Bow point divider M214.215 — 400 mm span, rivet hinge, hardened steel (Metav IndustryLine)

the Bow point divider M214.215 is a precision marking instrument for layout and scribing tasks in metalworking and general workshop use, designed to transfer and divide dimensions reliably over a 400 mm span

• Hardened steel construction for long life
• Rivet hinge for stable, repeatable settings
• 400 mm span for large components

Precise layout with standards-based geometry

The instrument offers a stable geometry compliant with DIN 6486, providing consistent marking behaviour across frequent use. The robust hinge mechanism keeps the legs aligned, so measurements and scribed circles remain true even during repetitive layout work. Where exactness matters in metal fabrication or pattern making, the hardened steel legs resist wear and preserve the tip-to-tip distance, supporting reproducible results on sheet, plate and component edges.

Built for daily workshop use and repeatability

Constructed from hardened steel and weighing approximately 0.5 kg, the device balances solidity with manageable handling. The rivet hinge secures the chosen setting and reduces play, which lowers the risk of accidental drift during marking. This combination of material and hinge design reduces maintenance and extends service life, making the tool suitable for production-side layout tasks as well as precision bench work.

Wide span and practical applicability

With a maximum span of 400 mm, the divider addresses larger layout tasks such as marking bolt circles, transferring templates or scribing arcs on housings and flanges. The pointed tips facilitate accurate contact points on diverse surfaces while the overall geometry simplifies repetitive divisions and radial layouts. The model is listed under SKU M214.215 and is intended for workshops that require a dependable, heavy‑duty divider for everyday marking duties.
