Excellent oil can for car and garden equipment

Used this can for about 2.5 years, great people say it leaks but I wrapped the threads in teflon tape now it doesn't leak. I like the long spout for those hard to reach places or when I can't use a spray can because I don't want oil on the parts, this little spray comes in handy, it suits my needs for working on cars and lawn mowers as well as sewing machines , in this jar you can use a thick lube or very thin, just watch as you tilt the jar and it's all nice to buy American made goods that…

Pros
  • Fuel transfer and lubrication
Cons
  • Some bugs

More than I expected but the main problem is oil dripping from the spout.

This thing is HUGE! I was expecting a tiny one that fits between my middle and index finger like I had growing up to oil my bike. I can't blame the product or the seller for this error, but I think I should have looked at the details. It easily holds a cup of oil, so it's suitable for large projects. But I'm not sure if anyone mentioned that, but the oil drips when held upside down. So for smaller projects I would look elsewhere. Even though it was large, it would still help lubricate firearms…

Pros
  • Oil Systems

  • Reliability

Worth the price of tools and equipment

We use this product at work to put a few drops of oil directly on our machine's chain drives and some track/bearing contact points. This works very well in hard-to-reach places and especially where a real oil is needed instead of an aerosol product. Or where aerosols themselves are not recommended due to overspray and product contamination. This small canister is not designed for very thin aqueous liquids. I know it needs viscosity to work properly but I would only guess. Our motor oil at work…

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Commercial Availability
