Tell us more about that excellent strap wrench 🙃

Worst filter removal of all time was when I changed the oil filter on a rotary screw compressor. Shut it down and let it cool for 15 minutes and it took me and another guy wrenching on it with all we had to get it removed. We decided to not do the next compressor until the next morning to do it cold. Same model and the sucker broke loose by hand. You learn something every day

Changing the oil filters on a Sterling LT9500 with a Detroit S60, had to remove the coolant filter and bracket and a few other bits then hammer my largest screwdriver through it and put a 1m cheater pipe on it then push from under while my buddy pulled the pipe from outside the frame... It was on so tight that the spigot the filter fits to turned out a few threads and it had a little leak after. Fun.

Anyone who’s spent any time in a shop will know that squeezing two wrenches together in one hand can produce a ton of torque relatively easily compared to trying to pull/push on one wrench the traditional way. Seems to me like you could use one of these to tighten a filter in a really hard to reach spot as well as loosen. I wonder if they’ll come out with a ratcheting version of this tool or one that will work with cartridge style European filters. Awesome review Tim! I can’t wait to try this tool myself.

That does work, but the other half of this wrench only serves the purpose to push the wrench handle back away from your hand. The "squeeze" is not really a feature that actually uses grip strength It's just a giant funny looking box end wrench

Ya probably vehicles that have paper filters inside a plastic housing.

I bought one of these and it didn't work for my application which was a Toyota oil filter. I believe that the problem was that the tool was too big for my oil filter even though I told them exactly the part number of the oil filter that I was using which is Toyota 90915-YZZN1. Now these filters are truly tiny but since I provided them with this information I would have expected them to send me an appropriately sized wrench. I use a cup style wrench made by Motive X which is a beautifully machined billet aluminum tool that fits the 90915-YZZN1 perfectly and does a great job. Incidentally Toyota provides a torque spec for their oil filter which is 17.5 N-m which I do use with my torque wrench to tighten my filters.

Wonder if this would work good for semis, would be nice if I can use it on volvo filters, isuzu filters, and external transmission filters

One of the only filters you would want to use this on is an overtightened filter and this thing fails miserably. I just ordered a strap wrench - thanks for educating me on which wrench is better.

Once I worked on a Yaris, client stated that his "friend" did the last oil change. I had to stab the filter with a flat screwdriver to create lever because my oil wrenches couldnt get a grip. It was really tight. Only managed to pull 2 quarts out, extremely thick, dark and smelled aweful. Im willingto bet that the "friend" stole his oil and never did the change.

One is legit, the other is a clown.

well watching you fuss with it in that bench top ideal position, there's no way I'd buy one, but the silver lining is It gave me an idea for a high pressure hydro filter wrench that really does need to be torqued down like a beast.

I think this would work fine for filters that are not stuck, that just got normal torque during installation and have not been on for extended periods. But for a filter that was cranked on, or hard stuck from extended time, I am not believing this thing is going to have any chance to remove them.

🤔Now you forgot or just didn't think of showing us. Just how good it can tighten the oil filter on!

I was thinking of buying one, but after watching your video, I changed my mind. Looks like the inner tabs will wear out fast and it has limited torque

It's gonna blow up now, because that's motorcycle oil!

Their website isn't real clear as to what size(s) a guy would need. I'm thinking of one for a Harley and one for a 24valve Cummins.
