Product Description
Brief Overview
This 3/8" drive oil filter wrench delivers reliable, fast oil changes for European automotive applications. The 76mm cup design with 12 flutes engages standard spin-on oil filter end caps, allowing technicians to remove and install filters with standard ratchet tools. Ideal for high-volume service shops, this tool pairs naturally with adjustable spiral filter wrenches for wider filter ranges or fixed-capacity alternatives for specialized engine variants.
Key Features
- 3/8" Square Drive: Direct compatibility with standard ratchets, extensions, and impact tools
- 76mm Capacity: Precisely sized for OEM filter specifications
- 12-Flute Design: Maximizes grip on filter caps, reducing slip and rounding risk
- Cup-Style Construction: Domed pressed-metal body with 1.2mm wall thickness
- Black Finish: Durable coating resists corrosion in workshop environments
- Lightweight: Reduces fatigue during high-volume filter changes

Reseller Value Proposition
This wrench fills a critical position in European service shop tool kits. Its narrow focus—serving three major manufacturers with overlapping vehicle populations—means you'll see repeat orders from shops that work on these models regularly. Bundle it with transmission oil filter wrenches in larger capacities to cross-sell additional applications to the same customer base. Stock levels of 10–20 units per SKU typically turnover steadily in regions with high Citroën/Peugeot/Renault service volume.
Bottom Line: A no-nonsense, single-purpose tool that serves a defined market segment with precision. High demand predictability, minimal competition from universal alternatives in this exact size, and strong margin potential for distributors serving European specialist shops.
