Leather Craft Spacing Gauge (Wing Divider or Scratch Compass) – Made of premium high durability materials, with a sharp-tip foot press and dual-locking screws for stability.
Premium Materials
• Made from 3Cr13 stainless steel, heat-treated to a hardness of HRC 48–50, ensuring it does not deform under excessive force.
• The 416 stainless steel screws are far superior to ordinary zinc alloy screws.
Scale Advantage
• While the scale has a 0.5–1.0 mm deviation, it still provides a relative reference to help you “remember” your preferred settings.
Foot Press Advantage
• The new design features a sharp tip, making it suitable not only for handcrafted leatherwork but also for other manual industries.
Locking Mechanism
• In ordinary products, improper hand positioning during use can cause the screw to loosen, the scale to shift, and the spacing to change.
• Our design includes an additional locking screw inside, ensuring dual-directional fixation—so no matter how you use it, there won’t be any issues.

Usage
Adjust to the desired scale setting and press along the edge to mark the guideline.
Maintenance & Care
• Stainless steel is not completely rust-proof—it is only more resistant to rust. Avoid storing it in damp or salty environments for extended periods.
• If needed, you can sand the tip with sandpaper to achieve your desired width.
Product Statement
To enhance the hardness of stainless steel, heat treatment is required. However, deformation during heat treatment is inevitable. As a result, the scale markings on this spacing gauge may have a deviation of approximately 0.5–1 mm, and they cannot be compared to precision measuring instruments. Please be aware of this before purchasing, as scale deviations are not considered a valid reason for after-sales service.
Most spacing gauges do not have scale markings at all and are still widely used. The precision requirements for handcrafted leatherwork are not extremely high. The scale serves as a relative reference to help you “remember” commonly used settings rather than as an absolute measurement.
