Marking gauge Gedore R19201000 height 20 mm weight 60 g

The Gedore R19201000 marking gauge height 20 mm weight 60 g is a compact hand tool for accurate scribing and layout work. Its low-profile 20 mm height and 60 g weight make it easy to handle for repeated marks along edges and across materials. Designed for use in woodworking and metalworking, the gauge helps transfer measurements and set consistent offsets when cutting, drilling, or machining.

Advantages

This marking gauge offers a precise, stable scribing reference with a compact footprint that improves control during use. The lightweight construction reduces operator fatigue during extended marking tasks. The simple form factor supports quick adjustment and reliable repetition of measurements, while the narrow height helps reach close-to-edge reference points and fit into tighter workspaces.

Suitable for

• Marking scribe lines on wood for joinery and trimming
• Layout and transfer of measurements on metal and sheet materials
• Setting offsets and parallel lines for routing, sawing, or drilling
• Use in workshop, site carpentry, and metal fabrication benches

Key specifications

• Height: 20 mm
• Weight: 60 g
• Tool type: marking gauge for scribing and layout
• Suitable materials: wood and metal

How to use

Position the marking gauge against a straight reference edge with the scribing element aligned at the required offset. Hold the fence firmly against the reference edge and slide the tool along the workpiece while maintaining consistent pressure so the scribe creates a clear guide line. For repeated marks, verify the setting before each series of strokes and adjust as necessary to maintain accuracy.

Recommendations

Store the marking gauge in a dry place and protect the scribing point when not in use. Inspect the scribe for sharpness and replace or sharpen the point if marks become faint. Use steady, even motion along the reference edge to achieve straight, repeatable lines.
