Big Squeeze Pail & Can Crusher

The Big Squeeze Pail & Can Crusher is an air-powered crusher that reduces the size of empty metal paint cans, pails and oil filters so they are easier and cheaper to store, transport and recycle. It drains leftover liquids into a separate container and automatically stops for safety when the door is opened.

Benefits

• Lower disposal costs by shrinking containers so you pay to move and discard less volume.
• Free up storage and truck space — crushed containers take far less room on-site and in transit.
• Faster processing — crush many items in minutes instead of handling each by hand.
• Safer handling — automatic door-stop and controlled pneumatic operation reduce pinch and spill risks.
• Easier recycling and compliance — liquids are separated for proper disposal and metal can be reclaimed as scrap.

Features

• Pneumatic operation using standard shop air for automatic crush and retract cycles.
• Crushes one-gallon cans, five-gallon metal pails and many automotive/light-truck oil filters.
• Built-in drain system directs excess fluids to a separate container for proper disposal.
• Automatic safety stop when the access door is opened.
• Fast cycle times: gallon cans, oil filters and similar items crush in under 30 seconds; 5-gallon pails in about one minute.

Specifications

• Volume reduction: up to 75% smaller than uncrushed containers.
• Crush result: reduces a 5-gallon pail to approximately 2.5 inches tall.
• Filter reduction: reduces a 7-inch oil filter to about 1.5 inches in under 30 seconds.
• Power source: standard shop compressed air (pneumatic).
• Compatible container types: one-gallon metal cans, five-gallon metal pails, automotive and light-truck oil filters.
• Safety note: all cans and pails must be open (not sealed) before crushing; not suitable for glass containers or items that may shatter or contain volatile vapors.
