Torpedo Level – Magnetic
$ 14.00 Original price was: $ 14.00.$ 13.30Current price is: $ 13.30.
A Torpedo Level – Magneticl is a specialized measuring tool used in construction and carpentry to ensure that surfaces or objects are level or plumb. It typically consists of a rectangular or torpedo-shaped body filled with liquid, with a bubble inside. The level incorporates one or more magnets to attach securely to metal surfaces, aiding in hands-free operation. The user aligns the level by adjusting the position of the object or surface until the bubble is centered between two markers, indicating that it is level or plumb. The magnetic feature enhances stability and ease of use, especially when working on metal structures or surfaces.
