Klein Tools Skribes 2.8 mm Mechanical Marking Tool with Built-In Sharpener | 10-Pack Lead Refills | Model 80188

Overview

The Klein Tools Skribes mechanical marking tool combines rugged metal construction with a 2.8 mm lead to deliver crisp, visible lines on wood, OSB, concrete, metal, and other common jobsite materials. Built for durability and daily use, this marking tool is designed for professionals who value reliability, consistent marks, and straightforward maintenance on demanding projects.

Two core benefits stand out. First, the built-in sharpener keeps the lead ready for clean, precise marks. Second, the anti-roll, triangular barrel minimizes drift and keeps the tool from rolling away on uneven or cluttered surfaces. A 10-pack of replacement leads is included, ensuring you can keep marking without frequent reorders.

• Anti-roll triangular body stays in place on sloped or busy work surfaces

Versatility across common materials
