Precision Onglette Graver Profile
The onglette graver is a versatile engraving profile recognized by its flat top and curved sides that taper to a narrow cutting point. This shape gives the engraver excellent control when creating lines, borders, and detailed cuts.
By changing the angle at which the graver is held, the cutting width can be varied, allowing one tool to produce different line characteristics. This makes the 022-400 useful for both decorative engraving and functional metal-cutting applications.
Ideal for Line Engraving & Borders
The #0, 1.58 mm size provides a useful balance between fine detail and cutting capacity. It is well suited for line engraving, border cutting, lettering details, decorative patterns, and other applications where controlled line width is important.
The pointed cutting edge allows the engraver to establish clean lines and precise transitions.
Stone Setting & Inlay Work
The 022-400 is also an excellent choice for stone setting and inlay work. Its narrow cutting point provides the control needed for detailed cuts around settings and inlaid areas.
GRS specifically lists cutting borders, inlay work, variable-width lines, line engraving, and stone setting among the applications for its QC Onglette gravers.
High-Speed Chrome Tool Steel
The 022-400 is precision made from high-speed chrome tool steel, providing the hardness, durability, and wear resistance required for professional engraving.
The HSS construction allows the graver to maintain a sharp cutting edge when properly sharpened and maintained, making it suitable for repeated use in demanding engraving environments.
Quick Change Compatibility
