Laser Tools 5848 Brake Pad Thickness Gauge

The Laser Tools 5848 is a precision measurement tool designed for the rapid assessment of brake pad friction material. Unlike basic gauges, this tool features a slim, specialized tip that can be inserted between the brake disc and the pad backing plate, often without removing the road wheels. This allows for a fast and accurate "health check" during a routine service or MOT inspection. The gauge provides a clear numerical reading, enabling the technician to give the customer an exact measurement (e.g., 3mm remaining) rather than a vague estimate. This transparency builds customer trust and helps workshops justify the replacement of worn safety components. Forged from durable steel with high-contrast markings, it is a professional-grade alternative to color-coded plastic gauges and is built to last in a busy garage environment.

• Fast Inspection: Allows for pad thickness measurement without wheel removal on many vehicles.
• High Precision: Provides exact metric measurements for professional service reports.
• Slim Profile: Designed to fit into the tight gaps of modern multi-piston calipers.
• Durable Finish: Steel construction with permanent, easy-to-read scale markings.
