FAQs

What sizes are included in the 13-blade set?

The Sealey S0518 includes 13 imperial blades ranging in thickness from 0.002"" to 0.040"".

Are these blades suitable for metric measurements?

No, this set is specifically designed for imperial measurements. For metric applications, a separate metric feeler gauge set would be required.

What is the warranty on this feeler gauge?

The Sealey Feeler Gauge S0518 comes with a lifetime warranty.

How should I clean the feeler gauge blades?

Wipe each blade clean with a dry, lint-free cloth after use. If necessary, use a mild solvent and ensure the blades are thoroughly dried afterwards.

Can I bend the blades if I use too much force?

Yes, the thinner blades can bend if excessive force is applied or if they are forced into tight gaps. Handle them with care.

What are the dimensions of each blade?

Each blade measures 100mm in length and 10mm in width.

Troubleshooting

Blades appear bent or damaged.

Inspect each blade carefully. If a blade is significantly bent, it may no longer provide accurate measurements and should be replaced if possible, or the set may need replacing. Handle with care in the future.

Difficulty reading blade sizes.

Ensure the blades are clean and dry. Use adequate lighting. If markings are worn, carefully note the order of the blades from thinnest to thickest for reference.

Gauge feels stiff or difficult to open/close.

Wipe down each blade with a light machine oil and ensure no debris is caught between them. Gently flex the blades to loosen them. Avoid excessive force.
