/OSHA Compliant

The Eagle 5 Gallon Type I red safety gas can is a US-made, 24‑gauge galvanized steel fuel can engineered for safe storage, transport, and controlled dispensing of gasoline and other flammable liquids.

Designed and manufactured in Wellsburg, West Virginia, this Eagle UI50FS model combines durable hot-dipped galvanized steel construction with safety features required by OSHA and NFPA Code 30. It carries UL, ULC and FM approvals, incorporates lead-free materials, and includes a spring-closing lid, non-sparking pour spout and flame arrestor to reduce ignition risk while resisting rust and wear with a baked-on red powder coat finish.

How does this can reduce fire and vapor risks?

The Eagle Type I can integrates multiple passive safety elements that limit ignition sources and control internal pressure. While no container eliminates all hazards, this can meets recognized industrial standards to lower risks during storage and handling.

• Built-in flame arrestor prevents flame propagation into the liquid chamber.
• Self-closing, gasketed lid vents at about 3–5 psi to relieve internal pressure safely.
• Non‑sparking brass pour spout and a fixed handle reduce accidental sparks during use.
• Constructed and tested to UL, ULC, FM, OSHA and NFPA code 30 specifications.

What makes the construction durable and corrosion‑resistant?

The can uses hot-dipped, 24‑gauge galvanized steel and a seamless deep‑drawn body to resist dents and corrosion better than thin stamped steel. The exterior is finished with a baked-on powder coat that helps protect against chipping and fading in normal use.

• One-piece seamless body reduces leak points compared with multi-piece designs.
• Galvanized steel resists rust from moisture and many chemicals.
• Powder-coat finish provides added abrasion and UV protection.
• Double interlock no-weld bottom seam increases structural integrity.

How does dispensing and filling work with this Type I can?

Type I cans use a single opening for both filling and pouring. Eagle’s model includes a user-friendly comfort-grip trigger release and an F-15 funnel to simplify transfer, while the spring-closing lid helps prevent spills and vapor escape when set down.

• Patented comfort-grip trigger for controlled pouring and reduced hand fatigue.
• Includes F-15 funnel for cleaner filling into small openings or equipment tanks.
• Self-closing spout cap prevents accidental leaks when released.
• 100% leak tested at the factory to ensure tight seals out of the box.

Is this can compliant with workplace and storage rules?

Yes — the Eagle 5 Gallon Type I meets the major regulatory and testing standards commonly required for flammable liquid containers. It is intended to align with workplace safety codes and insurance requirements that reference recognized approvals.

• Meets OSHA Standard 1910.106 and NFPA Code 30 guidance for flammable liquid containers.
• UL, ULC, and FM listed/approved for use with gasoline and similar fuels.
• Manufactured with lead‑free materials to satisfy environmental considerations.
• Produced and quality-controlled in the USA to traceable standards.

Who is this for? The Eagle 5 Gallon Type I red safety gas can is suitable for professional tradespeople, maintenance crews, landscapers, fleet operators and homeowners who need a sturdy, code-compliant container for storing and transporting gasoline or similar flammable liquids. It is a good option when regulatory approval, corrosion resistance, and a reliable self‑closing pour system are priorities.
