These metal fuel cans are valued for practical storage and generator use, with a spout that fits into the can and an opening that works with a cheap transfer pump. The cans are also described as easier to store and transport than short plastic cans, and the metal build is preferred over plastic safety valves. The main concerns are thin steel, outside welds, and seams that may wobble or leak over time, especially when heat causes expansion. A few reports also mention fading or ballooning in sun, though some cans have stayed leak free for months or even years.
Common Questions (5)
Some units reportedly leak at the top seam or from a pinhole, and the pour spout can leak at the gasket if it does not mate flat. Others have been filled and used without leaking, especially after modifying the spring-loaded spout.
The can may expand and contract in hot sun if left closed, which can leave visible creases over time. The center weld seam is also not recessed, so it may not sit flush and can wobble side-to-side while putting weight on the seam.
It can serve as a secure generator fuel source for years, but the build is thin and some cans have failing handle welds, seam leaks, or other quality issues. It is still preferred over plastic cans with safety valves for storage and transport.
Some cans have not faded after months outside in strong heat, including black units, while others were said to fade quickly. Corrosion resistance was also questioned because the steel appears thinner than higher-quality military-style cans.
Yes. The opening can work with a cheap GF transfer pump, and the rear of the spring-loaded safety spout can be drilled out so you do not have to depress the spring when pouring.

i'll send pics tomorrow of the ones at work ... maybe the southern texas sun is different ..lol ... when you put the hose on it does yours leak when pouring fuel?? all of ours leaks like a sieve...
Surprisingly neither has leaked on me with all of the flexing but wondering if this have the same issue. Can't find any evidence if those complaints in the reviews though.
Also I like the concept of these cans having the pour spout fit into the can vs the Sportmans cans which it is an independent piece that must be attached. Those always leak when pouring (at the gasket...which I've tried replacing but the connection doesn't mate flat...the gasket would need to be tapered to work).
*Props to the Sportmans cans, they did come with some robust mounts though. I had them mounted in the back of a pickup truck for extended travel trailer trips. Their green cans were really strangely painted though. Camo green but the highest gloss imaginable. You could blind the ISS with the glare

Let's pretend fuel doesn't expand.....I still have the issue even with a small amount of air in the top. I could vastly overfill (to the brim) the can but that isn't a good idea either since it could lead to leaking if the seal wasn't perfect and also would almost guarantee spilled / wasted fuel when attempting my first pour. (actually leaving MORE air, since fuel isn't compressible would be the solution to this interpretation). MORE air would allow for greater expansion / contraction headroom vs a incompressible liquid which is going to require the container to accommodate the volume changes).
Not to mention, fuel cans are meant to be used. Your solution only works (again, pretending fuel does not expand) if the can is 100% full. What if I need to dispense some of the can then store the other half for later? For example for generator or tool use which likely would not require the entire 5.3 gallons at one time?
P.S. Concerning downvotes, I don't worry about them too much. Especially here...some of these people act like I am making up that matter expands and contracts with heat. Not exactly rocket science. And the entire concept of "just keep your cans full," even if that worked, what are you supposed to do if you actually need to use some (but not all) of your fuel? Just pour out the rest? Plus, like you alluded to, leaking due to pressure. I tried that on a long RV trip and I ended up with gas all over the bed of my truck. Not exactly optimal. At this point I just use the Sportsman Guide cans when I storm prep before a ice storm or hurricane so I have fuel for my generator. If I don't need it, it goes straight into a car as soon as I have room in the tank. Cans look like crap because they have ballooned so many times, but they still hold gas so they serve some purpose.
