One step in every oil change.
Done consistently.

O-ring lubrication is a small step in every oil change — but skipping it or doing it inconsistently can lead to poor seals or premature wear. The OPS Tray is built to make that step faster, cleaner, and more repeatable across every service.

What It Is

What is OPS™?

OPS™ (O-Ring Prep System®) is a magnetic tray with a replaceable oil-lubricated pad — built to give you a clean, controlled surface for prepping oil filter O-rings before installation.

No finger-dipping. No mess on the bench. One controlled step before every install.

Why It Matters

The step most people rush.

O-ring prep is one of the most inconsistent steps in an oil change. Finger-dipping oil, wiping with dirty rags, or skipping lubrication entirely — it all leads to the same thing: uneven coverage, mess, and a less reliable seal.

Supports a cleaner seal

Proper O-ring lubrication helps support a cleaner seal and more consistent installation. Skipping it — or doing it halfway — may contribute to leaks, difficult removal, or double-gasket issues down the line.

Repeatable process

OPS gives you a repeatable process. Same surface. Same method. Clean result.

Less mess, more consistency

No finger-dipping. No dirty rags. A dedicated, controlled surface that keeps the prep step clean and contained every time.

The Product

Not just a tool.
A better process.

Most shops don't have a dedicated step for O-ring prep. OPS changes that. It's designed around real service workflow — a simple way to standardize a commonly rushed step.

  • Magnetic Base Locks to any steel surface — stays in place on lift columns, toolboxes, and fender covers.
  • Replaceable Prep Pad Velcro-anchored. Swap it when it's worn. Available in blue or black.
  • Powder-Coated Steel Tray Durable, cleanable, built to handle daily shop use.
  • Controlled Application Helps support more even oil distribution vs. hand-lube methods — less mess, more consistency.
  • Compact Design Fits in a drawer, mounts on a cart, or sits on the bench. Stays out of the way until you need it.
