CHAPIN 12‑Quart Low‑Profile Oil Drain Pan — Splash‑Reducing Target, Molded Handles

The CHAPIN 78005 is a 12‑quart (11.4 L) low‑profile oil drain pan engineered to slide under low‑clearance vehicles and collect oil and fluids with a splash‑reducing target area.

If you perform routine oil or coolant changes on ATVs, lawn mowers, motorcycles, tractors or compact vehicles, cleanup and access can be the hardest parts. The CHAPIN 78005 addresses both by combining a slim underbody profile with a wide, splash‑controlling collection zone, molded handles for carrying, and a leak‑free tank designed for single‑service changes. Built in the USA using recycled plastic and backed by a one‑year limited warranty, it aims to make fluid maintenance faster and neater.

How does the low‑profile design help under tight vehicles?

The pan measures under 5 inches tall so it slips beneath machines with limited ground clearance. That lets you position the pan directly beneath the drain without jacking or elevating the vehicle in many cases. Reduced lifting saves time and lowers the chance of spills from awkward placement.

• Under‑5‑inch height fits most ATVs, lawn mowers and motorcycles
• Flat, slim shape for easy slide‑under access
• Large target area reduces repositioning during a drain

Will it keep my shop clean and prevent splashes?

The wide target zone is shaped to contain draining fluids and limit airborne splatter when oil or coolant falls from the drain point. The pan’s molded contours guide fluid toward the center so routine changes create less mess on the floor. Because the tank is built leak‑free, captured fluids stay contained until you’re ready to pour or recycle them.

• Splash‑reducing catch geometry for cleaner drains
• Leak‑resistant construction for secure storage between services
• Works with oil, coolant and similar automotive additives

How easy is it to move and empty the CHAPIN 78005?

Molded‑in carry handles let you lift, tip and control the pan when transporting used fluids to a recycling container. The 12‑quart (11.4 L) capacity is sized for most single service jobs, so you rarely need multiple trips. The pan’s balanced shape reduces sloshing while you carry it to disposal points.

• Molded handles for secure lifting and pouring
• 12‑quart capacity holds typical single oil changes comfortably
• Low center of gravity minimizes slosh during transport

Who this is for: the CHAPIN 78005 is intended for homeowners, hobbyists and small‑equipment mechanics who change fluids on low‑clearance vehicles and want a cleaner, easier process. It’s particularly useful if you work on ATVs, lawn equipment, motorcycles or compact tractors and need a reliable, portable pan that minimizes spills and simplifies transport to recycling facilities.
