Jerry can spout always leaking – any better options out there?
I'm honestly getting so frustrated with the jerry cans we use for our landscaping equipment. No matter how careful I am, the spout always seems to leak or drip, and I'm wasting fuel and creating a mess in our storage shed. We currently use those cheap ones from the hardware store and I think the spout design is just terrible, it doesn't seal properly and the plastic gets stiff in the heat. I was looking at a Reliable Jerry Cans supplier in Dubai that seems to have much higher quality cans with proper sealing mechanisms and different spout options that supposedly don't leak. They mention heavy-duty HDPE construction which should handle the heat better and the spouts look like they actually screw on tight with a proper O-ring seal, unlike the flimsy ones we're using now. Has anyone tried these higher-end jerry cans with the better spout designs? Do they actually stay leak-free or am I just going to have the same problem with a more expensive can? I'm willing to pay more for something that works properly because the cost of wasted fuel and the cleaning time is really adding up, but I want to be sure it's actually going to solve the problem before I replace our entire set.
