The NEO tools 72-022 Flat Square is a professional-grade measuring instrument designed for high-precision angle verification and marking. Built to meet the DIN875/2 standard, this tool provides reliable performance for demanding workshop, construction, and engineering tasks. Its robust construction and precise geometry make it an indispensable asset for professionals and hobbyists who require exact right-angle alignment in their projects.
Advantages
This flat square is crafted from high-quality carbon steel, ensuring exceptional durability and resistance to wear during intensive daily use. The tool features hardened and polished surfaces that maintain accuracy over time. With identical thickness across both arms, the square provides consistent contact and stability during measurements. Its design adheres to strict industrial standards, guaranteeing that every 90-degree check is performed with the necessary precision for professional metalworking and carpentry.
Suitable for
- Checking 90-degree angles in metalworking
- Marking right angles for carpentry and joinery
- Assembly projects requiring precise alignment
- Quality control in workshop environments
When it may not be suitable
This tool is not intended for heavy-duty structural framing where larger, specialized framing squares are required. It is also not suitable for applications involving non-ferrous materials that require non-magnetic tools, as it is constructed from carbon steel.

- Material: Carbon steel
- Standard: DIN875/2
- Weight: 236 g
- Angle: 90 degrees
How to use
To use the NEO tools flat square, place the inner or outer edge of the square against the workpiece surface. Ensure that the base of the square is flush against the reference edge to obtain an accurate reading. When marking, hold the square firmly in place and use a marking tool along the edge of the arm. Always ensure the surfaces are clean and free of debris before measurement to maintain the accuracy of the DIN875/2 standard.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify that the 150x100 mm size is appropriate for your specific workpiece dimensions.
- Ensure the tool is stored in a dry environment to prevent surface oxidation of the carbon steel.
- Check if the DIN875/2 accuracy class meets the requirements of your specific project.
Usage recommendations
Regularly wipe the square with a light machine oil to protect the carbon steel surface from corrosion and maintain its precision over the long term.
