00:00So, here's something I didn't think about for the first 10 years I owned a car, every time you
00:04change your oil, there's metal in there. Tiny shavings from your engine grinding away at itself,
00:10floating around in that black sludge. A magnetic drain plug catches all of it before it can do
00:15more damage and honestly, for what these cost, it's the cheapest insurance you'll ever buy.
00:20I went digging through the best deals out there, and these are the top 5 magnetic oil drain plugs
00:25worth your money right now. Starting off with the premium pick, this M12x1.25 and M14x1.5
00:33magnetic drain plug made from aviation-grade aluminum. Yeah, it's the pricey one at $32.16,
00:39but you're paying for real aerospace aluminum and a seriously strong neodymium magnet that grabs
00:44everything, not just the big chunks. Nearly 5,000 of these have sold with a 4.7 rating,
00:50which tells you people aren't just buying it, they're happy after they install it.
00:54If you've got a car you actually care about, a build you've put money into,
00:58this is the one you buy once and forget about. Now if you want something that'll outlive the car
01:04itself, take a look at this stainless steel option. It comes in M12x1.25, M14x1.5, M16x1.5,
01:13and M18x1.5, so pretty much whatever you're driving, there's a fit. It's the most expensive on
01:19the list at $66.20, no way around that, but it's sitting at a perfect 5-star rating across nearly
01:255,000 sales, and that's genuinely rare. Stainless means no corrosion, no galling in the oil pan threads,
01:32no stripped bowl 3 years down the line. It's a buy-it-for-life kind of part.
01:38Okay, but here's the one that made me raise my eyebrows.
01:41This VR magnetic drain plug is $2.59.
01:46$2.59. It comes in M12x1.5, M12x1.25, and M14x1.5, plus a whole bunch of colors if you
01:55want a
01:56little pop of red or blue down there. Over 4,900 sold and a 4.8 rating, so this isn't
02:02some junk that
02:03falls apart. If you're skeptical about whether a magnetic plug is worth it, this is how you find
02:08out for the price of a coffee. Grab 2-1 for each car.
02:13This next one is the sweet spot for most people. It's a magnetic engine oil pan drain plug-in blue
02:19or red anodized finish, available in M12x1.25, M14x1.5, and M20x1.5, and it's $5.61.
02:29What sells me here is the perfect 5-star rating, over 4,000 people bought it and nobody's complaining.
02:36The anodized coating looks sharp if you're the type who peeks under the car,
02:39and the magnet does exactly what it's supposed to. Cheap enough to not think about,
02:44good enough that you won't need to replace it. And rounding it out, this universal stainless
02:49steel drain plug that covers basically every thread size you could need M8, M12, M14, M16,
02:56in both 1.25 and 1.5 pitch. At $4.25 with a 4.8 rating and almost 4,000
03:04sold, it's a fantastic
03:05option if you're wrenching on multiple vehicles or you're just not 100% sure what size your car
03:10takes. Stainless construction at this price is a genuinely good deal, and the dress-up finish is a
03:15nice bonus. Solid, no-nonsense pick. All five of these are linked down in the description,
03:22so go check the current prices, they move around a lot. If this saved you some scrolling,
