Review on CTA Tools 2596: Powerful Heavy Duty Nylon Strap Filter Wrench for Efficient Filter Removal by Daniel Morris

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Strong torque power

This is a professional filter removal tool. I'm an old shade tree mechanic who has struggled with countless frozen filters for years and uses a variety of tools to loosen different sized stuck filters. I used my own handmade strap tool for a while, but even that didn't work for my latest challenge. I frantically searched the internet for anything to get the job done. This strap wrench from CTA broke the seal with a quick turn of the ratchet like instant magic. However, it is recommended to soak the tape overnight as the nylon is a bit stiff and slippery at first. It was so easy that even with a half-crushed filter, it delivered some seriously serious torque. Great buy, lasts a long time. The heavy nickel/chrome bit is cast strong and precise. Take this wrench and throw away the rest of the tools.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Some complications
