Overview
The Wavian JC0020YVS is a 5.28 gallon yellow steel gas can with an attached safety spout. It is a portable fuel container for gasoline, built as a jerry can with a painted exterior, a leakproof bayonet closure and a locking pin in the cap. It comes from a factory that supplies several NATO militaries, and it is a universal fit, so it is not sized for one vehicle.
The can suits owners who want a sealed, sturdy fuel carrier for trail trips, camp use or equipment that runs on gasoline. Wavian presents it as a high-quality jerry can, and it is tested to several standards listed below. No separate part number is given, so the model code JC0020YVS and the UPC 856460005129 identify the can.
Key features
- Yellow painted exterior in epoxy polyester powder coat, with the inside lined in Rezol fuel resistant enamel
- Leakproof bayonet closure with a locking pin in the cap
- Full internal breather pipe and a wide channel breather for smoother, splash-proof pouring
- Safety spout attached, plus an adapter for vehicles with smaller filler receivers
- Dual pan construction, three handles and seam welded for extra strength
- Cap hinge strengthened to resist bending, and the cap holds open while discharging
Storing and handling a steel can
A steel gas can is a sealed container, but it still needs care. Keep it upright, closed and out of direct sun when storing gasoline, and avoid leaving it in an enclosed space near heat sources. Painted steel holds up well to normal use, though nicks can expose metal to moisture over time. Fuel containers age, so periodic checks matter.
Before each trip, check the cap seal, the bayonet closure and the handles for play or cracking. Fill the can away from open flame and let it rest on the ground while pouring. Clean the spout after use so residue does not build up in the opening.
- Inspect handles and seams for cracks
- Store the can upright in a ventilated spot
- Touch up paint scratches to slow rust
