Description
Stainless Steel Engine Oil Drain Plug for LS and LT (2016 & newer) engines will pull unwanted metals out of your motor oil resulting in longer engine life. According to General Motors, by using bypass filters you could get the micron size of metal contaminants down to 10 microns. Their testing proved that by this reduction in micron size alone, you could extend the life an engine by a whopping 70% which has caused many oil drain plugs with magnets to become available. This drain plug is proudly MADE IN USA (Manitowac, WI). Drain plugs are manufactured with real quality stainless steel (Not Pot Metal) that will last for countless years to come. This drain plug is designed to stout a lasting strength so it's the last drain plug you will ever need to purchase. Includes an aluminum crush washer; Yes also MADE IN USA.
What makes this drain plug unique outside its flawless craftsmanship and top-notch materials is the heart of it, a HIGH TEMPERATURE NEODYMIUM MAGNET. This plug uses a rare earth high strength neodymium magnet, rated specifically to function in high temperature environments extracting unwanted ferrous particles from your vehicles engine. The VOTEX drain plug magnet will operate in temperatures to 150°C or 302°F, this is higher than most standard magnets which stop working at 175°F. A quality motor oil will tolerate oil temperatures up to 250 degrees, but starts breaking down once you reach 275 degrees. The operating temperature for engine oil is between 194 to 230°F, so our magnet will work in temperatures far past that of engine oil.
The drain plug market has a plethora of options, most of which are constructed of aluminum. Aluminum is an inferior metal choice due to its strength and commonly shear/snap leaving you with a broken plug stuck in your oil pan. Aluminum has no place as the material for a drain plug. Our goal with the complete design of our plug is to provide one with the highest quality standard, that starts with using a metal that will be strong enough to last for years. Our 304 stainless steel is sourced from here in the states, promising not to be a weak recycled material often found in foreign metals.
