Lisle Transmission and Oil Drain Funnel 22" x 23" Heavy-Duty Flexible Catch Basin — Spill-Reducing, Parts-Trapping

Lisle 17892 is a heavy-duty, flexible lift drain funnel designed to enlarge the catch area for transmission fluid and oil while protecting loose parts during service. Designed for mechanics and home DIYers who work beneath vehicles on lifts or jacks, this rigid-yet-resilient funnel creates a larger, safer target zone to prevent spills and to trap washers, bolts, and other small components. Molded from durable plastic, it compresses if driven over and springs back to shape, reducing the chance of damage when tools, creepers, or wheels momentarily contact it. Measuring 22 inches by 23 inches, the funnel balances coverage with easy storage and handling.

How does this funnel reduce spills under a vehicle?

The Lisle 17892 broadens the effective catch area below drains, so fluid is more likely to land inside the funnel instead of on the shop floor. Its tapered profile guides oil or transmission fluid toward a central drain point or collection container for cleaner transfers.

• 22" x 23" surface area increases the capture zone compared with small pans
• Tapered design channels fluid to the exit for controlled draining
• Rigid edges help prevent splash-back during higher flow rates

Will it hold small parts and prevent lost hardware?

Yes — the deep, concave shape catches dropped components and keeps them contained until you retrieve them. That saves time searching for washers, nuts, or drain plugs that otherwise roll into crevices beneath the vehicle.

• Concave bowl traps bolts, clips, and seals in one place
• Raised sides minimize the risk of parts bouncing out during service
• Smooth interior lets you scoop hardware out easily with gloved hands

Is the funnel durable if accidentally run over or stepped on?

Built from heavy-duty flexible plastic, the Lisle 17892 flexes under pressure and returns to its original shape, which helps prevent cracking or permanent deformation. That resilience makes it suitable for busy shop environments where a creeper, tire, or foot might briefly compress the funnel.

• Flexible polymer construction resists permanent collapse
• Impact-tolerant edges reduce chipping and edge failure
• Lightweight yet sturdy for frequent handling and storage

How does the funnel fit into shop workflows?

Its moderate dimensions and simple form let it integrate with floor drains, oil catch containers, or portable reservoirs. When not in use the funnel stacks or hangs flat for compact storage, and its easy-to-clean surface speeds post-service cleanup.

• 22" x 23" size fits beneath most transmission and oil drain points
• Compatible with portable drain pans and funnels for transfer tasks
• Wipe-clean surface reduces contamination and speeds turnover between jobs

Who is this for? This Lisle funnel is made for professional technicians, independent shops, and DIY enthusiasts who need a tougher, more forgiving drain aid than a small pan. If you routinely service transmissions or perform fluid changes on lifts or jacks and want to minimize spills and lost hardware without fragile components, the Lisle 17892 provides a practical, resilient solution sized for most service bays and garages.
