Tajima Ink-Rite Snap Line

Tajima Ink-Rite Snap Line

The Ink-Rite is a modern interpretation of the Japanese sumitsubo or ink line. The sumitsubo works similarly to western chalk lines, but is capable of much finer work. Because ink can saturate a much thinner line than chalk, the resulting mark is small, crisp and easy to read. The resulting marks are quite smudge resistant.

Our ink line comes in a sealed plastic body and won't leak like traditional wooden versions. So, it's safe to store in your tool box. Ink is resupplied through a trap door and is stored in a reservoir sponge. An adjustable tension spring keeps the string taut during use and retracts it after the line has been popped. Includes 25' of string.

Ink is sold separately.
