Product Number: 51729
Setting valve tappets accurately demands a gauge with sufficient reach and the right blade geometry to work within the confined clearances found in motorcycle, mower, car and van engines. The Draper 51729 angled tappet feeler gauge addresses this directly: its 24 dual-marked blades are offset so that the working end can access restricted areas of the engine that a straight gauge would not reach. Each blade measures 95mm in length and is hardened and polished to maintain dimensional accuracy throughout its working life. Both the metric and imperial measurements are marked on every blade, so there is no need to swap between gauges mid-task. The full metric range runs from 0.203mm to 0.660mm across 12 blades (0.203, 0.254, 0.305, 0.330, 0.356, 0.381, 0.406, 0.457, 0.483, 0.508, 0.635 and 0.660mm), while the corresponding imperial range runs from 0.008" to 0.026" across 12 blades (0.008, 0.010, 0.012, 0.013, 0.014, 0.015, 0.016, 0.018, 0.019, 0.020, 0.025 and 0.026"). All blades fold neatly into a polished steel case secured by a thumbscrew, keeping them protected and organised between uses. Each blade is individually marked with its size for quick selection at the bench. The gauge is display packed and suitable for professional workshop and owner-operator use across a wide range of small and large engines.
Combination gauge for the setting of valve tappets on motorcycles, mowers, cars, vans, etc. The dual marked blades are 95mm long and offset to give improved access to the engine and are hardened and polished for long accurate life. Each blade is marked with its size and folds into a polished steel case with thumbscrew.
