Pointed Divider M214.206 — 500 mm pointed divider with rivet hinge (Metav IndustryLine)

The Pointed Divider M214.206 is a 500 mm precision layout and scribing instrument designed for marking, step measuring and transferring distances in metalworking and general workshop applications

• Hardened steel construction, high stiffness
• Rivet hinge for reliable leg alignment
• 500 mm measuring range for large components
• Conforms to DIN 6486 for workshop use

Precision and longevity for routine layout tasks

The pair of dividers is made from hardened steel, which increases rigidity and reduces wear on the legs, delivering repeatable marks over prolonged use. With a 500 mm span the tool covers larger layout tasks without compromising control; the long legs remain stable under normal hand pressure, enabling accurate centre-to-centre and step markings. The rivet hinge is engineered to maintain a consistent leg angle, which helps to avoid cumulative errors during multiple scribing operations, so the instrument performs reliably across production runs.

Functional design that supports efficient marking

The rivet hinge provides secure alignment and controlled leg movement, allowing fine adjustments that keep both legs parallel when required. The pointed tips are suited to scribing into metal and other hard surfaces, and the geometry of the legs supports both centre punching and transferring measurements between workpieces. Conformance with DIN 6486 indicates the tool meets recognised workshop standards for layout instruments, simplifying specification checks for workshop managers and quality departments. The construction focuses on low maintenance while delivering high functional availability on the shop floor.

Integration into workshop processes and procurement

As a traditional mechanical layout instrument, the divider requires no power or calibration equipment and is easily integrated into existing marking procedures. The simple mechanical design makes inspection and basic servicing straightforward, while the durable material choice reduces replacement frequency. For purchasing and stocking, the tool’s clear specification and standardisation under DIN 6486 support consistent procurement and quality assurance practices. Metav IndustryLine supplies the instrument ready for immediate use in industrial and craft settings.
