Scepter 7.3 Qt Oil Drain Pan with Lid, Gasketed Pour Spout & Filter Screen — HDPE, Spill‑Resistant

The Scepter 7.3‑quart Oil Drain Pan is a durable, spill‑resistant oil catch pan with a screw‑on lid, removable filter screen, and gasketed pour spout for cleaner oil changes and safe transport.

Swap messy puddles for controlled, contained draining: this compact oil drain pan is molded from high‑density polyethylene to resist chemicals, dents, and corrosion while capturing engine oil, transmission fluid, antifreeze, and hydraulic fluids. Its wide lidded opening and integrated hand grips let you position, drain, carry, and seal used fluids with far less mess than open trays. Built‑in features such as a removable plug screen and tethered gasket cap make filter draining and disposal more organized and reduce the chance of spills during transport to recycling.

How does the lidded opening reduce spills and simplify transport?

The pan’s large mouth gives a direct target for draining under a vehicle, then the threaded lid screws on to lock fluids in place for spill‑free carrying. Molded hand grips at each side help stabilize the pan when moving it to a recycling container or storage area.

• 7.3‑quart capacity for standard oil changes
• Screw‑on lid secures liquids during transport
• Molded hand grips for steady carrying and pouring
• Compact footprint fits under most passenger vehicles

What keeps drain plugs and oil filters from ending up in the waste stream?

A removable drain filter and plug screen catch small parts and provide a place for oil filters to slowly drain before disposal. This arrangement reduces debris in the collected fluid and makes cleanup and recycling easier and more responsible.

• Removable screen traps drain plugs and debris
• Dedicated area to drain oil filters safely
• Screen lifts out for quick cleaning and inspection

How does the pour spout prevent leaks when emptying the pan?

The molded drain spout includes a gasketed cap that’s tethered to the pan so you won’t misplace it while draining. The gasketed closure provides a tighter seal than a simple snap cap, limiting drips and making transfers to recycling jugs cleaner.

• Gasketed cap for a secure, drip‑resistant seal
• Tether prevents cap loss during servicing
• Angled spout designed for controlled pouring into containers

Will this pan hold up to repeated shop use and exposure to chemicals?

Yes — the Scepter pan is molded from heavy‑duty high‑density polyethylene that resists common automotive chemicals and solvents and won’t rust, dent, or corrode. Its sturdy construction helps it resist warping under normal use and makes it suitable for both DIYers and professional garages.

• High‑density polyethylene resists solvents and oils
• Rigid, dent‑resistant design for repeated use
• Compact dimensions: 12" × 12‑3/4" × 5‑1/2" for easy storage
