This set includes two ABS plastic contour gauges in 5-inch and 10-inch sizes designed for tracing irregular shapes onto materials. The tools feature dual metric and imperial scales on both sides for precise measurement transfer and use a friction-fit mechanism to hold pin positions during marking. Magnetic backing on the rear allows the gauges to attach securely to steel surfaces for convenient in.
Key features
- Easy shape copying: Designed for quick and easy outline copying, this profile tool utilizes a reliable friction-fit (non-locking) mechanism that allows you to trace irregular shapes smoothly and transfer them to your cutting materials by holding the pins in place during marking.
- Dual metric and imperial scales: Includes one 10-inch (250 mm) gauge for larger projects and one 5-inch (125 mm) gauge for tight, hard-to-reach areas, with both tools featuring precise, highly visible metric (centimeter) and imperial (inch) scale measurements listed on both sides.
- Convenient magnetic backing: Features four powerful integrated magnets on the back of the 10-inch (250 mm) gauge and two on the 5-inch (125 mm) gauge to ensure secure, stay-in-place storage on steel toolboxes, workshop pegboards, or magnetic surfaces.
- Scratch-free and lightweight ABS: Crafted from durable, lightweight, and impact-resistant ABS plastic that glides smoothly without scratching or damaging the original surfaces of the items being copied, unlike heavy metal alternative tools.
- Versatile DIY applications: Ideal for casual home improvement, DIY hobby crafts, tiling, and vinyl floor installations, offering a practical and budget-friendly alternative to complex paper templates for everyday trimming and shaping needs.
