Just lift the lever of this solid brass ball valve and give it a quarter turn to open it.
Return the lever to its original position and it locks closed, double sealed to prevent leakage.
The Engine Oil Drain Valve is made of corrosion resistant forged brass and stainless steel.
The ball valve design provides a straight flow for efficient drainage and a perfect seal when closed. Frozen drain plug and stripped threads are eliminated forever.

I've arranged a group buy with the local supplier

10+ valves – 10% off
20+ valves – 20% off
50+ valves – 25% off
100+ valves – 30% off (A$21 each)

I would like members to be aware that fitting will also remove your magnet in your sump plug which traps any loose metal objects in your engine.
