earthmoving machinery or genset. The
clamping range is from 25 mm (one inch)
up to 80 mm (3 1/8 inch) and all diameters
in between. The clamping action is done
by spring-loaded, glass-reinforced-nylon
‘pliers’ that expand like circlip pliers
and positively locate the funnel in the
opening. An adjustable clamping ring on
the base is threaded, so that the funnel
can be screwed lightly in place, making
the clamping pliers and the funnel a tight
assembly.


With the funnel locked in place it’s much
easier to pour fluid accurately and without
risk of destabilising it. Pouring control is
two-handed. A clear, see-through lower
section allows easy monitoring of fluid flow,
helping avoid over-filling when pouring
viscous liquids. Inside the neck is a strainer


to stop bits of bottle lid, fag ends and
chewie getting where they shouldn’t. The
‘handle’ that lets you remove the strainer
is pointed, so it acts as a foil punch to slit
container security seals. The polypropylene
and polycarbonate components in the
funnel material make it highly durable, easily
cleaned and suitable for all viscosities of oil,
as well as coolant, detergents, diesel and
petrol.

The Lubemate Universal Clamping Funnel
(L-UCFL) and the other two funnels carry
the normal Lubemate 12-month warranty
and are available from a variety of retail and
online outlets.
