Description
Overview:
These Draper Tools feeler gauges are a compact set of precision steel blades for checking and setting clearances in engines, transmissions, pumps, and general machinery. The set covers 0.0015 to 0.025 inches (0.038 to 0.635 mm), allowing accurate measurement of very fine gaps where correct tolerances are critical. Each blade is made from quality steel for dependable accuracy and long service life in workshop and site conditions. The blades are removable, so you can select, use, and clean them individually, and combine blades where a particular thickness is required. Suitable for automotive work such as valve/tappet clearances and spark plug gaps, as well as small plant and garden machinery including lawn mowers and generators. Manufacturer Part Number: 36174. Brand: Draper.
