Brake Disc Thickness Gauge, 0-35mm Range
Brief Overview
This brake disc thickness gauge eliminates the need to remove wheels for thickness assessment, delivering rapid diagnostic capability on the vehicle. The 0-35mm measurement range covers standard automotive brake disc applications across passenger vehicles and light commercial fleets. The direct contact measurement method provides quick compliance verification against manufacturer wear limits.
Key Features
- Non-Invasive Measurement: Gauge directly through the wheel without removal—critical time-saver for high-volume service environments
- 0-35mm Range: Covers typical brake disc thickness specifications from new to replacement threshold
- Dual Contact System: C-shaped jaw for outer disc surface + adjustable brass contact pin for precision positioning
- Graduated Scale Display: Clear plastic sleeve with fine white line graduations for easy reading
- Sliding Stop Lock: Central locking mechanism holds the measurement position during removal from the disc
- Ergonomic T-Handle Design: Comfortable pull/push grip for consistent measurement technique
- Durable Construction: Metal shaft with protective plastic pads and grips; brass contact point resists wear
Business Advantages for Resellers
Diagnostic Efficiency: Position this tool as an essential fleet maintenance item. Shops performing routine brake inspections can cut inspection time per vehicle by 5-10 minutes versus wheel-off measurement.
Compliance Documentation: Service departments need objective thickness data to justify disc replacement recommendations. This gauge provides the evidence needed to support upsell of brake service packages.
Low Shrinkage: Unlike calipers or dial gauges, this single-purpose tool has minimal loss risk—technicians recognize it's specific to brake work and return it to the toolbox.
Repeat Purchase Opportunity: Recommend as a standard addition to brake service kits. High-volume shops typically order 2-3 units to reduce queue time during peak service periods.

Critical Information for Resale
Important: Always instruct end-users to reference the vehicle manufacturer's service manual for minimum and maximum brake disc wear specifications. This gauge measures thickness only—interpretation of acceptable wear limits is the technician's responsibility.
Application Scope: Suitable for standard automotive brake systems. Not designed for specialty high-performance or carbon-ceramic disc applications.
Why Resellers Choose This Gauge
This is a high-turnover diagnostic essential for any service shop performing brake work. The efficiency gain (no wheel removal) justifies inventory investment, and the low cost per unit makes it an easy add-to-order for brake service packages. Stock 2-3 units per service bay and position as a mandatory diagnostic tool, not an optional upgrade.
Recommended Stock Level: 2–3 units per service location | Target Market: Independent service shops, fleet maintenance facilities, tire and brake specialists
