Advantages
|
|
The unique engineering of the SMART-O oil drain plug offers a variety of advantages over regular oil drain plugs: |
|
|
 |
Safe sealing function: |
|
|
O-ring prevents oil from leaking throught threads due to self-expansion of material. |
|
 |
Anti-vibration function: |
|
|
O-ring grips tightly into threads, virtually eliminating self-loosening of the plug caused by excessive vibration. |
|
 |
Thread guard: |
|
|
O-ring reduces the need for excess torquing - less risk of damaging oil pan threads and costly oil pan replacement. |
|
 |
Reduced inventory: |
|
|
Based on form-fit-function, a vast plug range has been consolidated to cover a majority of the vehicles in the market - with fewer plugs! |
|
 |
Quick plug ID + match-up: |
|
|
patented head marking system for easy and quick plug matchup with the right vehicles; highly flexible and adjustable plug storage system; ;comprehensive information and training material |
|
 |
Eco-protection: |
|
|
Significantly reduces oil leaks into environment - engine oil is the main water pollutant in the US. The black surface coating is free of the harmful Cr6 substance as often found in shiny-looking, zinc-plated plugs - better suited for recycling and RoHS compliant. As long as the O-ring is intact, the plug is safe for re-use, requiring less replacements. |
|
|
The specially engineered O-ring utilizes intelligent materials made in Germany and USA - exclusively developed for the SMART-O. The heat-resistant material expands when exposed to engine oil. |

SMART-O advantages |
|
|
|
Motorists are well familiar with oil plug horror stories, where plugs fail due to mismatching, being untorqued or overtorqued. This often leads to damaged oil pans, rapid oil loss and ultimately costly engine replacements. |
|
|
|
However, the SMART-O™ Plug is much more than an oil drain plug - it's a complete safety system! |
|
|
|
In short, SMART-O™ offers benefits way beyond keeping the oil inside the oil pan: |
