Welcome to our curated selection of Justrite flame arresters, expertly integrated into safety cans, gas cans, and drum funnels. These essential tools are designed for the safe storage and dispensing of flammable liquids like gasoline and oil, preventing dangerous flashbacks by quenching flames before they reach the container. In high-risk environments such as workshops, laboratories, and industrial facilities, Justrite products deliver unmatched reliability, helping you meet OSHA and NFPA standards while protecting lives and property.
Why Justrite Stands Out in Flame Protection
Justrite has built a stellar reputation over decades as a leader in safety equipment, particularly for their flame arrestors that feature a bonded flame quenching screen assembly. Made from rugged 24-gauge galvanized steel with powder-coat finishes, these products resist corrosion and dents, ensuring long-term performance. What sets Justrite apart is their commitment to innovation—like self-closing lids that reduce vapor emissions and trigger-controlled spouts for precise pouring—combined with U.S. manufacturing for consistent quality control.
As part of broader Hazardous Storage Equipment, these flame arresters fit seamlessly into compliance-focused workflows. Whether you're upgrading from basic containers or outfitting a new operation, Justrite's designs prioritize user safety without sacrificing convenience.
Key Features to Look for in Justrite Flame Arresters
When shopping, focus on these critical attributes:
- Flame Arrester Design: Multi-perforated screens trap and dissipate heat from ignition sources.
- Type I vs. Type II Cans: Type I offers a single opening for filling and pouring; Type II provides separate fill and pour spouts for versatility.
- Self-Closing Mechanisms: Lids and covers snap shut automatically to minimize spills and vapors.
- Capacity and Spouts: From 1-pint mini cans to 5-gallon models with flexible metal spouts (5/8-inch or 1-inch) or integrated funnels.
- Material Durability: Galvanized steel construction for chemical resistance and longevity.
Common use cases include automotive repair shops for gasoline storage, chemical plants for solvent handling, and construction sites for oil transport. For those in Occupational Health & Safety Products, integrating these ensures regulatory adherence and risk reduction.
Comparing Top Justrite Models
Our category features six standout models tailored to different needs. Here's how they stack up:
- The 5 Gallon Type I Green Safety Can for Oil (7150410) includes a funnel and flame arrester, ideal for workshops needing dedicated oil storage with easy filling.
- For gasoline, the 5 Gallon Type II Red Safety Gas Can with 1" Flexible Metal Spout (7250130) excels in high-volume dispensing, while the similar 5 Gallon Type II with 5/8" Spout (7250120) suits narrower applications like small engines.
- The 5 Gallon Type I Red Safety Gas Can (7150100) offers straightforward pouring for general fuel needs.
- Compact options like the 1 Pint Type I Red Safety Gas Can (10001) with trigger handle are perfect for portable, precise gasoline handling in labs or field work.
- The 2.6 Gallon Drum Funnel (08207) with emergency-fusing cover and 2" bung adapter shines for topping off drums safely, featuring a self-closing lid that fuses shut in fire scenarios.
Choose Type I for simplicity or Type II for dual-functionality. Larger 5-gallon cans suit bulk storage, while the pint-size and funnel target spot-specific tasks. All integrate seamlessly with Hazardous Material Handling protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Justrite flame arresters superior to competitors?
Justrite's arresters use advanced, FM-approved screen designs that outperform generic models in quenching efficiency and durability. Their U.S.-made construction ensures better corrosion resistance compared to imported alternatives.
Which Justrite model should I choose for gasoline storage?
For everyday use, opt for 5-gallon Type II cans like the 7250130 (1" spout) for flexibility or 7250120 (5/8" spout) for precision. Smaller needs suit the 1-pint 10001 with trigger control.
What is the warranty on Justrite products?
Justrite offers a limited lifetime warranty on most safety cans against manufacturing defects, underscoring their confidence in quality. Check product specs for details.
How do I maintain a Justrite safety can with flame arrester?
Regularly inspect the flame screen for damage, clean with non-corrosive solutions, and ensure self-closing lids operate smoothly. Store in cool, dry areas away from ignition sources.
Are these suitable for oil versus gasoline?
Yes—green Type I cans like 7150410 are optimized for oil, while red models handle gasoline. Always match container color-coding to contents per safety standards.
