Is upgrading to a magnetic drain plug worth it? If you’re dealing with higher-mileage vehicles, performance engines, or just want added protection, the answer is yes. The drain plugs included in the new line of Rein Magnetic Drain Plugs feature a captive rare earth magnet that actively pulls ferrous wear particles out of the oil before they recirculate through the engine, transmission, or differential. It’s a simple way to reduce wear and gain early insight into internal damage, especially valuable during routine service.
Each plug is engineered for professional use: rolled threads help prevent cross-threading, a flush-tip design avoids debris buildup, and every plug comes with either a crush washer or embedded O-ring for proper sealing. With 14 SKUs covering over 160 million vehicles across domestic, European, and Asian applications, the Rein program of plugs offers broad coverage and upgraded performance. Watch to see how the magnet performs and why it’s a smart upgrade.
