Color-Coded Feeler Gauge Sets

With leaves that are color coded based on thickness, you can read your measurements at a glance. These gauge sets are used to check gaps, alignment, and narrow slots. Gauge leaves are riveted together in a fan design to keep the set complete; the set folds up for portability. Sets are nonmagnetic, nonmarring, noncorrosive, nonsparking, and resistant to oil.

Color-Coded Feeler Gauges

Since each thickness is a different color, there’s no need to read the feeler gauge to tell your measurement. They are used to check gaps, alignment, and narrow slots. Gauges are nonmagnetic, nonmarring, noncorrosive, nonsparking, and resistant to oil.

Plastic Clearance Gauges

Step 1: Lay Strip Flat

Step 2: Compress Components

Step 3: Match Flattened Strip to Reading Card

Squish these tiny plastic strips between two components to measure the clearance between them. Once compressed, match the widest part of the flattened strip to the markings on the reading card. Each marking on the card corresponds to a different clearance measurement. For large bearings and wide surfaces, use two or more strips to check for inconsistency.

Originally designed to check clearances in automotive bearings, these strips also work with cylinder heads, flanges, and other fitted parts. Although generally less precise than calipers and hole gauges, they take clearance measurements in spots that can't be reached after the part is assembled.
