Spring Divider M214.245 — 150 mm spring scribing instrument (Metav IndustryLine)

The Spring Divider M214.245 is a 150 mm spring‑tension divider for precise scribing and transfer work in workshops and layout departments, designed to meet DIN 6487 requirements.

• Hardened steel construction for long service life
• DIN 6487 compliant for standardised geometry
• Compact 150 mm span for workshop layout

Durable construction for consistent layout results

The core benefit of this scribing instrument is its hardened steel construction, which provides resistance to wear and preserves leg geometry over prolonged use. The spring mechanism guarantees steady leg tension, reducing slippage during marking and improving repeatability when transferring measurements onto workpieces. As a result, the tool delivers reliable performance for routine layout tasks in metalworking and general fabrication.

Workshop efficiency with a compact, standard format

With a 150 mm span the tool falls into the Standard class of layout instruments, offering a practical balance between reach and stiffness that suits most machine‑shop and metalworking applications. The compact size makes it easier to handle in confined set‑ups while still covering the common range required for fixtures, components and assembly marks. The reduced bulk speeds up positioning and helps maintain steady control during repetitive operations.

Compliant design that supports quality assurance

Compliance with DIN 6487 provides assurance of consistent geometry and dimensions, which simplifies in‑house quality workflows and documentation. Where standardised tool geometry is required for inspection routines or calibration records, a norm‑compliant scribing instrument reduces ambiguity and supports traceable processes. This makes the compass a dependable choice for production lines and inspection benches that rely on reproducible layout results.

Practical features that aid daily use

The spring‑loaded hinge enables one‑handed adjustment and steady contact pressure, while the slim, accurately formed legs facilitate marking in tight or recessed areas. The instrument’s construction aims to minimise play and maximise stability at the point, translating to fewer rechecks and less rework. Paired with straightforward maintenance, these practical qualities preserve tool performance and contribute to a smoother workflow.
