Overview

Every A&P knows the importance of cutting every single oil filter open after an oil change. The problem up to now was oil filters were difficult to open and the tools to open them were expensive. This is no longer the case with the Airwolf AFC-470 oil filter cutter. The AFC-470 is the easiest and quickest way to determine the current health of the engine.

The Airwolf AFC-470 oil filter cutter is constructed out of a solid 6" billet of super strong 6061-T6 aluminum, hard anodized to resist scratches and wear. Stainless steel rollers allow the oil filter to spin effortlessly during cutting. And finally, our specially designed razor sharp cutter wheel hardened to 60 Rockwell, will make quick work of opening any oil filter. This filter is designed to last a lifetime. Fits new style oil filters

Excellent product, ready for work right out of the box. Very well made and engineered. Superior to the Tempest product.

Works great. I had zero need for a vise held the filter in one hand and turned the cutter with the other. Taking small bites with the cutter wheel yields stellar results. Highly recommend.

This oil filter or equivalent is essential for examining aircraft oil filters for evidence of engine wear.
