Feeler Gauge Tape S 0.04 mm, 5 m × 12.7 mm by TECWERK

Feeler Gauge Tape S 0.04 mm, 5 m × 12.7 mm serves as a flexible precision strip for alignment, tolerance measurement and gap testing in machine construction and workshop settings

• Hardened spring steel construction
• Burr-free edges for safe handling
• 5 m length, 12.7 mm working width

Accurate thin-gap measurement for machine alignment

The 0.04 mm thickness enables measurement and verification of very small gaps where fine tolerance control is essential. Made from hardened spring steel, the strip resists permanent bending, which maintains measurement consistency during repeated use. In practical terms, the thin profile functions as an easily inserted reference under machine components, supporting rapid checks of parallelism and clearance without complex set-ups. The combination of material and geometry reduces the need for frequent re-measurement, improving process efficiency.

Robust construction and workshop longevity

Hardened spring steel offers a balance of flexibility and strength: it bends where required but returns to its original shape, ensuring repeatable readings over time. The burr-free edges minimise the risk of scoring delicate surfaces during insertion and aid safer handling in busy work environments. Supplied in a plastic case, the strip is protected in storage and transport, which prolongs service life and keeps the working edge clean and ready for use.

Practical format that speeds routine tasks

With a length of 5 m and a working width of 12.7 mm, the tape provides extensive reach for large assemblies while remaining narrow enough for confined gaps. The continuous band format permits cutting to length or using sections as single feeler strips, offering flexibility that standard discrete feeler sets cannot. For tolerance measurement and gap testing, the format serves both as an underlay and as a direct feeler, reducing tool changes and streamlining inspection workflows.

Supply reliability and industrial suitability

The product is intended for professional workshops and machine shops where reliable, repeatable checks are required. Availability through Metav ensures a consistent supply backed by a European quality filter based in Emmerich, supported by decades of distribution experience. The practical build and clear specification help integrate the strip into maintenance schedules and alignment procedures, supporting productivity and reducing unplanned downtime.

FAQ

What precision can be expected from this feeler tape?
The feeler gauge tape delivers a nominal thickness of 0.04 mm, with the hardened spring steel construction ensuring stable dimensional behaviour during standard workshop use.

Can the tape be used for alignment on large assemblies?
Yes, the 5 m length and 12.7 mm width permit use as an underlay or continuous reference for alignment tasks on large machines and fixtures.

How is the strip supplied and stored to prevent damage?
The tape is supplied in a plastic case to protect the working edge and is intended to be stored flat or coiled in the case to maintain the burr-free condition.

Is the material suitable for repeated insertion into narrow gaps?
Hardened spring steel was chosen for its resilience; the material returns to shape after bending, making it well suited to repeated insertion and retrieval in narrow clearances.
