Tracer Stylus Carbide Gimex 214.033 — carbide tip tracer stylus for marking

Gimex Tracer Stylus Carbide 214.033 is a compact carbide-tip tracer stylus designed for precise marking, scribing and scoring on a range of materials. The stylus features a wear-resistant carbide point that maintains sharpness over repeated use, making it suitable for workshop, metalworking and assembly environments where consistent line quality and durability are required.

Advantages

The carbide tip offers high hardness and abrasion resistance, ensuring long service life and consistent mark quality. Its compact design allows easy installation in marking fixtures or handheld tracer tools and supports repeatable positioning. The solid construction provides stability during scribing and reduces tip deflection, producing cleaner, more accurate lines on metals, plastics and other common materials.

Suitable for

• Tracing and scribing control lines on sheet metal and machined parts
• Scoring surfaces prior to cutting or breaking
• Assembly layout marking in workshops and production lines
• Toolroom and maintenance marking tasks that require wear resistance

Key specifications

• Tip material: tungsten carbide for high wear resistance
• Function: precision marking, scribing and scoring
• Design: compact rigid stylus body for stable contact
• Compatibility: intended as a tracer/stylus component for marking fixtures and tracer tools
• Suitable materials: metals, plastics and other machinable surfaces

How to use

Install the tracer stylus securely into a compatible holder or marking fixture according to the holder manufacturer's instructions. Position the stylus tip at the intended start point and apply steady, even pressure while moving the part or the tool to create the mark or scribe line. For best results, maintain a consistent angle and avoid excessive lateral force that can cause premature wear or chipping of the carbide tip. Inspect the tip periodically and replace it when mark quality diminishes.

Usage recommendations

Use the stylus on clean, debris-free surfaces and avoid striking or prying the carbide tip. For harder alloys or abrasive materials, expect faster wear and plan regular inspections. When replacing, match the stylus dimensions to the holder to ensure secure fit and correct tip alignment.
