Carpenter Square Expert+ MN-83-055 200 x 300 mm measuring square

Carpenter square Expert+ MN-83-055 200 x 300 mm measuring square is a right-angle layout and checking tool intended for carpentry and woodworking. Designed with a 200 x 300 mm profile, this measuring square provides a stable reference edge for marking, scribing and verifying 90° angles on timber, panels and assembled parts. Its durable construction and clear, straight edges make it suitable for repeated use on workbenches and at job sites where accurate perpendicular alignment is required.

Advantages

The Expert+ measuring square offers a rigid frame and precise straight edges for accurate marking. Its size balances portability with usable reach, enabling both fine layout work and checks on larger components. The tool’s construction resists bending in normal carpentry tasks and the defined corners support reliable placement against workpieces. Clear edges reduce marking errors and simplify transfer of lines to saws or chisels.

Suitable for

• Marking and scribing 90° lines on wood, plywood and composite panels
• Checking squareness of assembled frames, cabinets and furniture components
• Setting up and verifying cuts on workbenches, table saws and mitre saws
• Layout work for joinery, trim installation and stair stringers

Key specifications

• Overall blade dimensions: 200 x 300 mm for reach and compact handling
• Right-angle configuration providing a stable 90° reference edge
• Rigid construction designed to maintain straightness under normal use
• Clear, machined edges for accurate scribing and marking

How to use

Place the stock of the square firmly against the reference face of the workpiece so the blade lies flat across the surface to be marked. Hold the square steady with one hand and scribe or mark along the blade edge with a pencil, knife or marking tool to create a precise 90° line. For checking squareness of assemblies, align the stock with one face and inspect the mating face against the blade; any gap or misalignment indicates deviation from 90°. Use the square for layout before cutting and re-check parts after assembly to ensure accurate joins.

Usage recommendations

Store the measuring square on a flat surface or hang it to avoid bending; keep edges free of nicks and debris to maintain marking accuracy. For best results, verify the square against a known reference occasionally and avoid using it as a pry or striking tool.
