Round Tip Awl

When precision marking, hole alignment, or material piercing is on the agenda, this Teng Tools round-tip awl delivers the reach and comfort professionals demand. The 245 mm (9.6 in) overall length gives you access to recessed and confined work areas that shorter alternatives cannot reach, while the lightweight 98 g body keeps hand fatigue to a minimum across a full day of use.

The bi-material handle is engineered with a dual-density construction that locks into your palm and resists slipping, even when your hands are oily or gloved. The softer outer material absorbs vibration during repeated piercing tasks, and the firmer core maintains rigidity so your force transfers directly into the tip without flex.

Automotive technicians reach for this tool to align bolt holes on brackets, score gasket outlines, and pierce pilot marks before drilling. Leather workers and upholstery tradespeople appreciate the clean, round-profile entry point that parts fibers rather than cutting them, preserving material integrity around every hole. Electricians, HVAC installers, and general contractors will find it equally useful for scribing reference lines on ductwork, plastic conduit, and drywall.

The tapered round tip is ground to a fine point that holds its line on metal, wood, plastic, and fabric surfaces. Unlike flat-blade alternatives, the symmetrical point lets you rotate the tool freely without changing the width of your scribe line, giving you consistent results regardless of approach angle.

Compact enough to ride in a shirt pocket yet long enough to reach behind panels, this tool earns its place in any professional kit. Add it to your Teng Tools collection and keep a dedicated marking and piercing instrument ready whenever the job calls for one.
