Carlyle Double Ended Drain Plug Key 10-12mm (CDPK1012M)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CDPK1012M

The Carlyle CDPK1012M is a double-ended drain plug key with 10mm and 12mm ends, for the recessed drain and filler plugs found on certain Ford and Lancia sumps and gearboxes. One end takes a 19mm socket or spanner, so you can get real leverage on a plug that has not been moved in years.

Good to know

• How do I know which end I need? Clean the plug recess and try each end; the right one drops in fully with no rock, and a loose fit will round off the corners of the recess.
• How do I shift a stubborn plug? Seat the key fully, then drive it with a 19mm socket or spanner on the drive end with a slow, steady pull rather than hammering it.
• What should I do when refitting? Fit a new sealing washer if the plug uses one, and tighten to the figure in the workshop manual; overtightening can strip the thread in the sump or gearbox casing.

Which one?

For 8mm and 10mm square plugs on Citroen, Peugeot, Renault and some Volvo models use the CDPK810M; for several sizes in one kit see the Carlyle 6 Piece Drain Key Set Double End (CUDPKS).
