OVERVIEW

Master Your Layout with the Right Tool

In the welding world, the quality of your finish is often determined long before you strike an arc. It starts with the layout. If your cuts aren't straight and your angles aren't true, you're fighting a losing battle against gaps and poor fit-up. That's where this Combination Square becomes the most valuable player in your toolbox. Designed for the practical demands of the metal shop, this tool isn't just a ruler—it's a complete layout system that fits in your hand.

Whether you are marking cut lines on box tubing, checking the squareness of a flange, or setting the depth for a drill press, this tool handles it all. The stainless steel blade is tough enough to resist rust and corrosion, even in humid shop environments, and the markings are precision-etched. This means they won't rub off after a week of sliding around in your tool bag or being dragged across rough steel plate. You get clear, easy-to-read graduations in both imperial and metric units, ensuring you can work to whatever print specs you have in front of you.

The heavy-duty cast head slides smoothly along the blade and locks down tight with a knurled nut, giving you a reliable 90-degree and 45-degree reference instantly. Need to check if a piece is level? The built-in spirit bubble is right there. Need to make a mark on bare metal where a pencil won't show? Pull out the integrated hardened scriber stored in the base. It’s the kind of versatility that saves you trips back to the bench. Instead of juggling a tape measure, a tri-square, and a level, you have everything you need in one robust package.

Stop guessing and start measuring with confidence. A tight fit-up means less filler metal, less distortion, and a stronger weld. Add this Combination Square to your arsenal and take the headache out of your prep work.
