ABSTRACT:
An air brake stroke length gage in cooperative arrangement with an air brake system. The gage consists of a stroke length indicator and a reference marker. The stroke length indicator is mounted upon and moves with the push rod of the brake system. The reference marker is fixably attached to the air brake system adjacent to the push rod at a distance which corresponds to the appropriate stroke length for the brake system when properly adjusted. When the brake is fully actuated, the spacial relationship between the stroke length indicator and the reference marker provides a visual indication of the brake system's adjustment.
