Grizzly H5887 Joint Caliper Divider 11″+ with Knurled Knob and Pencil

Description

Product Overview

The Grizzly H5887 Joint Caliper Divider is engineered for professionals who demand precision and durability. Constructed from hardened steel, the 16‑inch legs terminate in fine points that scribe clean lines on wood, metal, plastic, and composite surfaces. The knurled knob provides smooth, lockable adjustments from 0 to 90 degrees, and doubles as a pencil holder, instantly converting the divider into a functional compass for circular layouts. With a compact footprint of 2.8 x 16.7 x 0.75 inches and a lightweight design at just 1.25 pounds, it fits comfortably in any tool belt or workshop drawer.

Usage

Ideal for cabinet makers, metal fabricators, and hobbyist model builders, this divider excels in tasks such as marking out angles for dovetail joints, laying out circles for decorative inlays, and transferring measurements across workpieces. Its sturdy steel construction withstands repeated use in demanding shop environments, while the pencil compass feature streamlines workflow by eliminating the need for a separate drawing instrument. Whether you are laying out a complex gear pattern or simply marking a straight line, the H5887 delivers consistent accuracy.
