Stabila's 37459 - 59" builders level is one of the new "best of the best" professional levels. At 59", just one inch short of 5' this level is very versitile, yet not cumbersome. Times have changed and tools need to change with them. Historically the 4' level has been the most popular, but considering that homes are bigger, rooms are taller and wider, closets, double doors, bathrooms, countertops all are longer, larger, wider, taller makes this level a must for the professional contractor. As the industry leader, Stabila has improved on the "world's best level" with the new type 196 series. This level has a wider profile which means an even stronger frame. The accuracy is certified, top and bottom readings and sports a new rubber hand grip design. Rubber pad end caps and wall grips that are functional yet removable for flush measuring.
