OilSafe® - Fluid Transfer Containers

Why Oil Funnels Are Outdated in Motorsports: Upgrade to OilSafe Transfer Containers

The Hidden Contaminant Problem in Racing

In high-performance motorsports, every component of a race car must function at peak efficiency. However, one often-overlooked factor is fluid contamination, which can silently degrade performance and lead to unexpected failures. Traditional oil funnels—still commonly used for fluid transfers—are nearly impossible to keep clean, introducing dirt, dust, and other contaminants into critical systems like the engine, transmission, differential, brake system, and cooling system.

According to research from the Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers (STLE) and the National Research Council of Canada, up to 80% of machinery failures are linked to contamination in lubricants. In motorsports, this means that many “sudden” mechanical issues during a race could be traced back to something as simple as dirty oil transfers.

The Solution: OilSafe Transfer Containers

Originally designed for ultra-clean environments like aerospace, food processing, and high-precision manufacturing, OilSafe Transfer Containers provide an airtight, contamination-free way to handle fluids. By bringing this industrial-level reliability to racing, teams can ensure fluid purity, reduce mechanical failures, and ultimately improve performance while minimizing pit stops.

Why Teams Should Ditch Funnels and cheap plastic pumps for OilSafe?

✅ Sealed & Contamination-Free – Unlike open funnels, OilSafe containers fully enclose fluids, preventing dust, dirt, and debris from entering vital components.
✅ Mess-Free & Easy to Use – No more spills or wasted fluid. OilSafe containers make filling quick, clean, and efficient.
✅ Color-Coded for Precision – Available in 10 distinct colors, these containers eliminate the risk of fluid mix-ups (e.g., accidentally using gear oil in place of brake fluid). Assign each fluid type a dedicated color for 100% accuracy.
✅ Industrial-Grade Durability – Designed for extreme conditions, these containers hold up under the rigorous demands of racing.
✅ Improves Vehicle Longevity & Reliability – With cleaner fluids, race cars experience less wear, meaning fewer unexpected failures and better overall performance on the track.
