Angle Gauge Gimex KATOWNIK 250/165 MKSC Slusarski (NW) — metal measuring square 250x165 mm

Gimex KATOWNIK 250/165 MKSC Slusarski (NW) is a metal angle gauge with nominal dimensions 250 × 165 mm designed for checking and marking right angles and edges in metalworking and carpentry. The measuring square provides a rigid straight edge for layout, alignment and inspection tasks, offering a stable reference when transferring measurements, checking squareness of parts, or setting up machinery and jigs in a workshop environment.

Advantages

The metal construction ensures long-term durability and resistance to deformation under normal workshop use. Precisely formed 90° geometry gives reliable angle reference for repeated checks and marking operations. The straight edges offer a consistent datum for scribing and aligning components, while the compact 250 × 165 mm size balances reach and maneuverability for handheld and bench work.

Suitable for

• Checking and marking right angles in metalworking
• Layout and scribing in carpentry and joinery
• Inspection of machined parts for squareness
• Setting up fixtures, jigs and machine tables
• General workshop measuring and alignment tasks

Key specifications

• Material: metal construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• Nominal dimensions: 250 × 165 mm usable measuring faces
• Angle: fixed 90° geometry for square reference
• Edges: straight, machined or formed edges suitable for scribing and measurement transfer
• Intended use: handheld or bench use in workshop environments

How to use

Place the angle gauge with one face against the reference surface and the other face along the workpiece edge to check squareness. For marking, hold the square firmly in position and scribe along the straight edge using a sharp scriber or pencil. Use the gauge as a guide when aligning parts for assembly or when setting up machines; ensure surfaces are reasonably clean to avoid false readings. Store the tool on a flat surface or in a protective holder to preserve edge straightness.

Usage recommendations

To maintain accuracy, avoid exposing the gauge to impacts or heavy loads that could bend the metal. Regularly clean debris and metal filings from the edges before use, and verify squareness periodically against a known reference. When precision is critical, use in conjunction with measuring instruments such as dial indicators or straightedges.
