Tachometers/Hour Meters for Gas Powered Engines

Continuously measure the speed and running time of your engine to monitor its performance and detect mechanical issues early. These meters can be programmed based on engine run time to light up for maintenance reminders, such as oil changes, filter replacements, and inspections. Wrap the signal wire four to five times around your spark plug to secure it in place. They’re battery powered, so they will start showing readings as soon as you turn on the engine. It adjusts to nine different engine types for accurate readings.

IP67 Enclosure Rating—They’re rated IP67, so they won’t get damaged from dust and water.

Tips measure the rotational speed of shafts and other spinning objects.

Tips for flat-end surfaces are often used with pulleys and circular saws. They have a concave surface to fit flush over bumps, such as screw heads.

Tips for shafts with center hole are cone-shaped, so they’ll fit the inner diameter of different hole sizes.

Speed wheels measure the length and speed of conveyor belts, bolts of fabric, and material on spools. They have a grooved edge to fit over wire, cable, and cords.
