CHANNELLOCK® 2012 Oil Filter/PVC Pliers with angled head combine the strength and reliability of our iconic Tongue & Groove Pliers with the special needs of large PVC and oil filters.

Great tool for removing filters. The angled head makes it easier to access filters at awkward angles.

Have yet to use them
Have yet to use them, although I have 3 oil changes coming up. These pliers should be able to handle anything I throw at them.

Good tool
I got this larger of the two offered. If just doing cars get the small one, but I own both big n small vehicles and would buy the two piece set if doing again.
