Premium F-style Metal Cans for Advanced Industrial Chemical Packaging
When it comes to transporting, storing, and dispensing low-viscosity industrial fluids—such as solvents, chemical thinners, adhesives, and automotive fluids—packaging integrity is non-negotiable. SeFluid designs and manufactures high-performance F-style metal cans engineered specifically to withstand rigorous industrial supply chains while preventing chemical permeation and degradation.

Engineering Architecture of SeFluid F-style Metal Cans
Unlike standard round containers, the rectangular configuration of F-style metal cans maximizes palletization efficiency and reduces shipping footprints. SeFluid utilizes high-grade, cold-rolled electrolytic tinplate (ETP) compliant with international packaging standards, ensuring superior structural rigidity and puncture resistance.
Technical Specifications & Material Compliance
To assist procurement managers and packaging engineers, our standard F-style container lineup is manufactured according to strict dimensional and chemical compatibility tolerances:
Advanced Corrosion Resistance and Lining Technologies
A critical factor in chemical packaging longevity is internal lining compatibility. SeFluid offers two distinct internal surface finishes tailored to your chemical matrix:
Unlined (Plain) Tinplate Containers
Ideal for 100% hydrocarbon-based chemicals, industrial solvents, paint thinners, lubricants, and oil-based fluids. The pure tin layer provides excellent sacrificial protection against rust without contaminating the pure chemical formulation inside.
Epoxy-Phenolic Lined Containers
or water-based formulations, mild acids, or sensitive chemical compounds, SeFluid applies a high-bake epoxy-phenolic interior lining. This cross-linked polymer barrier prevents chemical interaction between the fluid and the iron matrix of the steel base, completely eliminating the risk of internal oxidation.
Leak-Proof Mechanical Seaming and Closure Engineering
Fluid migration during high-vibration logistics is a leading cause of product loss. SeFluid F-style metal cans feature a precision-engineered double-seamed bottom and top plate. This mechanical interlocking system utilizes a specialized fluid-resistant sealing compound cured within the seam, creating a hermetic seal capable of passing stringent pressure-drop testing.
Furthermore, our top plates are compatible with multiple closure architectures:
- Standard Alpha Screw Tops: Designed for smooth pouring and re-sealability in laboratory and industrial workshops.
- Child-Resistant Closures (CRC): Compliant with retail safety regulations for consumer-facing chemical products.
- Integral Plastic Pour Spouts: Extendable spouts that reduce glugging and eliminate hazardous fluid splashing during decanting operations.
Maximizing Logistical Efficiency and Space Utilization
In modern global logistics, space equals profitability. The rectangular geometry of SeFluid F-style metal cans offers a 30% higher space utilization rate on standard shipping pallets compared to conventional cylindrical cans.
- Pallet Efficiency: Flat sides allow tight, interlocked stacking, distributing top-load pressure evenly down the metal walls.
- Top-Load Capacity: With nominal wall thicknesses up to 0.28 mm, these cans support heavy vertical loads, allowing multi-tier warehouse stacking without the need for expensive secondary structural racking.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What types of caps are compatible with SeFluid cone top tin cans?
Our cans are designed with standard 38mm or 50mm DIN thread finishes, making them compatible with a wide variety of screw caps, including plastic pour spouts, metal plugs, and child-resistant closures.
Can I order cone top tin cans with a custom interior lining?
Absolutely. SeFluid offers various interior coatings, such as epoxy phenolic and gold linings, to protect the tinplate from reactive chemical contents. We can recommend the best lining based on your specific product formula.
What is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ)?
As a direct manufacturer, SeFluid is flexible with order quantities. Standard sizes have a lower MOQ, while custom-printed or highly specialized cans may require a larger MOQ. Contact our sales team for a detailed quote.
What closure options are available for cone top tin cans?
SeFluid offers a variety of caps, including standard metal screw caps, child-resistant (CRC) caps for hazardous chemicals, and brush-in-cap designs for adhesives.
