Product reviewsPCL VOSA Approved Tyre Tread Depth Gauge Car Motorbike Truck Van MOT 1.6mm

Perfect tool for anything Automotive.

I know this is merely for tyre depth gauging, but it's so much more versatile.

I use this not only to check tyre depth, but things like fabrication work to measure thickness of steel plate or any other material, as well as using it to check brake pad thickness and/or bolt length requirement, particularly on brake caliper carriers.

It's perfect; It comes with a slightly oily residue that should be wiped off, and if you use it often, it should never rust. The tool itself is made of good, strong material, machined very accurately and seems to work with no problems; The measuring portion that moves around does not bind inside the sleeve and the plastic is not the brittle, cracking type; It's durable and long-lasting. I have used it for about two weeks and it works great! I'd recommend to anyone, whether a DIYer, professional or even if you want to keep in it the glove-box to check your tyres every week.

Solid little unit but accuracy questionable.

Neat little unit but have suspicion of accuracy under 5 mm. AlthoughVOSA Approved metal cylinder that has depth markings on it a bit stiff.

PCL Tyre Gauge a reliable piece of kit

A simple device that has been little changed in years. Better made than some others and not reliant on a battery. May not be quite as easy to read as a digital gauge but is accurate enough unless you are measuring tyre ware for scientific purposes. I bought this to replace an electronic gauge that was giving crazy results because the small battery ran too low. PCL is a British company and I have seen their products being used in Tyre depots. Look out for a good price as there is quite a variation in what is being offered online and in the shops.Read full review...

Tyre tread tester

This item is ok and does the job it's ment to . The issue will be longevity as the materials it's made with are thin and flimsy not like they used to be made I guess that's the modern world and materials available nowadays so not manufacturers fault .Read full review...

Well made item, not a cheaply made option

Well made and sturdy. Only wrry is possible distortion of the measuring "pin" over time. But well made of its type.
