Review on Lisle 57030 Standard Filter Swivel by Chris Durandis

Last filter wrench I ever have to buy

I'm happy to spend the extra money and buy quality tools that work great and last a long time, oddly this rule never applied to oil filter wrenches however. I've used cheap metal strap wrenches from auto parts stores that fall apart after a short use, canvas wrenches that don't hold up well, stupid ones that you snap onto a ratchet with useless fingers, rubber band wrenches. They're not even worth selling, they break so easily and in the end I decided I was done with all that junk. Changing the oil myself should be an easy task, not a frustration test when I'm doing it with a trash filter wrench. I was finally looking for the best key for it that I could find, I didn't care how much it would cost, I found this one and having only used it once I'd happily pay 2-3 times more for it pay if here what would it cost. It's durable, heavy weight and well thought out, you can say this is the last filter key you will ever want or need to buy. Fuel filter -0750 (or original Duramax). It's too big for the fuel filter on my AirDog FF100-2 suction pump, so I'm going to order a smaller one. If you're not sure what key size you need, just take a look at the filter specifications. you want to use on the manufacturer's website, the filter dimensions are listed there. Enlarge these wrenches, they show the size range on the handle.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • I'll add later
