Chain wear tester with scale

  • Art Nr: 720348
  • EAN Code: 8590831510394

CYCLUS TOOLS chain wear tester with scale for various chains, including SRAM Flattop.

The CYCLUS TOOLS chain wear tester quickly and reliably determines the right time to change the chain. If a worn chain is not replaced with a new one in time, the gear shifting will deteriorate. In addition, pinions and chainrings wear in prematurely and must also be replaced.

The chain wear tester uses two measuring fingers to measure the chain rollers on the inner plates, each on the same side. This means that the measurement result is independent of the roller size and roller play. All 1/2 inch chains, including SRAM AXS, can be measured.

A third finger tensions the chains using a spring. This means that the objective measuring process is not influenced by the personal strength of the user when inserting the measuring fingers. The degree of wear is then displayed on a simple scale. The "Stop" display means = 1% elongation of the chain.

Most bicycle chain manufacturers recommend replacing the chain when the chain elongation reaches the following levels:

  • 0.5% (11-13 gears)
  • 0.75% (9-10 gears)
  • 1% (all other chains)

Features

  • Quick and easy measurement
  • Easy to read measurement value
  • Suitable for all 1/2 inch chains
  • Measurement result independent of roll size and roll play
  • Material: stainless steel

Chain Wear Indicator Gauge

  • Art Nr: 720062
  • EAN Code: 8590831510363

Chain wear tool to measure the extent of chain wear and when a chain needs replacing.

Regular checking of chain wear (stretch) and timely chain replacement avoids the premature wear of other more expensive drivetrain components such as cassette sprockets, chainrings and rear mech pulleys.

Specification:

  • Material: Stainless steel
  • Design: One-piece
  • Chain compatibility: 1/2"
  • Measured from chain inner link plate to chain inner link plate.
  • Is placed with the two short pins (guides) on a chain link
  • The long pin of the opposite side slides into the chain link plate
  • The long pin falls completely into the chain link plate? the chain should be changed
  • Is suitable for measuring the wear of bicycle chains

Chain Wear Indicator Gauge with Scale

  • Art Nr: 720114
  • EAN Code: 8590831510387

Chain wear indicator which measures the degree of chain wear to determine the appropriate time to replace a bicycle's chain.

Worn out chains need to be promptly replaced, otherwise the life of the drive train components (cassettes, chain rings) can also be decreased as well.

  • The degree of wear (stretch) is indicated on the scale.
  • The measurement is taken between the inner link rollers to ensure an accurate measurement.
