Marking gauge Gedore R94650013 height 10 mm weight 100 g

The Gedore R94650013 marking gauge height 10 mm weight 100 g is a compact tool intended for precise scribing and layout work in woodworking and light metalworking. With a low profile of 10 mm and an overall weight of 100 g, the marking gauge offers stable control and minimal hand fatigue during repeated marking operations. The design focuses on accurate line transfer and consistent distance setting from an edge to a scribed line.

Advantages

The marking gauge provides a fine balance of precision and portability, allowing users to mark repeatable lines with minimal drift. Its shallow 10 mm height facilitates close-to-surface scribing and improves visibility of the workpiece edge. At 100 g the tool is lightweight yet solid enough to remain steady during use, making it suitable for both bench work and handheld layout tasks.

Suitable for

• Marking mortises, tenons and joinery lines on timber
• Transferring measurements from edges during cabinet and furniture making
• Light metal layout where a shallow scribe depth is required
• Workshop use where compact, easy-to-handle marking tools are preferred

Key specifications

• Height: 10 mm for low-profile scribing
• Weight: 100 g for easy handling
• Function: precision marking and scribing from an edge
• Typical applications: woodworking and light metalworking layout

How to use

Position the marking gauge against the reference edge of the workpiece, set the desired distance for the scribed line and secure the gauge at that setting. Hold the tool firmly against the edge and draw the scribe along the surface with consistent pressure. For repeat lines, verify the setting visually or with a measuring instrument before each pass. When scribing on metal, use steady strokes and ensure the scribing point is appropriate for the material to avoid excessive wear.

Recommendations

Store the marking gauge in a dry tool drawer to prevent corrosion and protect the scribing point. Periodically check the setting mechanism for play and tighten as needed. Use suitable scribing tips for the material being worked to maintain accuracy and extend tool life.
