⚡ At a Glance
- • Measurement Range: 1.600\" to 2.100\" installation heights, accurate to 0.001\"
- • Best for: V8 engine rebuilders and garage mechanics checking valve spring installation heights
- • Not ideal for: Applications requiring measurements outside the 1.600\"–2.100\" range
Covers common V8 valve spring heights with a fine 0.001\" resolution. Black background with white scale and a knurled non-slip grip for clear readings and reliable handling.
Faster setup with precise readings - thanks to a 1.600\"–2.100\" range and 0.001\" accuracy
Measurement occurs when fitted alongside the double spring retainer, lock and retainer; rotating the height micrometer yields a direct reading. Accuracy down to 0.001\" helps confirm installation height within tight tolerances.
Reduces iterative adjustments during valve assembly, saving workshop time and lowering the chance of incorrect valve spring seating.
Clear, reliable readout - with a white-on-black scale and knurled grip
High-contrast markings on a black background improve legibility under varied lighting; a knurled texture gives a firm, non-slip grip even with oily hands or gloves.
Quickly read measurements in a typical garage environment, minimising misreads and speeding routine checks.
Built for repeated workshop use - with lightweight, non-deformable construction
Manufactured to be light yet strong and resistant to deformation, designed for long service life in workshop conditions.
Holds calibration and shape through repeated fitting and removal, providing consistent measurements over many jobs.
