Circle template Hamelin LINEX 1118S — drawing/stencil tool for circles

Hamelin LINEX 1118S is a circle template designed as a drawing and stencil tool for precise circle marking. Intended for hand drafting, technical drawing and school use, the template features a series of circular cutouts that enable tracing of consistent radii. Its lightweight, compact construction makes it convenient to carry in a pencil case or drafting kit and speeds up repetitive circle drawing tasks while maintaining accuracy.

Advantages

The template provides a wide selection of pre-cut circle sizes that eliminate the need to measure and mark each radius manually, reducing drawing time and minimizing measurement errors. Made from durable, transparent plastic, it allows visual alignment with underlying drawings and text. The compact format is space-efficient and easy to handle for both students and professionals engaged in layout and design work.

Suitable for

• Hand drafting and technical drawings
• School classes, lessons and student projects
• Graphic layout, diagramming and illustration
• Architectural and engineering sketches

Key specifications

• Material: transparent plastic for visibility and alignment
• Design: multiple circular cutouts covering a range of radii
• Size: compact, portable format suitable for pencil cases
• Weight: lightweight for easy handling
• Compatibility: suitable for use with pencils, fine liners and technical pens

How to use

Place the template on the drawing surface and align the chosen circular cutout with the required center point. Hold the template steady with one hand to prevent shifting and trace the circle with a pencil or pen through the cutout. For repeated or identical circles, use the same cutout and alignment marks to ensure consistency. Clean the template periodically with a soft cloth to remove graphite or ink residues and store it flat to avoid warping.

Usage recommendations

Use light hand pressure when tracing to preserve the template edges and avoid smudging. Select a fine mechanical pencil or technical pen for clear, precise lines. When working on technical drawings, verify alignment against reference gridlines or measured points before final inking.
