Generic 4.5 Gallon Low-Profile Oil Drain Pan — Heavy-Duty Plastic, Easy-Pour Spout

The Generic 4.5 Gallon Oil Drain Pan is a low-profile, heavy-duty plastic catch container with an easy-pour spout that captures engine oil and other fluids for clean, spill-free disposal.

Whether you're changing the oil in a car, lawn mower, motorcycle, or generator, the Generic 4.5 Gallon Drain Pan is built to simplify the job and keep your workspace tidy. Molded from tough plastic that resists oil and common workshop chemicals, this pan holds most full oil changes without overflowing. Its shallow profile slides under low-clearance equipment and the integrated handles plus precision pour spout make pouring used oil into a recycling jug faster and neater than awkward funnels or flimsy containers.

How much oil will this pan hold and will it handle a full oil change?

This drain pan holds up to 4.5 gallons (about 17 liters), large enough for most passenger vehicles and many small engines. The capacity helps avoid mid-job transfers and reduces the chance of spills during busy maintenance sessions.
