Oil Filter Strap Wrench 57612 VOREL
A strap wrench for removing and fitting oil filters on cars and vans. A workshop tool designed for filters with a diameter of 73 mm to 85 mm.
Features of the oil filter strap wrench
Diameter range 73-85 mm
Compatible with most oil filters fitted to popular cars and small vans. The range covers the standard sizes used by manufacturers such as VW, Ford, Opel, Renault and Toyota.
Strap design
A flexible metal strap conforms to the shape of the filter, spreading the clamping force evenly around the circumference. It minimises the risk of deforming the filter housing when undoing it, which matters in a tightly packed engine bay.
Clamping mechanism
The clamping system lets you tighten the strap around the filter gradually until you have a secure grip. The greater the resistance when undoing the filter, the tighter the strap grips it, preventing slipping.
Material
Tool steel in the strap and handle construction provides resistance to deformation under heavy loads. The tool maintains its working performance even with frequent workshop use.

How to check compatibility with a filter
Before buying, measure the outside diameter of the oil filter currently fitted. Take the measurement with a measuring tape or vernier caliper at the widest point of the filter housing. The 57612 wrench handles filters from 73 mm to 85 mm in diameter, which covers most of the designs used in the compact and mid-size car segments.
Use and maintenance
Before use, check the condition of the strap and the clamping mechanism. A damaged or deformed strap may not provide enough grip. When working, the wrench is placed over the filter from above or from the side, depending on the space available, and the clamping mechanism is then tightened until the strap sits fully against the filter.
Apply force in the direction of undoing the filter, avoiding sudden jerks that can make the tool slip. After use, it is worth cleaning the strap of any leftover oil and dirt, which extends the life of the tool and prevents corrosion of the metal parts.
Common problems when changing an oil filter
Oil filters are often overtightened or stuck in their seat as a result of high temperature and oil pressure. In addition, leftover oil on the housing can make standard socket wrenches slip. The strap wrench solves this problem by increasing the gripping surface and using a self-tightening mechanism.
