It includes three specialty attachments plus a 1\/4\" hex socket drive and a flexible shaft so you can pre-loosen plugs with a conventional wrench, latch the magnetic attachment, then withdraw or re-thread the plug without dropping it into the oil pan or putting your hand in hot oil. The attachments are carried on a molded rail for tidy storage and quick selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this kit prevent dropped drain plugs and splatter?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit’s magnetic attachments hold the plug or bolt securely after you break it loose with a wrench, so the fastener doesn’t fall away into the oil.
