Chain Wear Gauge
Item Number: CWG-1
Buy from:The Filzer chain wear gauge, made from laser cut high quality CrMo steel, and is designed to easily test your chain for amount of wear.
- Made of high quality CrMo steel
- 4 levels of wear indicators (0%, 0.5%, 0.75% and 1.0%)
- Easy-to-use
When does a chain need replacing?
Contact your chain manufacturer for recommended replacement criteria. Typically it is recommended to replace chains after they are 0.75% or 1.00% worn.
How the Filzer chain wear gauge works?
The distance between links on a chain, when new, is exactly 1 inch for most bicycle chains. As the chain wears, the chain “stretches” and the distance between the links increase. The gauge is calibrated to indicate 0.00%, 0.50%, 0.75% and 1.00% wear.
How to use the gauge?
Fit the gauge on to your chain and read the percentage worn on the wear indicator. The value that the chain is worn is read from just on top of the chain.
