MEGA carpentry try square with scale 500 mm model 21065

Carpentry try square MEGA model 21065 with a 500 mm blade and integrated scale is a precision layout tool for woodworking and joinery. The tool provides a rigid reference edge for marking and checking 90° angles, as well as transferring linear measurements up to 500 mm. Constructed for workshop and site use, it combines a full-length blade with a stable stock to ensure repeatable squareness when scribing, checking assemblies, or setting up fixtures.

Advantages

The MEGA try square features a 500 mm blade with a clear, integrated scale for direct measurement and marking without needing a separate ruler. A robust stock ensures a stable 90° reference and resists twisting during use. The precision-machined blade edge and scale alignment reduce cumulative error when transferring measurements or checking squareness. Its length makes it suitable for larger panels and joinery components while remaining compact enough for transport to the job site.

Suitable for

• Layout and marking of right angles on boards and panels
• Checking squareness of assembled frames and carcasses
• Transferring linear measurements up to 500 mm
• Setting and inspecting fixtures, jigs, and workbench setups

Key specifications

• Blade length: 500 mm
• Integrated linear scale for direct measurement
• Rigid stock designed to maintain a 90° reference
• Precision-machined blade edge for accurate scribing
• Suitable for workshop and site use

How to use

Place the stock of the try square firmly against the reference face of the workpiece so the blade lies flat along the surface to be marked or checked. Use the integrated scale for measuring distances from the reference edge and mark directly along the blade edge for accurate 90° layout lines. When checking assemblies, press the stock against the face of the part and verify that the mating surface aligns with the blade without gaps or rocking. For repeated tasks, clamp the workpiece or the square to maintain consistent contact while scribing or measuring.

Usage recommendations

Store the try square in a dry place and avoid dropping or striking the blade to preserve calibration. Periodically verify the squareness against a known reference or a calibrated square, and clean the blade and scale to ensure clear reading. For best results when marking, use a sharp pencil or marking knife held against the blade edge.
