Spirit level STABILA Type 70 — 80 cm, model 02286

STABILA Type 70 spirit level, model 02286, 80 cm length is a rigid tubular level designed for accurate horizontal and vertical alignment. The 80 cm profile provides a balance between reach and portability for tradespeople and DIY users. High-visibility vials enable precise bubble reading while the robust construction withstands daily on-site use, making it suitable for tasks such as installing doors and windows, aligning tiles and setting cabinets.

Advantages

The tubular profile offers stiffness and stability that reduce flex during measurement, ensuring repeatable results. High-contrast vials improve visibility in varied lighting conditions for faster, more accurate readings. The durable body resists wear and impacts typical at construction sites and workshops. The 80 cm length delivers extended measuring span while remaining light enough for handheld operation.

Suitable for

• Door and window installation and alignment
• Tiling and floor leveling
• Carpentry and cabinet fitting
• General horizontal and vertical layout work on-site

Key specifications

• Type: tubular spirit level
• Length: 80 cm
• Vial type: high-visibility bubble vials for horizontal and vertical measurement
• Construction: rigid, impact-resistant profile for on-site use
• Intended use: manual alignment and leveling for building, renovation and workshop tasks

How to use

Place the spirit level on the surface to be checked and allow the bubble to settle. For horizontal checks, position the level along the length of the surface and read the vial at eye level; for vertical checks, orient the level upright against the surface. If the bubble is off-center, adjust the object until the bubble centers in the vial. When measuring over longer spans, support the level at multiple points to avoid sagging and repeat the check from both directions when high precision is required.

Usage recommendations

Store the level on a flat surface or hang it to prevent bending. Clean vials and bearing surfaces of debris before use to maintain accuracy. Inspect the profile and vials regularly for damage and avoid dropping the tool; replace the level if vials are cracked or bubble movement is impaired.
