ABSTRACT:
A safety ring for an end of a fire extinguisher is characterized by an underlying portion adjacent the lowermost end of the extinguisher. Flange portions extend upwardly from the underlying portion about the lowermost end of the extinguisher, to protect same and to enhance the retention of the ring on said extinguisher. The ring has a preferably U-shaped cross-section, and alternatively or additionally may be retained in operative protective relationship with the extinguisher by an adhesive substance or the like. Sloping upper edges of the flange portions provide desirable benefits, including reducing the risk of inadvertent dislodgment of the ring from the extinguisher and reducing the collection of water, dirt and the like on the edge of the flange. One or more holes may be provided in the ring to permit drainage of fluids and to permit easier cleaning of the ring. Hose-retaining means may be integrally provided with the ring.
