AimsTools Adjustable Oil Filter Pliers 31.75-73 mm

These pliers remove stubborn oil filters on automotive and small engines. The adjustable jaws cover diameters from 31.75 mm to 73 mm. Professional technicians and DIY mechanics use them for routine filter changes. The 265 mm length provides leverage in confined engine bays.

Installation ease and common issues

Open the jaws, position them on the filter, and squeeze the handles to engage the ratchet lock. The grooved jaws and plastisol-coated handles resist slipping during high-torque removal. Forcing the tool on oversized or crushed filters can damage the jaw mechanism. Always ensure the lock is fully seated before applying force.

Practical limits of the adjustable jaw mechanism

The maximum capacity is 73 mm, so larger cartridge or diesel filters will not fit. The ratchet offers discrete steps rather than infinite adjustment, which may leave slight play on some filter sizes. Corrosion on the filter body can still reduce grip despite the grooved design. Extreme torque loads may exceed the forged construction's yield point.

Questions about this item

How do I know the pliers are gripping the filter correctly after I position them?

The grooved jaws should bite into the filter body without slipping; the ratchet and locking mechanism will click into a snug setting that holds the filter firmly while you apply torque.

What comes in the box and is anything else needed to use the tool?

The package contains the 265 mm adjustable oil filter pliers with plastisol-coated handles; no additional parts or accessories are required for operation.

Which filter sizes does the 31.75 mm to 73 mm range cover and how do I pick the right setting?

The pliers adjust continuously from 31.75 mm up to 73 mm, fitting most automotive and small-engine oil filters; select the setting that lets the jaws close tightly around your specific filter diameter.
