Fingers don't grip filters properly

Returned fingers don't grip filters properly, just slide over them. I really wish they were better as the price was great and the fingers on the instrument actually moved the way they were designed.

Pros
  • Notched feet provide extra grip
Cons
  • Updates

worked great for 2 weeks

The product has worked great for 2 weeks. The oil filters came off easily and I had the best filter wrench I had. Then a weld broke on one of the levers where it connects to the gear.

Pros
  • Remove all spin-on filters from cars and pickup trucks with this wrench
Cons
  • Does not work

Wish - Legs were slightly longer

This filter wrench appears to work very well. I bought this filter wrench to remove a large, 12" long, 4 1/2" diameter oil filter from our RV's Cummins engine. This wrench like this is the only way to remove the filter as you cannot wrap your hands around the filter nor can you put the filter tape around the filter due to its installation location. The legs of this filter wrench are 2 1/2 inches long. I wish they were an inch longer. The reason is that you lose some leg length if your filter…

  • Warning do not use with power tools
