Gearwrench 2979 Pocket Scriber 90 Degree Angle 8 in

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 2979 is a pocket scriber designed for layout and marking work in metal fabrication, machining, and general trade applications. It features a 90-degree angle hook tip that allows technicians to reach into recessed areas, scribe along edges, and transfer layout lines with precision. The body is constructed from steel for durability under repeated use. At 8 inches overall length, it fits easily in a tool pouch or apron pocket, making it a practical carry item for machinists, pipefitters, sheet metal workers, and mechanics who need a reliable marking tool on the job.

This pocket scriber is suited for residential and commercial trade environments where accurate material layout is required. Common applications include scribing lines on metal stock, checking and marking fitment on pipe and sheet metal, and general bench work. The 90-degree hook tip is particularly useful when scribing parallel to a straight edge or working in tight clearances where a straight-tip scriber would be difficult to control.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand tool. Keep the tip protected when not in use to maintain scribing accuracy and prevent injury. The hardened steel tip can damage finished surfaces, so store separately from precision instruments or finished workpieces.
