Expert By Facom Precision Measuring tools are made for workshop and maintenance tasks where accuracy matters. The selection covers feeler gauges and strips for checking small gaps and clearances, and vernier callipers for taking precise internal, external and depth measurements.

Whether you are setting valve clearances, checking component wear or confirming machined dimensions, these tools help you work to the tolerances the job demands. They suit vehicle technicians, mechanical engineers, maintenance teams and serious DIY mechanics.

Expert By Facom Precision Measuring Features and Benefits

• Graduated feeler blades and strips: Accurate thickness steps let you measure gaps with confidence, so settings such as valve and contact clearances are right first time.
• Vernier scale readings: Fine graduations allow measurements to a fraction of a millimetre, helping you spot wear and check fits without guesswork.
• Multi-function jaws: Vernier callipers measure outside diameters, inside bores and depths with one tool, which cuts down the kit you need to carry.
• Durable metal construction: Hard-wearing materials stand up to busy workshop use and keep their accuracy over time.
• Clear, legible markings: Easy-to-read scales reduce reading errors and speed up repeat checks.

Feeler Gauges & Strips

Used to measure narrow gaps and set clearances accurately. They are a staple for engine work, including tappet and valve adjustment, as well as general machinery setup and maintenance.

Vernier Callipers

Ideal for checking shaft and bore sizes, material thickness and depths. They are useful in workshops, fabrication, machining and inspection tasks where repeatable accuracy is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose between feeler gauges and vernier callipers?

Choose feeler gauges when you need to measure or set a small gap between two surfaces, such as valve clearances. Choose vernier callipers when you need to measure the size of a part, including outside diameter, internal bore or depth. Many workshops keep both for full coverage.

How should I use and look after precision measuring tools?

Clean the tool and the surface before measuring, and apply light, even pressure so you do not distort the reading. With feeler blades, avoid forcing them into a gap or bending them. Wipe the tools after use, keep them dry and store them in a protective case or pouch to maintain accuracy.
