Measurements of cracks using caliper and magnifying glass:
Cyl. 1: 0.59mm
Cyl. 2: 0.67mm
Cyl. 3: 0.49mm
Cyl. 4: 0.40mm
Cyl. 5: 0.57mm
Cyl. 6: 0.60mm
Measurement of cracks using feeler gauges:
Cyl. 1: 0.65mm
Cyl. 2: 0.60mm
Cyl. 3: 0.43mm
Cyl. 4: 0.40mm
Cyl. 5: 0.63mm
Cyl. 6: 0.43mm
Average Measurements of feeler gauges and caliper.
Cyl. 1: 0.62mm
Cyl. 2: 0.63mm
Cyl. 3: 0.46mm
Cyl. 4: 0.40mm
Cyl. 5: 0.60mm
