WHEN PURCHASING A DIESEL GENERATOR OR A CHAINSAW, YOU NEED TO THINK ABOUT THE TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE OF FUEL THAT YOU WILL POUR INTO THE TOOL. DRIVING TO A PETROL STATION WITH A GENERATOR IS NOT THE BEST OPTION. THEREFORE, IT IS BEST TO STOCK UP ON A RELIABLE JERRYCAN. IN THE COURSE OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE POLYMER INDUSTRY, PLASTIC JERRYCANS HAVE REPLACED STEEL ONES. HIGH-DENSITY POLYETHYLENE (HDPE) PRODUCTS DO NOT LEAK FUEL VAPOR AND ARE ABSOLUTELY SAFE TO USE. CLEAN FUEL AND FUEL MIXTURES MUST BE STORED IN A STRONG SEALED JERRYCAN, WHICH CANNOT BE AFFECTED BY AGGRESSIVE EXTERNAL FACTORS – TEMPERATURE, PRESSURE, HUMIDITY, SUNLIGHT.

A thoughtful certified product does not accumulate static charge and is not subject to fire. The model line of Oktan jerrycans has a certificate in accordance with the law on fire safety and has the UN marking, which allows filling fuel at the petrol station. Jerrycans marked UN comply with the requirements of international and national regulations on the transport of dangerous goods.

The correct jerrycan has reinforced side walls and strong seams at the bottom. The products calmly withstand the load of large weights. While budget jerrycans of handicraft production begin to deform even from a small impact.

In order to show how durable Oktan Profi jerrycans are, the manufacturer used a pair of such jerrycans instead of a repair stand for the car. According to the representative of the brand, both jerrycans after such a test completely retained their shape and tightness. The experiment with jerrycans in the photo is shown in order to demonstrate the reliability of Oktan jerrycans — we do not recommend repeating it. Tightness is an important condition for any fuel storage tank. When buying, make sure that there are no cracks, chips, burrs and other casting defects on the jerrycan. Also be sure to check how tightly the lid fits when fully closed. To check the jerrycan for tightness, it is enough to close the lid tightly and place the product in a tank with water. If there are no air bubbles coming out of the jerrycan under water, you can trust it.

In addition to the high quality of production, resistance to large static loads, the manufacturer assures that all Oktan jerrycans have a margin of impact resistance. To sum up, a good jerrycan is also needed for drivers who are fond of long car rallies and off-road trips, lovers of tourism and outdoor recreation, owners of households who have diesel generators and gasoline garden equipment.
