ROTARY LASER LEVELS

Gone are the days where you use the water bubble to ensure that you've got all your work aligned.

With the developments in technology the laser levels have come about and we are focusing a prime spot light on none other than the Rotary Laser Level.

WHY ROTARY LASER LEVELS?

Considered to be one of the most useful tools for earthworks and grading,these levels required to be mounted on a construction tripod that quickly rotates on a single point laser beam at a 360 degree circle, this particular movement allows for a straight line to be visualised to users.

 

Some common applications on which rotary laser level is used are:

  • Concrete Pouring
  • Installing Fences
  • Building Foundations
  • Trim Work
  • Site Grading
  • Slabs
