⚠️ Fitment Advisory & Refund Policy
Important: These are "New Style" caps engineered for Scepter MWCs manufactured by Scepter Canada in 2018 or later. Scepter Canada states these will not properly fit legacy cans produced prior to 2018.
Field Test Results: Container Authority technicians tested this new style cap on a pre-2018 Scepter MWC. While the cap threaded down tight, there was a slight alignment issue with the locking strap securing to the can's locking tab. We have not verified leak-proof performance on legacy cans. This item is sold "Buyer Beware"—no refunds will be issued if the cap does not meet your specific legacy application.

Potable Water Integrity
Scepter Military Water Cans are constructed from BPA-free plastics. HDPE and LDPE materials ensure no plastic leaching occurs, even during long-term storage (rated for 15+ years). While MWCs are designed for transport and short-term storage, maintaining optimal temperature control is the most critical factor for fluid longevity.
Technical FAQ
Does this assembly include all three caps?
Yes. This is a complete assembly including the main large cap, the small pour cap, and the atmospheric vent cap, plus the main rubber O-ring gasket.
Why is there no refund for fitment issues?
Due to the technical nature of Scepter's 2018 design change, we provide all known data regarding legacy compatibility up front. Because these are potable water components, we cannot restock items once fitment has been attempted on unverified legacy units.
