Defined tape positions
End slots help hold tape hooks at matching front and rear reference points.

A cleaner reference for every check
Create defined front and rear tape positions at each hub, then compare both distances using your vehicle manufacturer's specification.
Seat each plate flat on compatible wheel studs and secure it using suitable wheel nuts.
Use two tape measures across the same axle and read both from matching slots.
Clean, dry and hang both plates from the integrated oblong holes.
Purpose-built details
The formed stainless-steel profile creates a rigid reference surface, while dedicated tape slots and hanging holes keep setup and storage practical.
End slots help hold tape hooks at matching front and rear reference points.
Mounting at compatible wheel studs avoids using tyre sidewalls as the measuring surface.
A raised centre rib adds structure to the 201 stainless-steel plate profile.
Integrated oblong holes support compact wall storage on suitable hooks.
Workshop order matters
Hang the clean, dry plates on suitable workshop hooks and keep the pair together between checks.
A disciplined workshop routine
Safe support, flat plate seating and the correct vehicle specification matter as much as the reading itself.
Use the specified lifting points and correctly rated support equipment on stable, level ground.
Confirm the plates can sit flat without contacting the hub, brake assembly or other components.
Use suitable vehicle wheel nuts and verify both reference surfaces remain stable.
Run one tape front and one rear, then follow the vehicle manufacturer's specification and procedure.
