Product overview
Hilka 8 Piece Brake Pad Thickness Gauge Set Metric & Imperial Markings Red Yellow Green Wear Indicators
The Hilka 8 Piece Brake Pad Thickness Gauge Set is a practical automotive inspection tool designed to help assess brake pad lining wear. The gauges are designed to fit between the brake disc and brake pad backing plate, allowing brake pad thickness to be checked during routine vehicle maintenance and brake inspections.
The set uses a three-colour coding system to make thickness checks quick and easy to interpret. Red gauges represent thinner measurements, yellow gauges cover intermediate thicknesses and green gauges indicate greater remaining pad thickness. This colour-coded arrangement allows mechanics and vehicle owners to identify the approximate brake pad condition at a glance.

Each gauge features metric and imperial markings for flexible use in different workshop environments. The eight-piece set covers 2mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm and 12mm thickness measurements.
The compact design makes the gauge set suitable for garages, automotive workshops and mobile vehicle maintenance. It provides a simple method for visually checking brake pad lining thickness without requiring complex measuring equipment.
