steel nato gas can spouts

[KansasTwister]

does anyone make them? any good? i use the 1.5,2.5 and 5 gallon gates cans now (wide base skinny top keeps them from tipping over) but they stopped making the replacement plastic flex nozzles, and i kinda wanna upgrade to something more durable, so im wondering if the steel nozzles are the best flex spout, or are there better ones on the market?

The "NATO" cans are great. Stay away from the CARB ones.
Whom ever come up with that design should be shot by Nato.
I've run the NATO ones for years and have had no problem.

From the British Pacific website.....
Effective 12/30 we have halted sales of all NATO fuel cans
due to new federal regulations


What is the reasoning for that, anyone?

same reason why they dont make gas nozzles for my cans, some idiot thought up making restrictions on the possible emissions of portable gas cans, They work like sheet and takes forever to pour out a gallon of gas.

I think people spill more gas with the CARB "spill proof" nozzles trying to get them to work than a regular old fashion nozzle.
This has to be the biggest f@wk up CARB have man dated upon the people.

your not kidding there. Dont forget obsoleting everything older so that you have to buy new.

Emissions? Like the gas fumes? I know they have made the gas station pumps here dispense slower to 'lessen' fumes from when people fill up.

If you have an Army Surplus store anywhere near, you can probably find a "donkey dong" or two there. Actually, you can probably find all kinds of Jerry cans there, too.
