Customer Retention: Offers an economical repair path that keeps jobs profitable while reducing customer wait times for specialty parts.

Stock Optimization: Compact case design fits easily into tool racks or mobile service vehicles. Five thread sizes in one organized package reduce shelf space compared to stocking individual repair solutions.

Margin Control: Lower cost-per-repair compared to complete pan replacement, improving labor-to-parts ratio on routine maintenance jobs.
