General Tools 88CM Carbide Tip Scriber with Magnet

Product Description

The GENERAL TOOLS 88CM is a tungsten carbide tip scriber designed for scribing and etching lines on hard materials including metals, ceramics, and glass. The tungsten carbide tip maintains a sharp, precise point under heavy use and performs reliably on surfaces that would dull standard steel tips. A powerful magnet housed in the cap attracts and collects stray metal shavings from the work surface, reducing contamination and protecting the workpiece. The tip is reversible and removable, extending tool life and simplifying replacement. A pocket clip keeps the tool accessible during field work.

The 88CM suits trade professionals who need a dependable layout and marking tool on the job site or in the shop. It is appropriate for use in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general metalworking applications where accurate scribe lines are required on sheet metal, pipe, tile, or glass surfaces. The tool is sold individually and is suited for both bench work and field service calls.
