Frequently Asked Questions

Will this jerry can holder fit my 20L fuel tank?

Yes, this Alpen jerry can holder is specifically designed for standard 20L diesel tanks. The dimensions are L38 x D52 x W21.5cm, which provides a snug fit that prevents rattling or movement during transportation. The holder will securely accommodate your fuel tank without any wobbling, making it ideal for long trips across Australia.

What's the difference between this and a basic jerry can rack?

This isn't just a basic rack?€?it's a complete protective system. The 3mm thickness aluminium construction makes it significantly more durable than standard holders, with built-in security features including a locking latch that keeps your jerry can secured in place. The top lid protects your fuel from sun exposure and theft, while ventilation cutouts prevent heat buildup. You're getting corrosion-resistant protection designed specifically for Australian outdoor conditions, whether you're camping, caravanning, or doing remote 4WD trips.

Can I fit this on my caravan, camper, or 4WD vehicle?

Absolutely. This holder is designed for easy mounting to the rear of caravans, campers, 4WD vehicles, trailers, and canopies. It weighs 5.9kg and is made from lightweight yet sturdy aluminium alloy, so it won't create excessive load on your vehicle. The secure latch system ensures your fuel stays in place even on rough outback roads or during bumpy journeys.

Will this rust or corrode in Australian weather?

No, this holder is built to withstand Australian conditions. The 3mm thickness aluminium plate is naturally corrosion-resistant and won't rust like steel alternatives. The material is specifically chosen for durability in harsh outdoor environments, making it ideal for coastal areas, desert conditions, and wet climates. The black finish also helps hide minor marks from dust and dirt during your adventures.

What's included in the package, and how heavy is it?

You receive 1x Black Jerry Can Holder with Lid. The total weight is 5.9kg, making it manageable for installation on most vehicles without requiring heavy-duty reinforcement. All the necessary components are included?€?you just need to mount it securely to your vehicle's rear structure using appropriate fasteners (bolts or welding, depending on your setup).

Is this worth the $218 investment for occasional camping trips?

If you regularly carry spare fuel for camping, caravanning, or remote 4WD travel in Australia, this is excellent value. The security features (locking latch), protective top lid, and durable 3mm aluminium construction mean you're investing in fuel security and longevity. Fuel theft and damage from weather are real concerns on Australian roads. This holder protects both your fuel investment and your vehicle's load stability?€?making it worthwhile even for occasional adventures, and essential for serious outback enthusiasts.
