Every time you use a funnel or generic oil jug, you're introducing particles, debris, moisture and contaminants into your hydraulic, gear, and engine systems. The cost? Premature wear, system failures, 

and thousands in repairs.

Why Funnels Are Destroying Your Equipment & Engines

Professional racing teams and industrial facilities have banned funnels for good reason. 

Here's what happens every time you use one:

 

The Real Cost:

 

Premature engine rebuilds:                 $5,000 - $15,000

Hydraulic system failures:                   $2,000 - $8,000

Transmission replacements:               $3,000 - $6,000

 

Total potential damage:  $10,000 - $29,000

Cross-Contamination Is Inevitable

Funnels are open, exposed, and impossible to clean properly. Dust, metal shavings, coolant residue, or old oil remain trapped in crevices. Using the same funnel across different fluids guarantees contamination that can degrade additive performance or trigger chemical reactions.

SYSTEM FAILURE

Introduces Safety Hazards

Oil spills create slip hazards and fire risks near electronics or hot parts. Funnels often leak, tip, splash, or overflow—especially in fast-paced environments or awkward spaces. It's a liability, not a tool.

 

SAFETY RISK

Material Incompatibility Risks

Most consumer funnels use low-grade plastic or reactive metals that degrade when exposed to synthetic oils, gear lubes, or high-detergent fluids. This causes leaching, discoloration, and chemical breakdown of your expensive lubricants.

 

LUBRICANT DEGRADATION 

Chemical Exposure Risks

Used oils contain heavy metals, combustion byproducts, and carcinogenic PAHs (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons). Funnels increase contact risk through spills and splash-back, putting your health at risk.

 

HEALTH HAZARD

Zero Flow Control or Precision

Funnels rely on gravity and guesswork with no pressure control, flow rate management, or volume measurement. This leads to overfills, spills, and costly cleanup. Inconsistent oil levels impact engine wear and thermal performance.
