Protractor NEO tools 72-034 — metal protractor, weight 1.04 kg, single piece

NEO tools 72-034 is a single-piece metal protractor with a base, designed for precise measurement, setting and transfer of angles in workshop, carpentry and metalworking tasks. Manufactured from carbon steel and produced according to DIN875/2, the flat angle surface is specially hardened and polished to provide consistent, repeatable measurements. The tool features equal thickness arms for stable alignment; the longer arm measures 250 mm and the shorter arm 160 mm. Supplied as one unit, this protractor is intended for professional and repeated use where accuracy and durability are required.

Advantages

The protractor’s one-piece carbon steel construction delivers high strength and resistance to deformation under regular workshop use. A hardened and polished flat angle surface minimises wear and maintains measurement accuracy over time. Identical arm thickness and DIN875/2 manufacturing tolerances ensure stable, reproducible 90° settings and other angular transfers. Its solid weight and robust finish support accurate contact with measured surfaces and comfortable handling during marking and checking operations.

Suitable for

• Setting and checking 90° angles on workpieces
• Transferring precise angles for marking and cutting
• Carpentry, joinery and cabinetmaking layout tasks
• Metalworking layout and fixture alignment
• Workshop inspection and quality control of straight edges

Key specifications

• Material: carbon steel
• Manufacturing standard: DIN875/2
• Long arm length: 250 mm
• Short arm length: 160 mm
• Construction: single-piece, flat hardened and polished angle
• Weight: 1.04 kg (single piece)

How to use

Place the protractor with its base firmly against the reference edge of the workpiece so the flat, hardened surface makes full contact. For checking or setting a 90° angle, align the longer and shorter arms with the respective edges and verify full seating along the flat surface. Use the polished faces as guides for scribing lines or marking points; apply gentle, even pressure to avoid rocking. When transferring angles, hold the tool steady and mark along the arm edge at the required position. After use, keep the protractor clean and dry to preserve the hardened surface and maintaining accuracy.

Usage recommendations

Use the NEO tools 72-034 on clean, burr-free reference edges for best accuracy. Avoid striking or dropping the protractor to prevent distortion of the hardened flat. Store in a dry place and wipe off machining residues and coolant after use. For critical measurements, periodically check the protractor against a calibrated square or surface plate to confirm maintained accuracy.
