Protractor NEO tools 72-032 — stainless protractor, weight 316 g, 1 pc

NEO tools 72-032 is a stainless protractor engineered for precise angle measurement and marking in metalworking, woodworking and construction. Made from a single piece of carbon steel with a flat, specially hardened and polished angle surface, this protractor ensures consistent, repeatable results for straight setting and inspection tasks. The tool features two arms with identical thickness for reliable geometry: a longer arm of 150 mm and a shorter arm of 100 mm. Supplied as one piece and weighing 316 g, it is suitable for workshop and on-site use where durable, accurate angle control is required.

Advantages

The single-piece carbon steel construction provides high strength and dimensional stability, while the hardened and polished flat angle delivers exceptional measurement precision. Identical arm thicknesses reduce flex and alignment error, and compliance with DIN875/2 standards ensures consistent manufacturing quality. The compact 150 x 100 mm footprint balances reach and portability for a variety of measurement and marking tasks.

Suitable for

• Setting and checking 90° angles during assembly and welding
• Marking and layout of cuts and joints in metal and wood
• Inspection and verification of squareness on machined parts
• Workshop and site measurement tasks requiring a durable protractor

Key specifications

• Material: carbon steel with hardened and polished flat angle surface
• Arm lengths: longer arm 150 mm, shorter arm 100 mm
• Construction: single-piece design with equal arm thickness
• Standard: manufactured to DIN875/2 geometric tolerances
• Weight: 316 g (approximate)
• Primary function: precise 90° setting and angle marking

How to use

Place the flat angle face against the edge or face of the workpiece so the two arms align with the surfaces to be measured or marked. For setting a 90° reference, ensure the longer and shorter arms sit flush against the respective surfaces, then transfer layout lines or scribe directly from the protractor edge. For inspection, align the arms with the part edges and observe contact across the hardened flat angle to confirm squareness. Clean contacting surfaces and the protractor edge before use to maintain accuracy.

Usage recommendations

Store the protractor in a dry, clean place to prevent corrosion on carbon steel. Avoid striking or bending the arms; use the tool for layout and inspection rather than prying. Periodically inspect the polished angle face and remove debris with a soft cloth; if needed, verify accuracy against a calibrated square to confirm continued conformance to DIN875/2 tolerances.
