Description

Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) jugs are containers specifically designed to store and dispense DEF, which is a non-toxic solution used in modern diesel engines equipped with selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems. DEF helps reduce harmful emissions by converting nitrogen oxides (NOx) into harmless nitrogen and water vapor.

DEF jugs are typically made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or another suitable material that is compatible with DEF. They are available in various sizes, commonly ranging from 1 gallon (3.8 liters) to 2.5 gallons (9.5 liters), although larger sizes may also be available.

These jugs usually have a secure screw-on cap or a spout with a sealing mechanism to prevent contamination and leakage. They often feature markings or indicators to measure the amount of DEF remaining inside the container.

When refilling a diesel vehicle’s DEF tank, users can pour DEF from the jugs into the vehicle’s DEF filler neck or use a dispensing nozzle for easier and cleaner pouring.

It’s important to handle DEF jugs with care, store them in a cool and dry place to maintain their quality, and avoid mixing DEF with other substances, such as diesel fuel or water, as it could compromise the effectiveness of the DEF solution.
