I guess getting two new-in-the-bag for $5 each was a good deal for me...
Didn't know the metal spouts worked with the plastic cans, thanks for that tip.

I can buy some the MFC nozzles directly from Scepter, these nozzles are brand new. The price for the nozzles is $27.00 each plus 5% tax and transport and that is with 0% markup. I can get a better price if I buy 100 to 200. The going price of these will be $30-$35 ea + shipping. Yea it is expensive but supply versus demand!!!! I also found out why the Scepter cans are not surplused by the military in the US: reason EPA rules

Customs has caught on to the "ship illegal Scepter fuel can products to the US for huge profit", and have been confiscating it at the border...............

You would think that those brave lads diligently gaurding our border would have higher priority targets to apprehend than the lowly gas can spout.

Any update
Has anybody found a way to get the Scepter nozzle here in the US?
Drive to Canada... Fill engine compartment with nozzles.. sneek back accross the border.. dont look guilty...
Geez what happened to the Adults that were running this country!
Maybe i should ask the Illegals on the corner to smuggle me some back from their country...

Try NAPA. They were able to get some of the Scepter products that I wanted, and didn't have to drive over to the plant. Way easier!

When mine leaked, I put a new rubber ring on it and that solved the problem.

Also, check the vent tube in the can. They can and do get blocked. When clear you can dump a can of fuel in a minute.

I received my package from JAGMTE. It was very well packaged in separate padded pouches and then combined into one padded envelope.
I had a can with a shredded cap strap. I had to break the collar ring to get it off it was such a tight fit. In the picture below is a side by side comparison of thicknesses of the new strap (left) from JAGMTE and the original one from Scepter (right). The new one is slightly thinner, and thus, more flexible.
