Bending scale M214.198 — Flexible stainless-steel 1,000 mm dual-scale

The Bending scale M214.198 is a flexible stainless-steel measuring strip designed for profiling and template work on curved and flat surfaces, offering dual graduations for both fine and coarse measurement tasks.

• Flexible stainless-steel measuring strip 1000 mm
• Dual-sided graduation: 1/2 mm and 1 mm
• Slim cross-section 18 x 0.5 mm for surface contact
• Suitable for curved templates and sheet profiling

Accurate profiling on curved surfaces

A flexible measuring strip converts a flat rule into a tool that follows contours without losing reference. The flexible construction of this strip allows consistent contact along curves, which leads to fewer transfer errors when creating templates or marking sheet work. The dual-sided graduation (upper 1/2 mm, lower 1 mm) supports both detailed marking and quicker coarse measurements, so one instrument covers multiple steps in the workshop process. This reduces tool changes and streamlines layout tasks where repeatability matters.

Robust build for everyday workshop demands

Manufactured from stainless steel, the strip resists corrosion and retains a reliable edge even after extended use in humid or oily environments. The slim 18 x 0.5 mm cross-section provides close surface conformity while keeping overall stiffness adequate for a 1,000 mm measuring length. At approximately 0.2 kg, the measuring strip is light enough for handheld profiling yet substantial enough to lie flat during transfer work. The construction balances durability with tactile handling, so the tool endures frequent use without compromising precision.

Practical handling and typical applications

With a measuring range of 1,000 mm, this strip sits in the Large (500–1,000 mm) class, making it suitable for medium to large templates, sheet-metal profiling, and mould or pattern work where measurement over long radii is required. The flexible format is particularly useful in carpentry, metal fabrication and model making for tracing contours directly from curved parts. Marking and transfer become more efficient because the dual-sided scale allows a choice between fine and coarse increments without swapping tools, supporting a rational workflow that saves time and reduces error.

FAQ

What materials is the bending scale suitable for?
The bending scale M214.198 is made of stainless steel and is suitable for marking and profiling on common workshop materials such as sheet metal, timber templates and plastics where a flexible measuring strip is required.

Can the strip follow tight radii without distortion?
The flexible execution of the M214.198 allows it to conform to moderate radii used in template and profiling work; for extremely tight radii a smaller specialist strip may be more appropriate.

How are the graduations arranged on the scale?
Graduations are dual-sided: the upper edge is marked in 1/2 mm steps for finer layout, while the lower edge uses 1 mm increments for quicker alignment and coarse measurement.

Is the measuring strip delivered calibrated?
This product is supplied as a measuring tool; no calibration certificate is included unless expressly specified. The M214.198 is a workshop measuring instrument intended for layout and profiling tasks.

What typical workshop tasks suit this bending scale?
The M214.198 is designed for template production, sheet-metal profiling, model and mould marking, and any application where accurate transfer of curved outlines over a 1,000 mm length is required.
