M12 x 1.25 Magnetic Sump Plug - Stainless Steel Oil Drain Bolt with Washer

Description

Protect your engine with this high-performance M12 x 1.25 Magnetic Oil Drain Plug. Engineered specifically for Japanese and select European engines, this plug replaces your standard sump bolt with an upgraded version featuring a powerful internal neodymium magnet. It actively captures microscopic ferrous metal particles and debris circulating in your engine oil, preventing them from scratching vital components like bearings and cylinder walls.

Constructed from high-grade silver metal (designed to resist corrosion and stripping), this plug is built for the long haul. We've included 5 Copper Crush Washers, providing you with a fresh, leak-proof seal for your next five oil changes. It's the smartest R200 you'll ever spend on your bakkie or car.

Key Features

• Engine Defense: The high-tensile magnet traps harmful metal shavings, extending engine life and keeping your oil cleaner between services.
• Precision Threads: Machined to exact M12 x 1.25 specifications, ensuring a perfect, anti-leak fit for compatible vehicles (no stripping!).
• Rugged Construction: Made from durable, heat-resistant metal to withstand the harsh environment of a hot oil pan.

ZA Market Pro-Tips

The "Sniffer" Test: Mechanics often look at the metal filings on the magnet to "sniff" out engine health. If the magnet is clean, the engine is happy!

Preventing Leaks: Emphasize the Copper Washers. Many DIYers reuse old washers, which leads to oil spots on the driveway. Giving them 5 washers solves this problem for years.

Torque Warning: Add a note in your listing: "Do not overtighten! Recommended torque is typically 25-30 Nm. Overtightening can damage the oil pan
