Magnetic drain bolts?

Ive heard recently of people using magnetic drain bolts for the oil and transmission. Can someone explain why these are better or what the use of magnetic ones are for? Thanks. smile.gif

if you have any metal in the oil

the drain bolt will hold it instead of allowing it to circulate the oil system

really good for seeing how your engine is wearing also
