Aluminum construction square Dedra ML2062 300 x 165 mm, angle measuring tool

Dedra ML2062 is an aluminum construction square sized 300 x 165 mm designed for accurate marking and angle checking on a variety of building materials. The tool provides a straight, rigid reference edge for squaring corners, transferring measurements and setting out layouts during carpentry, framing and general construction work. Its lightweight metal construction balances portability with stable dimensions needed for on-site use.

Advantages

The aluminum body resists corrosion and keeps the square lightweight while maintaining stiffness for reliable right-angle references. A precisely machined edge provides clear contact with material surfaces to reduce play when marking or measuring. The compact 300 x 165 mm format is easy to carry and store in a tool bag, while the solid construction ensures consistent performance under typical workshop and site conditions.

Suitable for

• Carpentry and joinery layout and squaring
• Framing work for marking studs, rafters and plates
• Checking and transferring right angles on sheet materials and boards
• General site measurement and quick verification of squareness

Key specifications

• Material: aluminum body for corrosion resistance and reduced weight
• Overall dimensions: 300 x 165 mm providing a compact working length
• Edge type: straight machined reference edge for marking and contact
• Intended use: manual angle checking, layout and measurement tasks

How to use

Place the longer or shorter leg of the square against the reference surface so the machined edge rests firmly on the workpiece. Use the square to mark perpendicular lines by running a pencil along the opposing leg or by scribing from the edge. For transferring measurements, align the square with an existing edge and mark at the required distance. Ensure the contact surfaces are clean and press the square flat to avoid gaps that could affect accuracy.

Usage recommendations

Store the square in a dry place and avoid dropping it on hard surfaces to preserve the machined edges. Clean off dust and debris before use and periodically inspect the reference edges for nicks; replace the tool if the edge is visibly deformed to maintain measurement accuracy.
