Votex Quick Drain Valves are proudly MADE IN THE USA, offering superior quality construction. Meticulously crafted in Wisconsin from stainless steel bar stock material, our valves are designed to last for countless years. Each plug includes an aluminum crush washer and drain hose. Experience no more messy oil changes with our hassle-free, tool-free process, featuring a release valve and hose that drains warm oil at a quart per minute directly into your waste container. Unlike many soft metal plugs that snap or shear, our high-quality stainless steel plug body, valve, valve spring, and cap ensure exceptional strength and durability. The compact design minimizes clearance issues and avoids contact with objects on the roadway, providing safer and more convenient oil changes. Installation is straightforward with the included aluminum crush washer and a simple 4-step operation, making oil changes quick and efficient. For the best results, operate the valve when the engine is at operating temperature.
