Will this crush 32 oz. cans??

I know it can handle the width, but I am not sure about the height. I have done 20 oz without a problem.

Yes, this will crush 32 oz cans. I have crushed many 32 oz cans with this crusher. Just make sure to keep the vertical rails lubricated with some WD-40 before each use.

It will crush the taller cans; however, the leverage on the handle required to crush the taller cans the handle does need TLC in order to not break it. With a bit of adjustment after it came apart it works well. He had the two piece handle welded so it would not come apart. It was a gift for my son and the comment is according to what he has stated. Overall he is pleased with the product. Hope this is helpful to you and answers your concerns.

I haven't been able to find a 32oz can to test this with. I've crushed 24 and 25 ounce cans with ease. As long as it will fit in the 9" "chamber" for lack of a better word. This crusher will crush it. It is quite robust. I'm glad I spent the extra money purchasing this product.

Hi Maureen, I know you asked this back in January but I just now saw it. I have crushed several 32oz cans with no problems. So far I've crushed over 500lbs with this unit and have used it on everything from 5.5oz up to the 32oz and everything in between. Don't try the al bottles though.

Yes, but I'm pretty sure that's how my handle snapped off. Perhaps if your very careful for the 32oz ones, it will last longer, but you need the long handle for leverage. The video on their website is helpful.

I haven't used it for 32 ounce cans but according to the description it does work for them.

i don't think so. You have to grab the can with one hand and push the botton with the other.

I don't think so. Even though the can crusher is one tough cookie it's designed to crush aluminum soda can, not dog food cans. You might actually end up damaging the can crusher if you attempted to crush heavy tin cans.

Let me answer it this way I have used it to crush the cans that the energy drinks that look like a bottle on the top. Since I dont drink that type of beer I cant say 100% but if it will crush the bottle cans that I have put in it I am sure it should do the job. It is very heavy duty I know that since someone threw a steel can by mistake in my cans and I was able to crush that also although I do wouldn't advise continuous crushing of steel cans.

Not easily, if at all. I just tried a dog food can ... it was almost too wide to fit in the opening. I used both hands with as much force as I could without risking pulling the crusher out of the wall and didn't even make a dent in the can. Pop cans, on the other hand, can be crushed with one hand and little effort.

Only rarely have I ever needed to fit a size larger than a standard 12 oz. can, but when I did, with a little pre-squeezing, a 16 oz. can would fit enough for crushing.

When crushing each can,you have to exert several pounds of upward force. My ram is mounted to a 4x4. If it wasn't mounted, I wouldn't be crushing anything!(BTW, what is the metric equivalent of pounds?)

Absolutely. Even thinner but sturdier cans are crushed with ease, not just the standard 12oz. Sometimes we purchase the small-can 7-8oz Cokes and the only mild hassle is having to hold your hand to the can until the crusher gains adequate pressure to keep it from falling mid-crush, but for regular-taller beverages that's never an issue because it form fits straight away. I have found that it makes less noise and gives to crushing easier when you press a small dent into the empty can pre-crush --- Go physics!

NO, there is no manual can crusher available to crush the thick walled aluminum bottles. The MasterCrush Aluminum Can Crusher is for standard drink cans and plastic drink bottles. It works great on the larger 24 oz cans and even a 32 oz can we found.

I doubt it. I have not attempted but I have attempted to crush RedBull cans which are a little taller than standard cans and it does not fit. if I slightly crunch it by hand to make it an appropriate height it works though. You just have to make sure not to crush it too much or the pressure of the can crusher won't hold it in place to finish crushing it. Sounds complicated, in actuality isn't really, just a slight hassle.

I have the 16 oz. size flask. Cannot answer honestly about the 32oz size. Don't think it will work, but that's a guess since I don't have the 32oz. size

No I don't believe it would. The way it works is it tilts as you crush the can so that it drops the can when you release it. That in itself would make it too difficult to crush that small a can. I also don't think cat food cans are made of the same material.

Maybe. It would take a big dog to knock it over. It's heavy and opens with a foot pedal. The compacting center piece is held with a magnet I think and won't come out of the can without pushing it down and opening the can. I bought another one for another place. Great can.

Normally yes, but since Im determined to prove to you and world that this is the best can crusher made today I will send you a replacement. Please don't attempt to crush aluminum bottles. Only thin walled aluminum cans. Just contact me with your info.

Yes, it would. I love this can crusher. I have 10- 65 gallon barrels filled with crushed cans. Now, if I could find some of my Hispanic friends to take them to California at 5 cents a can, I'll make alot of money. (Seinfeld / Kramer joke)

I've only used it on Aluminum drink cans as well. I would not expect that it can handle food cans or such like that though.

Definitely would knock down beverage cans. Feels to me like the force equivalent of a whiffle ball.
