Product Information

Full details

The Clarke 16 Litre Oil Spill Pan is designed for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts working in garages or workshops, offering a robust solution for managing oil and fluid spills. Its primary benefit is the large 16-litre capacity, minimizing the need for frequent emptying during extended tasks. A minor consideration is that while it features a spout, a separate hose may be required for a complete, sealed drainage system.
