I have used this twice now. Firstlly on my bike - oil filter removed easily with no fuss. Secondly on a jar of marmalade - lid undone and I am a hero! Equally good results.

This is a fabric strap and it S T R E T C H E S. It's cheap and cheerful and I haven't got rid of it as I may be able to use it elsewhere but it was useles for removing the oil filter on my Peugeot 206 2.0 HDi Diesel. I got it on OK but when I tightened, the stretch meant that It didn't get secure and I had no room in the engine bay to keep adjusting the spanner to make it tight.

The quality of this item is OK, but the design has 3 flaws: 1) The strap material stretches under tension, thus once the drive strap is hand tight on the filter as the ratcheting socket wrench (used to drive it) is rotated the torque applied to the filter only increases moderately, most of the rotation being taken up stretching the strap. In the limited space available on my daughter's Fiat Panda 1.1 to rotate the ratchet it was not possible to achieve enough torque to remove the filter. 2) The strap material is slippery and will not grip the filter body. I found that this problem can be overcome by putting an elastic band around the filter first, with the strap then placed over the elastic band. 3) The offset between the strap and ratchet makes it unstable once under tension, with it tending to twist. I subsequently purchased a Draper 68813 Oil Filter Strap Wrench, which proved to be effective and much easier to use. Read full review
