PanAm Clean-Funnel

PanAm Clean-Funnel

A good funnel is a must have in any workshop when it’s time for an oil change or a refill. The annoying part of these jobs was to stow away the oil dripping funnel into a dark corner where you would find it a few months later contaminated inside-outside with dust, bugs and other debris. The PanAm funnel puts an end to this problem because it features screw-on caps at the top and bottom which can be removed for action and which keep the inside of your funnel perfectly clean during storage. The flexible spout makes it more versatile as it allows to direct the funnel tip in tight spots.
