This product really is the Dogs' when it comes to engine building. It is a non-hardening jointing compound, which is fine with higher temperatures making it suitable for the vast majority of applications on both classic and modern, air cooled and water cooled motorcycle engines and gear boxes. It was originally developed by Rolls Royce and is now made under licence. It is in its element for joining the crankcases where there is not usually a gasket. It doesn't block oilways and is easy to use. We usually paint it on with cheap artists paint brushes which we buy from the cheapo supermarkets.
Especially with classic bikes, we tend to paint all mating surfaces with Wellseal, even when using gaskets. We even use it on head gaskets. It is a bit belt and braces, but you're far less likely to get an oil leak if you apply Wellseal as well as the gasket.
We don't tend to recommend the tubes as once opened, the stuff escapes out of the top and all over the shelf it's stored on - no idea why and loads of the stuff is sold in tubes. We prefer the tins which are far easier to use. We'll sell you tins or tubes - your choice!
Sadly the manufacturer of this product has stopped supplying the tins. We have explained our experiences to makers of this fine product and they will hopefully take our comments on board - watch this space!

Nice compact piece of kit that doesn’t clutter up the tool box too much. Really easy to use and ensures chain is running true .I should’ve bought one years ago!!
Excellent tool for precise measurements and a good price.
Firstly the product represents good value and is perfect for my needs. Ordering was easy, communication was brilliant and delivery was trouble free. Thanks for the sticker and the Haribo nice touch
Really pleased with this tool. Well made and robust and first class quality.
A really decent measuring instrument. A good quality "feel' to it. Also a nice box to keep it in, stop it rattling around in your toolbox. Not just a cheap thin plastic wallet. I will be keeping and using this for a long time.
Strangely though, it has NO vernier scale, and so is not really a VERNIER caliper. Strange but true!
Very happy with the vernier calipers, and quick delivery.
Ralph does it again…….i cannot praise Bikers Toolbox highly enough. I buy all my tools from Ralph, simply because he truly deserves our business. Proof again with the Digital Vernier Caliper I recently bought from him. Top quality tools that he is prepared to pass on for a price that is an absolute bargain, he genuinely doesn’t need to offer these prices, but the fact he does is absolutely gold in the motorcycle community. Thanks!!!
Haven’t used them yet but they look good..
Spot on, super quick delivery. Thanks for the complimentary chew 😁 I will come straight back to you if I need more tools, especially for my older bikes
I've bought them to work on Japanese carburettors
