Frequently Asked Questions

Why does a magnetic base matter?

A magnetic base lets the level stick to steel studs, brackets, pipes and frames, so it stays in place while you set out or check a mark. That is a real advantage for one person work on steel framing and metal fixtures, where you would otherwise need a second hand to hold the level.

Which angles does this level read?

It reads three angles: 0 degrees for horizontal, 90 degrees for vertical, and 45 degrees for mitres and slopes. The three high visibility bubbles cover the angles most often needed for installing shelving, setting out and general levelling work.

Is 225mm long enough for general levelling?

A 225mm level is a compact tool, ideal for fixtures, shelves and tight spaces where a full length level will not fit. For long horizontal runs and larger setting out, pair it with a longer level or a chalk line, and use this one for the detail checks.

What is the difference between a spirit level and a torpedo level?

A spirit level is the general term for a level that uses a liquid filled vial with a bubble, while a torpedo level is a specific compact shape of spirit level built for tight spaces. Torpedo levels are short, often magnetic, and fit easily into a tool bag, making them the practical choice for fixtures and small surfaces.
