Profile Scribing Ruler Irregular Contour Gauge With Lock

Profile Scribing Ruler for Accurate Irregular Contours

The Profile Scribing Ruler Irregular Contour Gauge With Lock is designed to capture and transfer complex shapes with reliable accuracy. Whether you are fitting flooring around pipes, tracing trim and moldings, or matching bodywork panels, this tool helps you duplicate irregular profiles quickly and consistently.

Constructed with multiple closely spaced alignment pins, the gauge conforms smoothly to edges, corners, and contours. Once the profile is set, the integrated locking mechanism secures the pins in place so the shape does not shift while you mark or cut your workpiece. This reduces repeated measuring and guesswork when working with wood, tile, laminate, metal, or plastic. The compact form factor makes it easy to handle in tight spaces, transport between job sites, and store in a toolbox or workshop drawer. It is suitable for carpentry, cabinetry, flooring installation, tiling, DIY renovation, and automotive or metal fabrication tasks where accurate shape replication is required.
