Plastigage Green

Plastigage provides a fast and accurate way to check bearing clearances. Plastigage is a special extruded plastic thread of a definite diameter with accurately controlled crush properties. The material is round, smooth and flexible through a wide range of temperatures. Extreme cold will make it somewhat brittle and heat will soften the material. However, Plastigage remains usable and accurate through all normal atmospheric variations of temperature and humidity in work areas where bearing clearances may be checked.
