The Eagle S-65 screen serves as a replacement flame arrestor screen for the Eagle 1301 stainless steel laboratory safety can (sold separately) to prevent igniting liquids inside the can and keep flames from spreading.
Made of stainless steel, it resists rust and corrosion.
Hazardous storage cans are utilized to safely store, transport, and dispense flammable or hazardous liquids.
Typically, they are constructed from polyethylene, 24-gauge galvanized steel, or 24-gauge stainless steel.
(Gauge measures thickness; the lower the gauge, the thicker the material.) Various styles of hazardous storage cans exist, such as Type I cans with a single spout for filling and pouring, and Type II cans featuring a flexible metal hose for pouring and a second opening for filling.
Often, they are color-coded for different liquids (for example, red cans for gasoline, blue cans for kerosene, yellow cans for diesel fuel, or green cans for oil).
Common features include flame arrestors that help prevent igniting liquids inside the can and seam welds that help prevent leaks.
Certain hazardous storage cans are FM Approved, and many comply with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards for flammable liquids storage and handling.
Hazardous storage cans find use in various commercial and industrial settings and can also be suitable for home use.
Eagle Manufacturing Company produces industrial safety, haz-mat, and storage products that meet International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards for quality assurance.
