Part No: SCMT70107 | Barcode: 9311911701070
Sidchrome 12-blade offset feeler gauge purpose-built for checking valve tappet clearances. The 45-degree offset blade angle reaches into valve cover openings where straight gauges cannot, with blades covering 0.203mm (0.008″) to 0.660mm (0.026″) — the full range of common valve lash specifications.

Key Features & Benefits
- 45-degree offset blades — angled specifically for valve clearance work, reaching between rocker arms and valve stems where straight gauges are blocked by the valve cover or surrounding components.
- Focused valve lash range — 12 blades from 0.008″ to 0.026″ cover the exact range of intake and exhaust valve clearance specifications for most petrol and diesel engines.
- 4″ blade length — extra inch of reach compared to standard 3″ gauges helps access deeper valve trains without removing additional engine components.
- Double-etched markings — metric and imperial on each blade for reading valve lash specs in either format without conversion.
- Knurled lock-nut — locks the selected blade in position for one-handed measurement while the other hand holds the adjusting spanner.
When to Use This Gauge
The SCMT70107 is the right gauge for valve adjustment work. Its offset blade angle is purpose-designed for reaching between rocker arms and valve stems — a task that is awkward or impossible with a standard straight feeler gauge. If you are setting valve lash on any overhead valve or overhead cam engine, this is the gauge to reach for.
