Designed specifically for high performance applications the Telemetrix range of gauges from Smiths are lightweight, slimline and incredibly responsive. With brushed aluminium bezels, cirrus white dial faces and red pointers they provide great clarity for competition use. The gauges are back lit to ensure readability in all ambient light conditions.An oil temperature gauge is an useful item as it indicates when the engine oil is up to temperature. Most engine wear occurs when the oil is cold so it is best not to work your engine too hard until the oil warms up. The easy to read scale shows 50-150 degrees C.This oil temperature gauge is electrically operated and requires a signal from a sender unit to operate. It is recommended that the correct Smiths sender unit is used as the gauge may not function with other types. See the associated products tab for options.
