Fuel & Water Cans – Product list

Steel jerry cans by fuel type

Faithfull's steel jerry can range follows standard colour coding: the Red Steel Jerry Can (20 litre) is designated for petrol, while the Black Steel Jerry Can (20 litre) and Green Jerry Can (20 litre) are used for diesel, with the Green range also available in a 5 litre size for smaller top-ups. The Silverhook Diesel Fuel Can & Spout (5 litre) gives a further black diesel option, complete with its own pouring spout.

Replacement spout

The Faithfull Jerry Can Spout Rubber Nozzle replaces a worn or damaged spout, letting you keep an existing steel jerry can in use rather than replacing the whole container once the pouring spout fails.

Why colour coding matters

Following standard fuel can colours, red for petrol and black or green for diesel, reduces the risk of misfuelling, particularly important on sites or in vehicle fleets running a mix of petrol and diesel equipment where a mistaken fuel fill can cause serious engine damage.

Choosing the right size

5 litre cans suit smaller top-ups or infrequent use where a full 20 litre can would be excessive to carry. 20 litre cans suit regular refuelling of larger equipment or vehicles, or situations where trips back to a fuel source are impractical.

Frequently Asked Questions

Steel jerry cans are generally more durable and resistant to punctures and UV degradation over time compared to plastic, making them a common choice for regular trade or site use.
Yes, a replacement rubber nozzle spout, like the Faithfull Jerry Can Spout, lets you keep using an otherwise sound can once the original spout wears out or splits.
5 litre cans suit occasional top-ups or lighter equipment, while 20 litre cans suit regular refuelling of larger machinery or vehicles where frequent trips back to a fuel source aren't practical.
Match the can to its intended fuel type based on colour coding rather than using one can interchangeably, since residue from one fuel type can contaminate the other if the same can is used for both.
