CTA 24mm Low-Profile Oil Filter Socket - CTA-2573 - Oil Filter Socket - Chrome The CTA 24mm Low-Profile Oil Filter Socket, part number CTA-2573, is an essential tool for efficiently removing cartridge-type oil and fuel filter housings. Designed for applications requiring a low profile to access filters in tight spaces, it minimizes downtime and prevents damage to filter caps. Constructed from high-strength chrome vanadium steel, the CTA-2573 ensures durability and reliable performance for professional mechanics and fleet maintenance teams. Many modern heavy-duty and standard vehicles feature cartridge-style oil filters housed under a cap that requires a specific socket size for removal. Limited space around the filter housing can make using standard sockets difficult, leading to damaged caps and increased service times. The CTA-2573's low-profile design addresses this issue, providing easy access and preventing costly mistakes.
