Mishimoto Magnetic Oil Drain Sump Plug – MINI R50 R52 R53 R55 R56 F56

Magnetic Protection | 6061 Aluminium | Performance Engine Protection

Product Description

The Mishimoto Magnetic Oil Drain Plug is a simple but effective upgrade designed to help protect your MINI engine by capturing fine metallic particles circulating within the engine oil.

Manufactured from 6061 aluminium and fitted with a powerful neodymium magnet, the magnetic tip attracts ferrous metal debris that may otherwise continue circulating through the lubrication system.

Small amounts of metallic debris can naturally occur through normal engine wear, particularly on high-mileage, modified, track or competition vehicles. The magnetic drain plug provides an additional opportunity to capture this material and allows it to be inspected during routine oil changes.

Available in several thread sizes to suit different generations and engine applications of MINI.
