Brown & Sharpe 599-777 Retractable Carbide Point Scriber

The Brown & Sharpe 599-777 Retractable Carbide Point Scriber features a carbide point for durability, and a satin, anodized aluminum body. It has a small, sharp point for making fine lines, and is retractable. The instrument works like a pen to retract and save pockets, and points can easily be replaced, prolonging the life of the scriber.

Scribers are used to mark items for identification or within set-up, so that a clear line can be created to work from. They are commonly used in manufacturing, the jewelry industry, and for marking property.

Brown & Sharpe manufactures precision measuring equipment and metrology hand tools. The company, founded in 1833, played a key role in setting industrial standards in the United States. Brown & Sharpe was acquired by Hexagon Metrology in 2001 and is headquartered in North Kingstown, RI.
