BLACKROBOT 36mm Low-Profile Oil Filter Socket, 3/8-Inch Drive, 6-Point
Product description
For an oil change that calls for a 36 mm filter cap, the BLACKROBOT socket gives you a dedicated tool for removal and installation. Its low-profile shape is designed to reach filter caps in confined spaces, including areas around oil and fuel filter covers.
A 6-point profile grips the filter cap, while the 3/8-inch drive connects with a matching hand tool. The socket is made from heat-treated forged chrome vanadium steel and has a black finish.
If your work centres on one 36 mm cap, a dedicated socket keeps the setup simple. For servicing across several filter-cap sizes, a multi-size set may better suit the task.
Technical overview
This socket is built for oil filter cap removal and installation. The compact, low-profile form supports access where surrounding components leave limited room to work. Match the 36 mm size to your filter cap and use a compatible 3/8-inch drive tool. It is intended for use with non-impact tools.

Buyers describe the socket as working well for oil-filter tasks and value the fit for their specific applications. They also note its sturdy feel. These are user impressions, so checking the cap size against your vehicle remains the practical way to select the right socket.
Everyday use
During an oil change, place the correctly sized socket over the filter cap and connect it to a 3/8-inch drive tool to remove or install the cap. The 6-point design is intended to grip the cap securely, and the low-profile build helps when access is tight. For a vehicle-specific job, confirm that the filter cap calls for a 36 mm socket before starting.
This is a focused choice for a toolbox where a 36 mm oil-filter socket is the size needed. Its compact format is useful for reaching a cap without bringing a larger, multi-size set to a single-size task. The forged chrome vanadium steel construction and black coating make it a purpose-built addition to an oil-change tool kit.
