Aluminium Angle Square MODECO MN-83-020 165×250 mm, carpenter's try square

MODECO Aluminium Angle Square MN-83-020 165×250 mm is a precision hand tool designed for checking and marking right angles and straight edges in woodworking, metalworking and general construction. The tool combines a rigid, corrosion-resistant aluminium blade with a machined stock to provide reliable squaring and layout control. Its 165×250 mm dimensions make it suitable for tasks ranging from small joinery work to panel and frame alignment on site or in the workshop.

Advantages

The aluminium construction ensures low weight for comfortable handling while remaining resistant to rust and environmental wear. Machined contact surfaces deliver consistent 90° accuracy for repeated measurements. The instrument’s size balances reach and portability, allowing precise marking and verification without excess bulk. Simple, robust design minimizes maintenance and delivers long service life in routine trade use.

Suitable for

• Checking and marking right angles on timber and boards
• Squaring frames, panels and cabinets
• Aligning joints and edges during assembly
• Quick on-site verification in carpentry and construction
• Metalworking layout and edge inspection

Key specifications

• Material: corrosion-resistant aluminium
• Overall dimensions: 165 × 250 mm (blade × stock)
• Shape: 90° angle try square
• Finish: machined contact faces for accurate squaring
• Weight: lightweight design for easy handling

How to use

Place the stock firmly against the reference edge of the workpiece so the machined face seats flat. Hold the stock steady with light pressure and run a pencil or marking knife along the blade to transfer the 90° line. For checking squareness, align the stock against one edge and inspect the gap or contact along the blade; any visible light or gap indicates deviation. Use the square on both faces of joints or frames to verify consistent alignment across the assembly.

Usage recommendations

Store the angle square in a dry place and avoid dropping or striking the machined faces to maintain accuracy. Clean contact surfaces after use to remove dust or resin. For critical precision work, verify the square against a calibrated reference before use and periodically check accuracy during heavy use.
