Read the full description
When precision marking and piercing matter, reach for this Teng Tools straight-point instrument with its bi-material handle. At 164 mm (6.5 in) overall and just 27 g, it is compact enough to carry in a shirt pocket yet substantial enough to apply controlled force when starting holes or scribing layout lines.
The bi-material handle pairs a rigid core with a softer outer grip zone, giving you a secure hold even with oily or gloved hands. The ergonomic contour sits naturally in the palm and resists rolling when set down on an angled surface.
Automotive technicians use the straight point to align bolt holes, pierce gasket material, and mark fastener positions during disassembly. Woodworkers and leather sewing craftsmen rely on the fine tip to start stitch holes and score cut lines with accuracy. HVAC installers and electricians find it invaluable for scribing sheet metal and poking through insulation.
Because the handle is easy to distinguish by color and shape, you will not waste time searching for it in a crowded drawer. Keep it in your top tray, your apron, or clipped to a belt pouch so it is always at hand when a job calls for a quick mark or a precise pierce.
Compatible with the full Teng Tools system of storage trays and roller cabinets, this instrument earns its place in any professional layout.
