Review on πŸ”§ OTC Tools 5911A Drain Plug Pro Magnetic Remover: Easy Solution for Efficient Drain Plug Removal by Salvador Taisacan

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Don't buy if you have a stainless steel plug. This will not be attached

Whilst the design and adjustments are good, unfortunately I have to return it in new, unused condition today, having just received it. I have found that it absolutely does not work with the stainless steel magnetic drain plug that I also ordered. I also checked the magnetic fork on my bike and it's SS too. I considered epoxy sealing a small magnet on the drain plug to allow the magnets to pull on the tool, but the socket didn't quite match the head to the plug to turn. I wish the product description didn't mention that it can't be used with stainless steel connectors. The attached picture shows that the tool does not engage the drain plug, it actually pushes it back with the polarity reversed.

Pros
