Procurement Tips
Recommendations to help you order the right gauges
For excavators and dozers, prioritize mechanical gauges for oil pressure to avoid electrical failure in harsh conditions.
Specify anti-vibration mounting if the gauge will be installed directly on the engine block.
Provide the equipment make and model for accurate sender matching.
For large construction fleets, consider standardizing gauge types across machines for easier maintenance.
