STARRETT 66 50314 Thickness Gage 26 Straight Leaves

Starrett 66 thickness / feeler gauge is used to measure gap widths by inserting the gauge into a gap and the thickness of materials such as metal, plastic, paper and more. This data aids in quality control, ensuring compliance with specifications and standards and helps identify defects or variations in material thickness. This Starrett feeler gauge is ideal for the automotive, aerospace and construction industries where precise material thickness is essential for safety, durability and performance.

Working Mechanism:

• The selected feeler blade is inserted into the gap or placed against the material whose thickness needs to be measured. The blade is carefully positioned to ensure it fits snugly within the gap or contacts the material's surface.
• The gauge is equipped with a locking device. Once the feeler blade is correctly positioned, the user engages the locking mechanism to hold the blade firmly in place. This prevents any accidental movement during the measurement, ensuring accuracy.
• With the feeler blade securely in position, the user can read the measurement directly from the marked value on the blade. The markings on the blade indicate its thickness in inches.

Features:

• This Starrett feeler gauge has 26 steel feeler blades ranging from 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch in width, facilitating precise gap measurements.
• This thickness gauge offers a unique locking device that securely holds the chosen blade in position, preventing any accidental adjustments during measurements.
• It is equipped with laser-etched inch markings on each blade for quick and easy identification, enhancing efficiency and reducing measurement errors.
• This 66 feeler gauge has a micro-adjustment mechanism, allowing for ultra-precise gap measurements, even in tight spaces.
