🙋 4. FAQ

Q1: What are the specific dimensions and capacity of a #10 food can?

A: The industry-standard #10 metal can follows the 603 x 700 specification—meaning a diameter of 6-3/16 inches and a height of 7 inches. With a capacity of approximately 100 fluid ounces, it is an ideal choice for commercial, industrial, and emergency food storage.

Q2: Are Gradetincan #10 cans suitable for acidic or wet-packed foods?

A: Yes, absolutely. In addition to uncoated tinplate cans for dry goods, we offer specialised internal epoxy coatings and BPA-NI (BPA-Non-Intent) protective liners. These advanced, chemical-resistant layers effectively prevent corrosion caused by acidity or moisture, making them highly recommended for wet-packed vegetables, sauces, and edible oils.

A: Yes. Our #10 cans and matching standard lids are engineered to meet the rigorous demands of industrial food processing. They are fully compatible with retort sterilisation, hot-filling, vacuum sealing, and aseptic filling equipment.

Q4: Can I customise the can body design and steel thickness?

A: Yes, we specialise in providing custom manufacturing solutions tailored to your specific needs. We offer options such as ribbed (corrugated) bodies for enhanced stacking strength or smooth bodies for easier labelling. Steel thickness, exterior coatings, and custom graphic printing can all be customised to your specifications.

Q5: What colour combinations are available for the can body and lid?

A: We offer a wide range of aesthetic options to align with your brand style. The can bodies are available in gold, silver, and grey, with matching lids offered in gold, silver, and tan. Please note that immediate shipment of standard-coloured products depends on stock availability; custom colour options are also available for bulk orders.
