Adjustable Bevel Gauge MEGA 21085 500 mm

Adjustable Bevel Gauge MEGA 21085 500 mm is a portable manual tool for measuring, transferring and setting angles in woodworking and metalworking. The 500 mm blade provides extended reach for laying out bevels, mitres and angled cuts on boards, panels and sheet materials. The gauge locks at the chosen angle to maintain repeatable settings for marking and scribing tasks in workshops or on site.

Advantages

The bevel gauge combines a long, rigid blade with a locking mechanism that holds the angle securely during transfer and marking operations. Its compact, handheld design makes it easy to carry between job sites or store in a toolbox. The 500 mm blade gives improved visibility and control when working with larger pieces, while the construction is intended to provide stable and repeatable angle settings for accurate layout work.

Suitable for

• Transferring and duplicating angles for mitre cuts in carpentry
• Marking bevels on timber, plywood and composite panels
• Layout and scribing of angled joints in cabinetry and furniture making
• Angle measurement and transfer for light metalwork and sheet fabrication
• On-site adjustments where portable, repeatable angle setting is required

Key specifications

• Blade length: 500 mm
• Tool type: adjustable bevel gauge for measuring and transferring angles
• Operation: manual, with locking mechanism to fix selected angle
• Typical applications: carpentry, joinery, cabinetmaking and light metalwork
• Form factor: portable, handheld tool suitable for workshop and on-site use

How to use

Place the stock of the bevel gauge against a reference edge or face, then rotate the blade to match the target angle or to copy an existing bevel. Tighten the locking mechanism to secure the blade at the chosen angle. Use the locked gauge to scribe along the blade edge or to transfer the angle directly onto the workpiece. For repeat cuts, keep the blade locked and use the gauge as a template to mark multiple pieces consistently.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the locking mechanism before use to ensure it holds firmly; recalibrate the blade position if play is detected. Clean the blade and stock after use to prevent buildup of dust or debris that could affect accuracy. When measuring on irregular surfaces, confirm the reference edge is stable and square to avoid transferring incorrect angles.
