This large, robust marking gauge is designed to fit comfortably in your hand for a secure grip. It has a 3''-wide stainless steel referencing face to provide ample contact with workpiece surfaces. The round, beveled A2 steel blade slides on a detented post and reaches up to 6'' for scribing crisp, clean layout lines. Each revolution of the dial moves the cutter 1/16'', and micro-adjustment collars fine-tune the setting down to 1/256''. The replaceable wheel cutter retracts into the marking body when not in use for safety and to preserve its razor-sharp cutting edge.
