Oil Drain Adapter

This allows a container to be held under a 0.5" diameter drain line. Works great for draining tail rotor gearboxes.

*Note, if you would like this tool for a different outside diameter drain tube, please let me know in the comment section.

Print upside down. You may have to use supports for the indent in the side. Once printed, stick a long cotter key through hole, cut to size and bend cotter key flush with indent. The cotter key eye hole, allows a hook to be placed into it.

Stick a 0.5" outside diameter drain tube through the center hole.*Note, there are grooves/ridges in the center hole that must be placed in the correct direction to help prevent tool from sliding off the hose.
