The Engineers Pocket Scriber 128mm is a compact hand scriber used for precision scribing and layout work on metal, plastic and glass. Its primary use is to mark accurate lines, centre-punch guides and reference points for machining, welding and fabrication where a fine, durable mark is required prior to cutting or drilling.

The scriber is manufactured from high-carbon tool steel for a hard, wear-resistant point; the tip is precision ground and hardened to provide lasting edge retention. The shaft and handle are finished with a corrosion-resistant plating to reduce surface rust in workshop environments, while a knurled grip gives positive control for fine work. Overall length is 128mm, giving a pocket-friendly profile without sacrificing reach. Thread, head and drive types are not applicable to this hand tool.

Although hand scribers are not subject to a single universal fastener standard, this product is manufactured in accordance with recognised hand-tool quality practices and meets the general requirements of industry standards for engineering hand tools (DIN/ISO/BS) where applicable, and is produced under Draper Tools Group D quality inspection routines.

Typical applications include metalworking layout, toolroom marking, sheet-metal fabrication, model-making, pipefitting and HVAC installation. Trades and industries that commonly use the scriber are mechanical engineering, automotive repair and restoration, metal fabrication shops and maintenance departments. The fine hardened tip reliably marks steel, aluminium, brass and other common workshop materials, and will also score glass and ceramics for specialist tasks.

Key benefits of the 128mm pocket scriber include a hardened tip for long life and consistent marking, a corrosion-resistant finish to limit surface degradation in workshops, and a compact profile with knurled grip and pocket clip for everyday carry and quick access. The scriber’s construction makes it compatible with the full range of layout and measurement practices used in engineering and fabrication.
