ubemate has released three different

funnel models to suit various

requirements. If you’ve had to strain

crook fuel going into your tank or juggle an

oil bottle over an engine or gearbox filler hole

you’ll appreciate their innovations.

Lubemate’s Big Orange Funnel solves the

problem of overflow accidents, especially

when dispensing high-viscosity oils or filling

fuel tanks from fast-flow hoses. Small-

capacity funnels just aren’t up to the job,

lacking reserve capacity to handle the depth

of sticky or swirling fluids. The Big Orange

Funnel has a capacity of four litres, a depth

of 170 mm and a mouth opening of 260

mm x 170 mm. Construction is rugged

polyethylene, making it suitable for outdoor

use in varying temperatures, while a hole in

the upper corner allows the funnel to be hung

for drying and storage. Alternatively, it can

stow upside-down on top of most five-litre oil

bottles.

Lubemate’s new Fuel Filter Funnel is made of

lightweight polypropylene and is a must-have

for anyone dispensing diesel, petrol, heating

oil or kerosene from tanks or containers

that might contain grit, algae or water

condensate. Fuel stored in jerry cans, drums

and above-ground fuel tanks is particularly

vulnerable to contamination. Water vapour

above the fuel level in such containers

condenses as the nighttime temperature

drops and the resulting water droplets sink

below the fuel level to the bottom of the
