BLACKROBOT 8-Piece 3/8in Drive Low-Profile Oil Filter Socket Set — 24–38mm, Cr-V Steel, 6-Point

BLACKROBOT's 8-piece low profile 3/8" drive oil filter socket set is a compact, durable kit of 6-point sockets (24–38mm) designed to remove and install cartridge oil filter caps in tight engine bays. This low-profile socket set packs eight commonly used metric sizes—24, 27, 28, 29, 30, 32, 36 and 38 mm—into a single portable case for fast access during routine maintenance. Forged from heat-treated chrome vanadium steel with a protective black coating, each socket is made for hand tools and non-impact use, balancing corrosion resistance with strength. The slim profile and 6-point internal fit help reach recessed filter caps and reduce slippage on rounded or stubborn fasteners.

Which vehicles and filter caps does this set fit?

The included range covers many domestic and import models that use cartridge-style oil filters. Sizes in the kit match commonly found OEM cap dimensions so you can service trucks, sedans, and SUVs without improvising.

• Includes 24–38mm sizes to suit many Ford, GM, Jeep, Toyota and European models
• Designed for cartridge-type oil filter housings, not spin-on canister filters
• Works with recessed caps where a low-profile socket is required

How is build quality and corrosion resistance handled?

BLACKROBOT sockets are forged from heat-treated chrome vanadium (Cr-V) steel for enhanced hardness and durability when used with ratchets and hand tools. A black protective finish reduces surface corrosion and keeps the kit serviceable over time in workshop conditions.

• Heat-treated Cr-V steel offers wear resistance and rigidity
• Black coating helps resist rust and extends service life
• 6-point geometry minimizes rounding of filter cap flats

Can these sockets reach tight or recessed filter housings?

The sockets’ low-profile design is purposely slim to get into narrow engine compartments and recessed filter covers where standard deep sockets cannot fit. This improves access in compact engine bays and around other components like fuel filters or intake manifolds.

• Low profile for clearance in cramped engine bays
• 3/8" drive fits common ratchets and extensions for leverage
• Sockets grip tightly to reduce slippage during removal or installation

What tools and workshop situations are these sockets best used with?

These are intended for use with non-impact, 3/8" drive hand tools such as ratchets and breaker bars for controlled torque application. The kit is ideal for garages, mobile mechanics, and DIYers performing routine oil changes or filter replacements.

• Use with 3/8" drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches (non-impact)
• Compact case for workshop benches, tool chests, or vehicle trunks
• Suitable for home garages, professional shops, and roadside repairs

Who is this for If you perform your own oil changes or manage a small repair shop, this BLACKROBOT socket set is tailored for anyone who needs reliable access to cartridge-style oil filter caps in tight spaces.
