Oil Catch Can HPS 860-017 Baffled Billet Aluminum 5oz Capacity

Description

Product Overview

The HPS 860-017 oil catch can is engineered for demanding industrial applications where reliability and cleanliness are paramount. Constructed from high‑grade billet aluminum, the catch can features a baffled interior that maximizes oil‑air separation, allowing up to 5 oz of fluid to be safely collected before it can reach sensitive engine components. Anodized dipstick provides a corrosion‑resistant, easy‑to‑read gauge for fluid level checks, while the robust 14 mm hex base enables rapid draining with a standard wrench or socket. The unit ships with -6 AN hoses and push‑on fittings, delivering a bolt‑on installation that eliminates leaks and reduces downtime. Compact dimensions (16.3 × 10.35 × 6.77 in) and a modest weight of 4.84 lb make it suitable for a wide range of machinery, from heavy‑duty generators to precision‑engineered tools.

Usage

Designed for industrial hardware environments, this oil catch can excels in applications where oil blow‑by can compromise performance or cause costly maintenance. Install the unit on any system with a compatible intake manifold to protect valves, pistons, and sensors from oil contamination. The included -6 AN hoses provide a secure, leak‑free connection to standard fittings, making the catch can ideal for retrofits and new builds alike. Whether used in stationary power generators, mobile equipment, or high‑performance compressors, the HPS 860‑017 ensures that oil is captured before it can enter the combustion chamber, extending component life and maintaining optimal efficiency. Its durable aluminum construction tolerates temperature extremes and harsh operating conditions, delivering consistent performance in workshops, factories, and field service settings.
