Caps

The Wathen Company is proud to offer the Stant line of fuel, radiator and oil filler caps. Stant is the leading supplier of fuel, radiator and oil filler caps of all types to both the original equipment manufacturer and the automotive aftermarket.

 

Gas/Fuel Caps 

A gas/fuel cap performs three very important functions; safety of the vehicle's occupants, fuel economy and reduce emissions.

Safety: Without a fuel cap, gasoline vapors will be present around your car at all times Those vapors can be ignited by a random spark or flame and are very dangerous if you are involved in an accident or rollover.

Fuel Economy: According to Sun Oil Company research, a vehicle with a missing or inoperative fuel cap will allow 176 pounds (22 gallons) of gasoline to evaporate over the period of one year.

Emissions: Gasoline vapors emit hydrocarbons which dissolve the earth's ozone layer and cause smog.

Radiator Caps

Stant offers a wide variety of radiator cap styles and applications for U.S. and import cars, light trucks, HD trucks, off-road and ag equipment. Lev-R-Vent provide a pressure release lever to safely vent the pressure prior to removing the cap. Swiv-el radiator caps are designed for easy installation and removal because the shell of the cap rotates independently of the upper sealing gasket, stem and bottom plate.

Oil Filler Caps

Stant offers excellent oil filler cap coverage and is the leading supplier of oil filler caps of all types. These include not only filler caps for closed PCV systems, but special diesel breather oil filler caps for General Motors diesel engine vehicles, open crankcase breather-type caps, and threaded plastic oil filler caps for popular import cars and light trucks.
