Title: Belt tension gauge
Post by: c-fut on July 17, 2016, 11:07:23 AM

How is the Gates Krikit I V-Belt Tension Gauge that Zero is selling? Is there a better more accurate gauge out there?

Yeah, that one is good.  Its probably less money if you don't buy it from Zero.

Just follow the instructions and test the lower belt in the center.

I found this on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Gates-91107-Belt-Tension-Tester/dp/B000MUTAGS (https://www.amazon.com/Gates-91107-Belt-Tension-Tester/dp/B000MUTAGS)

Is this the same that Zero is offering? It looks the same but I've read there are different gauges for different types of bets.

Yes this is identical to what Zero sells.
