Feeler Blades

Feeler blades are precision measuring tools used to check the gap between two objects. They are typically made of metal or plastic and have a sharp edge on one end. Feeler blades are available in a variety of thicknesses, so they can be used to measure a variety of gaps.

Feeler blades are used in a variety of applications, including automotive, industrial, and home repair. In the automotive industry, feeler blades are used to measure the clearance between the spark plugs and the valves. They are also used to measure the clearance between the piston rings and the cylinder walls.

In the industrial industry, feeler blades are used to measure the clearance between moving parts. They are also used to measure the thickness of materials.

In the home repair industry, feeler blades are used to measure the clearance between doors and windows. They are also used to measure the thickness of wood and other materials.

Types of Feeler Blades

There are a variety of different types of feeler blades available, each with its own specific purpose.

  • Standard feeler blades are the most common type of feeler blade. They are typically made of metal and have a sharp edge on one end. Standard feeler blades are available in a variety of thicknesses, from 0.001 inch to 0.010 inch.
  • Flexible feeler blades are made of a flexible material, such as plastic or rubber. They are used to measure gaps that are too small for standard feeler blades.
  • Magnetic feeler blades are made of metal and have a magnet on one end. They are used to measure gaps in magnetic materials.
  • Non-magnetic feeler blades are made of a non-magnetic material, such as plastic or fiberglass. They are used to measure gaps in non-magnetic materials.

How to Use Feeler Blades

To use a feeler blade, first select the blade that is the same thickness as the gap you are trying to measure. Then, insert the blade into the gap. If the blade fits snugly, the gap is the correct size. If the blade is too loose, the gap is too large. If the blade is too tight, the gap is too small.

Feeler blades are an essential tool for any mechanic or technician. They are easy to use and can be used to measure a variety of gaps.
