What this tool is for

Designed to fit Type 6 to 36 clamp brake chambers, this air brake stroke gauge helps during pre-trip and DOT-style checks.
It’s intended to support inspection workflows by providing a straightforward way to align and read the scale, so you can spot signs like abnormal movement and other inspection issues (like air leaks, rust, or unusual behavior) that may need attention.

Biggest appeal is that it’s meant to make measurements feel more repeatable—especially when you’re working under time pressure.

This tool exists for the real-world problem of inspections where you need consistency.
At some point, “close enough” isn’t a great plan—especially when you’re trying to catch issues early.
The biggest goal here is to support a more structured check by measuring pushrod stroke and helping identify long-stroke configurations.

• Truck drivers who want a clearer, repeatable way to support pre-trip inspections.
• Repair shop mechanics and professional inspectors who handle brake chamber checks as part of regular service.
• Teams that want to reduce “measurement ambiguity” during busy inspection windows.

Note: It’s intended for Type 6–36 clamp brake chambers, so compatibility matters.

If you’re working with Type 6 to 36 clamp brake chambers and you want a straightforward way to measure pushrod stroke while supporting inspection routines,
the Craimil brake chamber identification tool is a practical add-on. It’s stainless, built for the job, and aimed at helping you read the scale clearly—so you can spend less time second-guessing and more time doing the right checks.
