LASER TOOLS measuring tool

LASER TOOLS offers this measuring tool. In motorcycle mechanics, many decisions depend on a measurement: does the piston need changing, do the valves need adjusting, should a disc be replaced?

Why measure rather than guess?

The benefits:

• Caliper for everyday measurements to a tenth, micrometer for dimensions to a hundredth, such as a piston or a pin.
• Vernier, dial or digital reading depending on the model: digital is quicker to read, mechanical works without a battery.
• You only change what is out of tolerance: no part replaced for nothing, no worn part left in place.

Why choose LASER TOOLS?

Laser Tools began in 1976 on a market stall in Leamington, England, where Martin Smith sold automotive tools; the brand belongs to The Tool Connection, based in Southam, Warwickshire. The company designs and manufactures specialist tools in Sheffield and works closely with vehicle manufacturers to develop new ones.

When should you replace this tool?

An instrument that has been dropped, scratched or worn contact faces, a zero that no longer returns, bent or rusty feeler blades, damaged multimeter probes: have it checked or replace it, a false reading leads to a wrong decision.
