Bar compass M201.274 (Beam compass) — 0–500 mm, carbide-tipped Bar compass M201.274 is a workshop-grade beam compass for precise scribing and layout of medium-sized components, designed for machine shops, toolrooms and general metalworking. Stainless steel construction for longevity Carbide scribing tips for crisp markings 0–500 mm range for medium workshop tasks Compatible with calipers up to 1000 mm diameter Durable construction for consistent layout work The beam compass is manufactured from stainless steel, giving a stable and wear-resistant beam that keeps its geometry under frequent use. The solid design reduces flexing during longer scribing strokes and maintains alignment over time, which in practice lowers the risk of rework. With a mass of 2 kg and a rod diameter of 19 mm, the unit balances handable weight with sufficient stiffness for repeatable marking on sheet, plate and assemblies. Carbide points for precise and lasting marks Equipped with carbide scribing tips, the divider produces consistently visible layout lines on hard and abrasive surfaces. Carbide tips retain a sharp edge significantly longer than plain steel, so the marking quality remains constant over extended production runs. The measuring tips are sized Ø25 × 100 mm, optimised for stability when engaging the workpiece; this ensures crisp scribe traces even on thicker or textured materials, supporting accurate downstream machining or drilling operations. Practical range and workshop compatibility Classified in the medium range for calipers and beam tools, the compass covers 0–500 mm, which is the typical span needed in machine and metal workshops for fixtures, housings and medium-sized components. The design is also specified as compatible with calipers for diameters up to 1000 mm, allowing integration into existing layout workflows and simplifying transfers between measuring and marking operations. The analogue concept removes dependence on batteries or electronics, enabling immediate use at the bench or on the shop floor. Straightforward handling that supports productivity Analogue adjustment and a plain but effective locking mechanism make the tool fast to set up and simple to reuse throughout a shift. The instrument’s readable geometry and robust tips reduce interruptions for tip dressing or replacement, helping maintain throughput. Supplied as a practical workshop instrument rather than a delicate precision gauge, it suits technicians and craftsmen who require dependable layout capability day in, day out—backed by Metav’s focus on reliable supply and industry-grade products.

The beam compass is intended for scribing and dividing work across medium-sized components; its stainless-steel beam and carbide tips allow clear layout lines for subsequent machining or assembly when using the Bar compass M201.274. Can the tool mark hard materials reliably? Yes. The carbide-tipped points maintain sharpness on harder or abrasive surfaces, so the compass provides durable, repeatable scribing without rapid wear. Is this instrument suitable for workshop and machine-shop use? The construction and 0–500 mm range make it suitable for standard machine-shop layout; the design balances stiffness and reach for everyday marking tasks. Are the measuring tips large enough for stable marking? The measuring tips are specified as Ø25 × 100 mm, offering a stable contact area that supports consistent scribe depth and visible marks, reducing slippage on textured surfaces. Does the product work with large-diameter measurements? The unit is compatible with calipers and setups handling diameters up to 1000 mm, enabling its use in broader layout workflows and with larger fixtures.
