Type 1 Oil Pressure Relief Valve Screws Pair - Hex Head

Upgrade your aircooled Volkswagen engine with these hex head oil pressure relief spring plugs, designed to replace the original slotted screw-type plugs fitted to Type 1 engine cases. These upgraded plugs make future servicing and removal of the oil pressure relief valves far easier, eliminating the need for oversized screwdrivers or damaged original plugs.

Manufactured with a convenient external hex head design, these plugs allow simple installation and removal using standard hand tools. Ideal for engine rebuilds, routine maintenance or replacing damaged original relief plugs that have become rounded or seized over time.

The oil pressure relief system is a vital part of the aircooled VW lubrication system. The relief valves and springs regulate engine oil pressure and help control oil flow through the oil cooler. Removing the plugs allows access to the relief springs and pistons for inspection, cleaning or replacement during engine servicing.

These hex head versions are particularly popular on performance and regularly serviced engines where easier maintenance access is beneficial.

Supplied as a matched pair to replace both oil pressure relief plugs on the engine case.
