Witte 9T 53622 Scratch Awl

The Witte 9T 53622 Scratch Awl is a hand tool designed for scratching surfaces, piercing holes and creating screw starts. It features a 3-component ergonomic handle with a cushion grip for comfort and control. The shank is made from high alloy special steel for durability and strength. This new tool is suited for workshop and garage tasks.

Check handle grip and shank dimensions

Verify that the 3-component ergonomic handle with cushion grip matches your preference for hand tools. Confirm the overall length of 8 7/16 in., shank length of 4 in. and shank diameter of 1/4 in. suit the specific marking or starting tasks you perform. Ensure the high alloy special steel shank meets your durability requirements for the materials you work with.

Suits users needing a dedicated scratch awl

This tool suits technicians and DIYers who require a dedicated scratch awl for layout, hole piercing and screw starting. Buyers needing a multi-function tool with interchangeable tips or a different shank diameter should look elsewhere. Those who prefer a wooden or single-material handle rather than the 3-component cushion grip will not find it here.

Questions about this item

Does the Witte 9T 53622 Scratch Awl include any accessories or does the shank need to be purchased separately?

The scratch awl is a single, complete tool with its high alloy special steel shank permanently fixed in the three-component ergonomic handle. No extra parts are required.

The supplier title lists model 53622 — are there other versions or capacities of this scratch awl to choose from?

Only model 53622 is presented here, with an overall length of 8 7/16 in., a 4 in. shank length and a 1/4 in. shank diameter. No alternative sizes or configurations are offered.

What does the 8 7/16 in. overall length mean when the awl is used for scribing or starting screws in a real project?

That length gives enough reach for deep layouts while the cushion-grip handle and 1/4 in. shank diameter provide the control and leverage needed for accurate scribing and reliable screw starts.
