✅Key Features
-
Designed specifically for diesel fuel storage, capacity ~10 L.
-
Certified to Australian Standard: AS 2906:2001 (fuel containers) – giving assurance of regulatory compliance.
-
Marked with UN approval: “3H1/Y1.2/180/YY/AUS/PQI31635” (or similar, depending batch) for safe fuel transport.
-
Constructed of UV‑treated high‑density polyethylene (HDPE), making it rust‑proof (since plastic), durable and suitable for outdoor use.
-
“Fast‑Pour” design: The manufacturer claims that a full 10 L can be poured out in approx 30 seconds* when using the supplied pourer and with breather cap open.
-
Internally stored flexible pourer: Keeps the pour‑spout stored inside the can (so it stays clean) and ready for use.
-
Separate breather outlet + cap: Helps provide a smooth pour with “zero glug” effect (i.e., avoids spitting or slow flow).
-
Upright “military design” style can (i.e., tall rather than wide and flat) intended to fit standard jerry‑can holders / racks.
-
Distinctive yellow colour for “diesel” fuel – reduces risk of mixing up fuel types.

🔍 Use‑Case & Advantages
-
Ideal for storing and transporting diesel fuel safely — especially for vehicles, equipment, generators, off‑grid setups, marine use, etc.
-
The upright design and standard jerry‑can size mean it fits commonly used holders or racks, which is helpful for vehicles (4×4, RV) or storage.
-
The built‑in pourer and breather make it easier and safer to use than generic containers (reducing splashes, “glugging”, spillage).
-
Colour‑coding (yellow) helps compliance and safety (ensures diesel can be easily identified vs say petrol/unleaded which may be red) — good for risk management.
-
Being Australian made and certified gives confidence in quality, durability, and regulatory compliance for fuel storage/transport.
⚠️ Considerations / Things to Check
-
Ensure it’s used for diesel (it is labelled for diesel). Using with other fuels may compromise safety or compliance.
-
Check local laws/regulations in Malaysia (or the region in which you’ll use it) for fuel storage/transport — certification may differ region to region.
-
When transporting, the container should be secured upright (manufacturer’s recommendation).
-
When refuelling, ensure safe environment: equipment off, cool parts, good ventilation, no ignition sources. Manufacturer outlines “safe refuelling tips”.
-
Accessory availability: ensure you can get replacement pourers, caps, seals locally or via the supplier if needed.
-
Check shipping/import cost to Malaysia (if purchasing from an Australian supplier), as fuel storage containers may have special shipping requirements.
-
Ensure you have proper storage setup if leaving fuel for extended time (deterioration, contamination, etc).
