One opening is equipped with flexible metal hose for smooth, accurate pouring into small apertures. The hose also provides a bonding path to a receiving vessels. A second opening, positioned behind the handle, is used for filling. All Type II cans have a swinging handle to ease carrying a full, heavy can. During pouring, the unique design uses the weight of the liquid to counterbalance the pressure required to open the spout. Both openings are equipped with full length, dual density flame arresters which reliably dissipate heat to prevent flashback ignition. Both openings self-close to prevent spillage and the rear opening automatically vents between 3 and 5 psig (0.2 and 0.35 bar) to guard against pressure buildup at elevated temperatures and potential explosion. Heavy duty, lead free coated steel with reinforcing ribs and tough powder paint finish offers on the job durability.
