Inspect the strip carefully. If bent or creased, its accuracy may be compromised, and it should be replaced. Handle with care to prevent future damage.

Inconsistent measurement readings

Ensure the surfaces being measured are clean and free of debris. Verify that the feeler strip itself is clean and undamaged. Check that you are using the correct thickness for your application.
