0.2-10mm Digital Wedge Feeler Gauge

Q1: What is a feeler gauge?
A1: A feeler gauge is a precision tool used to measure the gap or clearance between two surfaces. It consists of a set of thin, flat blades of various thicknesses, each marked with its corresponding measurement. These blades can be inserted into the gap to determine its size. Feeler gauges are commonly used in mechanical, automotive, and industrial applications to check the spacing between parts such as engine valves, spark plugs, or machinery components, ensuring they meet specific tolerance requirements.

Q2: Can I use multiple blades at once?
A2: Yes, you can use multiple blades from a feeler gauge set at once. This is often done when the gap you need to measure falls between the thicknesses of two or more individual blades. By stacking multiple blades together, you can achieve the desired thickness and accurately measure the gap.

For example, if the gap is 0.25 mm and there is no single blade that matches this exactly, you could use a 0.15 mm blade and a 0.10 mm blade together to measure the gap. Just make sure the stacked blades fit snugly and fully into the gap for an accurate measurement.

Q3: Can feeler gauges be used for all types of measurements?
A3: Feeler gauges are specifically designed for measuring narrow gaps or clearances between two surfaces, so they are not suitable for all types of measurements. They are ideal for tasks such as checking the clearance in engine parts, machinery, or measuring small gaps in assemblies. However, feeler gauges are not suitable for measuring large gaps, thicknesses of solid materials, or external dimensions like the diameter of a cylinder.

For measurements outside their intended purpose, such as material thickness or larger distances, other tools like calipers, micrometers, or thickness gauges are more appropriate and accurate.

Tips: Can I use digital feeler gauge in different orientations?
