Oil Filter Clamp Wrench AWTools AW17105, adjustable 55–110 mm

The AWTools Oil Filter Clamp Wrench AW17105 is an adjustable hand tool designed to remove and install cylindrical oil filters with diameters from 55 to 110 mm. Constructed for workshop and DIY maintenance, this clamp wrench grips the filter housing firmly to transmit torque while minimising the risk of deforming or damaging the filter canister. Its adjustable range and durable build make it compatible with a wide variety of passenger cars, motorcycles and light trucks where a strap-style or band-type wrench is unsuitable.

Advantages

This adjustable oil filter clamp wrench provides a secure, non-slip grip across a broad diameter range, reducing the need to carry multiple fixed-size tools. The clamp design distributes force evenly around the filter housing to reduce crushing and marring. Robust materials and a reinforced handle connection ensure repeated use in workshop environments. The simple adjustment mechanism allows fast sizing to the filter and stable engagement during both removal and installation.

Suitable for

• Removing and installing cylindrical oil filters with diameters between 55 and 110 mm
• Routine vehicle maintenance for cars, motorcycles and light commercial vehicles
• Workshop use where controlled torque and filter protection are required
• Home or DIY servicing to replace oil filters without specialized equipment

Key specifications

• Adjustable clamping diameter: 55–110 mm
• Clamp-style wrench suitable for cylindrical filter canisters
• Durable construction designed for repeated workshop use
• Ergonomic handle interface for manual torque application
• Quick adjustment mechanism for fast sizing and engagement

How to use

Select the correct clamping range by adjusting the wrench until it fits snugly around the oil filter canister. Position the clamp so it fully encircles the filter housing and ensure even contact around the circumference. Apply steady turning force at the handle to loosen or tighten the filter; avoid sudden jerks. For filters with limited clearance, adjust the orientation to achieve the best leverage while maintaining even pressure to prevent dents. After use, clean off oil and debris and store the wrench in a dry place.

Usage recommendations

For safe and effective operation, use the wrench with controlled, steady torque rather than high impact force. Inspect the filter housing for rust or damage before clamping, and if the housing is corroded or thin-walled, consider an alternative removal method to avoid further damage. Regularly clean and lightly lubricate moving parts of the wrench to maintain smooth adjustment.
