Sump plugs added to aftermarket products
19 October 2017
Blue Diamond has added sump plugs to its arsenal of automotive aftermarket products.

Sump plugs, or oil drain plugs as they’re sometimes known, take the form of a bolt at the bottom of the sump pan which enables oil to be drained from a motor vehicle engine during oil change.
Available off the shelf to suit most vehicle specifications, Blue Diamond can provide sump plugs in all thread sizes from M10 to M38, as well as Imperial sizes. Most of the plugs are made in steel and can be accurately assessed for hardness rating. Finishes include black/grey phosphate, geomet, zinc and clear passivate, black oxide and many more.
Sump plugs can incorporate special features such as internal O-rings, captive washers and rubber overmoulds for improved sealing where required.
Blue Diamond sump plugs are suitable for multiple vehicle interchanges from a wide selection of manufacturers including, but not limited to, BMW, Chrysler, Ford, GM, Honda, Kia, Land Rover, Mazda, Mercedes, Opel, Peugeot, Subaru, Suzuki, Toyota and VW.
