Selected User Reviews For Five Oceans Marine Dual Scale Tilt Gauge Clinometer
Since I bought a small tractor, I'm a little wary of driving on Knowing where I am helps me to stay on track. In tractor manuals it states that side slopes should be avoided as much as possible, and weight should be transported low. However, this tool helps me see the angle at which the tractor is operating. In time, my body will certainly sense the slope and I won't require this product for tractor driving, but for now, it serves my purpose, is a decent price, and appears better made than RV levels I've used in the past. I like that there are two scales included.
The best deal ever - two for the price of one That's not to be beat. Upon review of Comments, it is obvious that everyone using this gauge is a farmer or ATM owner. A well-made gauge appears to be in place. Taiwan is mentioned on the package as the country of manufacture. It's always good to see students doing well in their classes. In addition, the gages themselves have no origin markings, they are blank, and do not even have the 5 Oceans logo on them. I have a few observations to make The gauge is just under 4 inches long by 3 inches wide. Despite their size, they are easy to see, as they are approximately 25" wide. The holes for screws are in the corners, and so they are not close together. The minor gradient gage needs a lighter oil in the tube to prevent the ball from moving freely. I can imagine the marine version to be less squarish, less wide, and the gauges to be The numbers are the same size but the gradient markings are smaller. The short sides of the bag have only two fastener holes. In a marine environment, one might also find glass tubes that would last indefinitely. The instrument has some marks of its maker.
It is going to be my second purchase of these since I have found them to be extremely useful in my company's Among the pros Due to its viscosity, fluid tends to hold its reading extremely well, so if you need to change readings rapidly then this could be a con. It's a big pro for me when I use a dozer for side slopes. The equipment is a very affordable alternative to a machine built with a slope indication system if it does not come with one.
Cons The temperature readings are slower when the temperature is cold. It is important to keep in mind that the two separate gauges synchronize very slowly (and sometimes not at all as a result of fluid viscosity) so in my opinion you should only pay attention to one gauge at a time depending on your requirements. As a whole Several years ago, I bought them in this manner as my default purchase. A glass tube clinometer with thinner fluid has been purchased, and, most often than not, it has served me only partially. Whenever I need something, this is my go-to.
I bought it so I could test my RZR 50" trail UTV for side tilt. It works fine, but I often find that I cannot take my eyes off the trail to look at it when I am in a situation where I need to see it. As a result, I sometimes ask a passenger to My ability to determine what side tilt I can ride on before I am in danger of rolling over is aided by it. As it stands, I won't know what the limit is until I It is, however, a great help to me.
Three years ago, we bought our first one. Now we're getting our second one. Due to salt air, rust formed on the ball on the first one. My guess is that three years in a salt environment is not terribly I like the look of it, it was a good price and it A little more time and it will rust.
This is a compact and easy-to-read document. A slope of an asphalt driveway was measured with it. Because it's a bit small, I laid a spirit level on the ground and then put the tilt gauge on top of that. This can be done without a top gauge (I did not need it in this case). I think the translation is very clear and accurate for the task at hand.
The new Silva clinometer is an almost identical substitute for an old Silva that was hard to find (and expensive). Here, I did not expect precision since I'm simply showing the heel angle of my sailboat, but this is such a cheap knock-off that I never would have thought to use it. A lot of the time, off is incredibly unresponsive. Your money is not worth it.
