FAQs
What types of plugs can this set remove?
This set is designed for drain and filler plugs found on engine oil sumps, back axles, differentials, and gearboxes. It includes various hex, square, and specialized square/triangle drive keys.
What vehicle makes are compatible with this set?

Do I need any other tools to use this set?

What material is the set made from?
The keys are manufactured from durable chrome vanadium steel.
How should I clean and store the set?
Wipe the keys clean with a cloth after use, removing any oil or dirt. Store them in the provided blow-moulded case to keep them organized and protected.
Are there any imperial sizes included?
Yes, the set includes one imperial square size: 5/16" and 3/8".
Can this set be used for other applications besides drain plugs?
While primarily designed for drain and filler plugs, the square and hex drives may be adaptable for other similar automotive fasteners, provided the size and drive type match.
Troubleshooting
Key does not fit plug securely
Verify you are using the correct size and type of key (hex, square, triangle). Double-check the vehicle's service manual for the specific plug type required. Ensure the plug is not damaged or rounded.
Key slips or rounds the plug
Ensure the key is fully seated into the plug recess. Apply steady, even pressure. If the plug is severely damaged or overtightened, consider using a penetrating oil and allowing it to soak before attempting removal again. For extremely stubborn plugs, a plug extractor might be necessary.
Blow mould case latch is difficult to open/close
Ensure no debris is obstructing the latch mechanism. Gently clean the latch area. If the plastic appears warped, try warming it slightly with a hairdryer (from a distance) and then carefully reshaping it.
