Steel Aerosol Can Products and Industries

Steel aerosol cans offer unmatched strength, durability, and high-pressure tolerance. Their dent- and impact-resistant construction makes them ideal for demanding environments, such as industrial, automotive, and workshop settings. Perfect for flammable or corrosive formulations requiring robust containment, they are well-suited for larger volumes and products demanding maximum internal pressure or ruggedness.

Home Care

Steel aerosol cans excel in housing aggressive home care formulations, such as solvent-based products or high-pressure propellants (e.g., insecticides). Their robust construction withstands garage storage conditions and accidental drops. The material’s resilience prevents corrosion from chlorine-based disinfectants or alcohol concentrates, while valve systems ensure effective delivery of viscous solutions. The can body provides reliable containment for volatile compounds requiring hazard warnings.

Auto Care

Steel aerosol cans are ideal for automotive applications, offering pressure resilience for flammable paints and solvents. They prevent leaks during high-temperature storage in workshops and provide structural strength to withstand impacts during transport of heavy products like bedliners. Specialized internal lacquers resist corrosion from brake cleaners or acidic wheel treatments, while nozzles ensure consistent delivery of high-viscosity materials like undercoatings under extreme conditions.

Industrial Chemicals

Steel aerosol cans are industrial workhorses, safely containing pressurized adhesives, expanding foams, and corrosive chemicals. Their dimensional stability ensures consistent valve alignment under high pressure for reliable spray patterns. Impact resistance prevents rupture on construction sites, and compatibility with aggressive solvents like acetone or methylene chloride makes them indispensable for specialty coatings and maintenance products. Larger sizes (400 ml+) offer material cost efficiency.

Technology and Professional

Steel aerosol cans are critical for technical applications requiring extreme pressure tolerance (e.g., refrigerant chargers) and cryogenic compatibility. Their secure containment prevents leakage of tracer gases or flammable propellants in sensitive environments. Rugged construction endures field use for smoke detector testing sprays, and material conductivity safely dissipates static in ESD-sensitive applications like circuit board cleaners.

A tinplate aerosol can is a single-use metal container made from tin-coated steel, designed to hold aerosol products like sprays or foams. These cans dispense contents under pressure via a valve system, making them ideal for industries such as cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and household goods. With a maximum volume of 1000 ml and a standard 25.4 mm mouth diameter, they ensure compatibility with standard aerosol valves.

Tinplate aerosol cans are classified into two shapes:

  • Straight-Body Cans: Uniformly cylindrical with consistent diameter, offering a classic design.
  • Necked-In Cans: Tapered at the top or bottom for ergonomic handling or aesthetic appeal, often used with specific valve systems or for branding purposes.

Tinplate aerosol cans are engineered for varying pressure levels:

  • Standard Pressure Cans: Suitable for products with moderate internal pressure, such as personal care aerosols.
  • High-Pressure Cans: Designed for industrial or specialized products requiring higher internal pressure. All cans undergo rigorous testing to ensure safety and reliability against deformation and bursting.

Tinplate aerosol cans are crafted from tinplate, a thin steel sheet coated with a layer of tin to prevent corrosion. The steel provides structural strength, while internal and external coatings protect the can from the product inside and environmental factors. These coatings ensure the can remains durable, safe for the contents, and maintains a long shelf life.

  • Appearance Inspection: Conducted under natural or 40W lighting at a distance of 0.6 meters to check for surface defects.
  • Contact Height Measurement: Measured using a contact height gauge to ensure dimensional accuracy.
  • Coating Adhesion Test: Evaluates the durability of internal and external coatings to prevent corrosion.
  • Hardness Test: Assesses the external coating’s resistance to wear.
  • Air Tightness Test: Uses a water bath to detect leaks under pressure.
  • Pressure Testing: Verifies the can’s ability to withstand deformation and bursting pressures. These tests collectively ensure the cans meet high standards for safety and performance.
Air tightness is tested using a water bath method, where the can is pressurized and submerged in water. Any bubbles indicate a leak, ensuring the can maintains its seal under the internal pressure of the aerosol product. This test is essential to prevent product loss or safety issues during storage, transportation, or use, and is conducted under controlled conditions for accuracy.

The numbers 112, 202, 205, and 211 are industry-standard series numbers for steel aerosol can diameters, based on inches (whole inches + sixteenths). They are converted to millimeters using 1 inch = 25.4 mm.

  • 112: 1 + 12/16 = 1.75 inches ≈ 44.45 mm (often 45 mm).
  • 202: 2 + 2/16 = 2.125 inches ≈ 53.98 mm (often 52–54 mm).
  • 205: 2 + 5/16 = 2.3125 inches ≈ 58.74 mm (often 57–58 mm).
  • 211: 2 + 11/16 = 2.6875 inches ≈ 68.26 mm (often 65–68 mm).

Calculation: Diameter (inches) = X + Y/16, where X is whole inches and Y is sixteenths. Then, millimeters = inches × 25.4. Exact values may vary slightly per standards (e.g., FEA or DOT).
