Feeler Gauge Set Gimex MWSB 0.1–2.0 mm, 20 blades, Length 200 mm

The Gimex MWSB feeler gauge set 0.1–2.0 mm comprises 20 individual blades with a length of 200 mm, designed for precise measurement of gaps and clearances in mechanical, automotive and assembly work. Each blade represents a specific thickness step between 0.1 mm and 2.0 mm, enabling careful calibration, adjustment and inspection where consistent and repeatable gap measurement is required. The long blade length facilitates access to recessed joints and multi-point checks along seams or bearing surfaces.

Advantages

The set provides a wide thickness range in fine increments to cover delicate adjustments and larger clearances with a single kit. Blades of 200 mm length improve reach and stability during measurement, reducing the need for improvised extensions. The blades are individually labelled for quick identification, allowing efficient selection and combination for intermediate thicknesses. The construction supports flat, parallel contact for accurate readings in engine, gearbox, brake and assembly tasks.

Suitable for

• Measuring valve clearances and tappet gaps in automotive engines
• Checking bearing and shaft end-play in mechanical assemblies
• Setting gasket or shim thickness during maintenance and repairs
• Inspecting seam clearances and joint gaps in fabrication and assembly

Key specifications

• Thickness range: 0.1 mm to 2.0 mm in incremental steps
• Number of blades: 20
• Blade length: 200 mm
• Material: precision-ground metal blades suitable for tactile gap measurement
• Marking: individual thickness markings on each blade for quick identification

How to use

Select the blade or combination of blades matching the nominal gap to be measured. Insert the blade between the mating surfaces and slide gently to assess fit; a correct clearance typically produces a light drag without excessive play. For tighter tolerances, use thinner blades or combine multiple blades to reach the target thickness. When measuring in confined or recessed areas, align the full length of the blade for stable contact and read markings near the exposed end.

Usage recommendations

Keep blades clean and dry after use to maintain precise thickness and prevent corrosion. Store the set in its protective holder to avoid bending or nicking edges. Avoid using excessive force when inserting blades to prevent damage to both the gauge and the measured parts. For measurements requiring traceable accuracy, verify blade condition and calibration against a reference standard before critical inspections.
