Quick and easy brake maintenance

I use it at work when inspecting the brakes. If the pads are still installed, this is a great way to check how worn they are. Useful for a quick call to let a customer know their brakes need replacing.

Pros
  • handy thing
Cons
  • There are defects

Simplicity and Reliability

I'm glad I chose this gauge for its simplicity and durability. By the way, this is the second Ares product, the second is a syringe with liquid that I bought and so far Ares is 2-0 with me. 👍

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Disappearance

The paint peels off with frequent use

I really like this product as it is a solid metal device. The color will rub off if you use it every day, so be careful! Another reason I like it is that it's bigger than the one we have in store and a lighter color. I just keep it clean and keep it in my tool box.

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • weight

Very well made at Tools & Equipment

This article appears to be well made. It spins very smoothly compared to others where they bump into each other. The color is even, does not flow. The edge is sharp and flat for precise measurements. I know it sounds weird but this item really stands out from others I've used in the store. A few dollars more was worth it.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Professional garden mechanic's tool

The tool is durable and very well made. It was easy to use to measure the outer brake pad. There was some difficulty measuring the inside of the brakes. I'm not able to put the car on a lift so I don't know if I would be able to if it was easier. A final recommendation is to provide diagrams showing how measurements can be taken if the user is having difficulties. I spoke to my local mechanic when they checked my car and he uses the same tool.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • You could have chosen a newer model

Color coding system (heavy duty)

The color coding system makes it quick and easy to determine when the brake pads need changing. If your brake pads fall in the 2mm (red) or 3mm (red) range, replace them immediately like I did. If the brake pads are below the 4mm (Yellow), 5mm (Yellow), or 6mm (Yellow) mark, they should be replaced as soon as possible. If they are within 8mm (green), 10mm (green), or 12mm (green), they are obviously in good condition. They're great for people like me who do their own maintenance. Also, it would

Pros
  • Lasting test results
Cons
  • Almost never
