Features:
If you're serious about protecting your Duramax engine, swapping out that basic factory drain plug is an easy upgrade that can make a real difference. The PPE 12mm Billet Hardened Stainless Steel Magnetic Oil Drain Plug is built to do more than just hold oil in, it actually works to keep your engine healthier every time you drive. It features a strong Neodymium magnet that grabs hold of ferrous metal particles floating around in the oil, stopping them before they can circulate and cause wear. That means cleaner oil, less friction, and a better chance your engine keeps running strong for the long haul. It installs easily as a direct replacement for the stock plug, so you're not reinventing the wheel here, just making it better. With the added copper washer, you also get a tight, leak-free seal that holds up over time. Whether you're maintaining your daily driver or upgrading a workhorse, this little part delivers a big payoff in protection.
Built for 2001–2016 GM Silverado and Sierra HD models with the 6.6L Duramax, this PPE drain plug is designed with both fitment and function in mind. The billet hardened stainless steel body ensures maximum durability and corrosion resistance, especially in high-heat or high-mileage applications. At the core of its performance is a Neodymium magnet that actively captures metal shavings and particles, preventing premature wear in critical engine components. The plug also includes a safety wire provision for added security during high-vibration use, along with a copper crush washer that helps ensure a tight and consistent seal every time you reinstall it. With a torque spec of 30-35 lb-ft, installation is simple and doesn’t require any guesswork. It's a smart upgrade over the OEM plug, which lacks any magnetic capability and allows contaminants to recirculate through the oil. Whether you're doing your own maintenance or looking for long-term protection, this plug is engineered to deliver more than just peace of mind.
