Flare fittings are a type of compression fitting used with metal tubing, usually soft steel, ductile (soft) copper and aluminum, though other materials are also used. In a flare fitting the tube itself is "flared" i.e. expanded and deformed at the end.
Braided stainless steel brake lines (also known as braided stainless steel brake hoses) are flexible hoses fitted to a hydraulic brake system. The intent of braided stainless steel brake lines is to improve brake system effectiveness and longevity as compared to an equivalent system fitted with flexible rubber hoses through near-elimination of hose expansion.
Feeler gauge set (25 pieces, 0.03~1.0 mm measurement range) Measuring the valve clearance of a DOHC engine, between camshaft and tappet (here: 0.004 in ≈ 0.10 mm). A feeler gauge is a tool used to measure gap widths. Feeler gauges are mostly used in engineering to measure the clearance between two parts. [1]
Inside small jaws: used to measure the internal diameter of an object (like a hollow cylinder or pipe). Depth probe, or depth rod: used to measure depths of an object (like a small beaker) or a hole. Main scale (metric): marked every millimeter and helps to measure length correct up to 1 mm. Main scale (imperial): marked in inches and fractions.
The brake lining is that part of the brake pad which actually contacts the metal brake disc (rotor) when the brake is engaged. Using a typical bicycle brake as an example, the backing would be the metal shell which provides mechanical support, and the lining would be the rubbery portion which contacts the rims when the brakes are applied.
