- Categories: News & Announcements
Any mechanic's solution for mess-free drainage and storage of motor oil waste.
Drain your vehicle’s oil or antifreeze without the mess of other drain pans when using Groz 15 Quart Drain Pan. Perfect for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts, this Drain Pan provides a cleaner drain for vehicles with larger engine capacities or multiple vehicles without needing multiple, smaller capacity drain pans.
What makes the Groz 15 Quart Drain Pan so great?
This drain pan has a large 8” opening to catch the oil with a built-in filter to prevent small parts such as the screw cap from falling into the oil. Having this filter removes the need for the user to be fishing through hot oil for anything that may have fallen in. When the drain pan is full, the user simply covers the opening with a large gasketed orange cap, keeping the fluid securely inside without anything spilling during the movement of the pan.
This pan has a handle to easily carry and transport from one place to another. Paired with the handle, this pan has wheels at the bottom to keep steady when pouring out the fluid from the vent at the top of pan. The vent makes disposing the fluid out of the pan simple, as the smaller opening provides a thinner but targeted stream to prevent splashes during disposal.
This drain pan is perfect for larger, heavy-duty vehicles that need multiple oil changes. It is made from polyethylene, a durable but lightweight synthetic resin that enables this pan to be used multiple times while still maintaining its structural integrity and functionality to securely hold the used oil or antifreeze.
This product is great for DIY who likes to change their own oil and must take a trip to a recycling center to dispose of the waste oil. This oil drain pan would work great for those owners of everything from a high-performance sport car down to subcompact cars.
Vehicles that require around 15 quarts of oil during an oil change are typically high-performance sports cars or heavy-duty trucks with large engines. These vehicles have larger engines that require more oil to ensure proper lubrication and cooling.
What kind of vehicles need close to 15 quarts of oil per change?
Here are some examples:
-
High-Performance Sports Cars
- Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
- Dodge Viper

Don’t work with vehicles that use 15 quarts? This oil pan would allow you to store oil between oil changes, depending on the vehicle's oil capacity. The leakproof lid feature would allow more than one oil change before a mess free trip to the recycling center is needed.
For vehicles that are mid to light duty, the amount of oil needed typically ranges from 6-8 quarts of oil per change, enabling the user to get two oil changes out of this drain pan.
