No longer need this! Had someone find this post with a google search trying to find out about this tool in a box they bought. They sent me a PM and I bought it from them. Got to love this site!


I am looking for a Mac carbide scraper model number GS100. I would like to find one in like new shape but will consider all. It is the one with a square carbide bit on the end. I am looking for a picture of it now but can't seem to find one. If anyone has a picture of one please post it so others can see what I am looking for. Thanks!

A guy in my shop has one of these. I'll ask him and repost the model number he has.
Great tool from what I seen if you cant use a Rollock.

Thanks! I have used one that a guy at my work has and it was awesome for tight spots. His is from the 80's he thinks and he has never even turned the bit!

I have used it on a few transmissions filter services when the pan gasket was hard to remove and was in a tough spot. The carbide tip seems to glide over the soft aluminum as opposed to typical scrapers which can gouge into the aluminum if you aren't careful.

Would you be willing to part with the one you have? If not, would you mind posting a picture or two of it anyway so others can see? Thanks!

Lisle also made one very similar 6 sided Triangle shaped.
I checked their website but was unable to find it.

Just got a PM today about this tool! I might have found one after all! I will update the post once I get it in my hands if this deal works out.
