Precision marking with a stable, mid‑range tool

This mechanical bar divider offers precision for repetitive marking tasks thanks to its solid construction and defined measuring span. Classified in the mid range (300–500 mm), the instrument bridges the gap between compact fine‑work tools and long‑reach beam compasses, making it particularly suited to fixture and mould work where reach and rigidity must be balanced. The combination of a corrosion‑resistant INOX steel beam and a weight that gives tactile stability ensures that marks remain consistent, reducing rework and saving time on the shop floor.

Durable carbide tips for long service life

Equipped with carbide tips, the instrument is built for longevity under frequent use. Carbide maintains a sharp contact point much longer than standard steels, which means scribed lines stay crisp and repeatable over extended production runs. The tip geometry (Ø25 x 100) provides a secure contact area while resisting deformation; this supports reproducible results on a range of surfaces and contributes directly to lower tooling costs over time through reduced tip replacement.

Practical handling tuned to workshop workflows

The design of this workshop divider emphasises straightforward, reliable operation: a clear 0–500 mm range gives immediate orientation when laying out circles or transferring measurements, and the effective mass of the tool helps keep the beam steady during scribing. As a mechanical instrument it is easy to integrate into standard marking routines without the need for power or electronics, which simplifies maintenance and training. For applications requiring larger diameters, the device is compatible with caliper setups up to 1000 mm, enabling flexible use across different tasks.
