The Wavian 20L is a NATO-pattern jerry can made in Latvia. Its ribbed, 0.9 mm cold-rolled steel body has an internal Rezol lining designed for petroleum fuel.
The three-handle top allows one-person or two-person carry.
Sold in the United States by Swiss-Link. Safety spout included.
Fully welded, recessed seams.
The body joins are welded rather than crimped. Recessing the seams keeps them inside the body line instead of leaving an exposed lip along the side.
Spout rides with the can.
The spout clips into a bracket on top of the can for storage between uses.
Bayonet closure, tethered pin.
The bayonet lever secures the lid. A tether keeps the locking pin attached to the can when removed.
Internal breather.
A breather pipe inside the neck allows air to enter as fuel leaves, helping maintain a steady pour.
