## Summary description

STABILA Type 196-2 is a carpenter's level 0.61 m long with a red and yellow finish. Designed for general leveling tasks in carpentry and construction, it provides a compact straightedge for checking horizontal and vertical alignments. Suitable for on-site measuring, joinery, and small installation work where a short, portable spirit level is needed.

## Long description

STABILA Type 196-2 is a compact carpenter's level 0.61 m long with a red and yellow finish designed for general leveling tasks in carpentry and construction. The reinforced aluminium profile and protected vial system provide a durable straightedge for checking horizontal and vertical alignment on site. Two vertical vials make it possible to read plumb in different working positions, while two ergonomic hand grips improve handling during installation or transport.
Advantages
The reinforced aluminium profile resists bending and impact on busy jobsites while remaining lightweight for portable use. The STABILA locked vial system secures the spirit vials against shocks and maintains accuracy over repeated use. Dual vertical vials let you take reliable plumb readings from multiple angles, and the two hand grips offer a secure hold when positioning or carrying the level. The contrasting red and yellow finish improves visibility on work surfaces.
Suitable for
Carpentry and joinery tasks requiring quick checks of horizontal and vertical planes
On-site installation of fixtures, cabinets and shelves where a short spirit level is preferred
Small renovation and fit-out jobs that demand a portable, impact-resistant level
Situations where one-handed positioning and multiple-angle vial readings speed up workflow
Key specifications
Length: 0.61 m
Material: reinforced aluminium profile for high stiffness and impact resistance
Vial system: locked/protected spirit vials for long-term accuracy
Vials: horizontal and two vertical vials for multi-angle readings
Grip features: two integrated hand grips for improved handling
Finish: high-visibility red and yellow coating
How to use
Place the level on the surface to be checked with the appropriate vial oriented for horizontal or vertical measurement. For plumb readings, use either of the vertical vials depending on the working position; for horizontal checks use the central vial. Hold the level by the integrated grips to minimize shifting while reading. After initial positioning, allow the vials to settle and read the bubble position against the vial markings to determine alignment.
Usage recommendations
Store the level in a protected place between jobs to reduce the risk of drops and heavy impacts. Periodically verify accuracy against a known straight reference; if the tool receives a hard impact, re-check vial precision before critical measurements. Clean the vials and profile of dirt and debris to maintain clear readings and ensure the locked vial system remains unobstructed.
