Pocket spirit level STABILA 17953 — 0.07 m length, yellow

STABILA 17953 is a pocket spirit level with a 0.07 m length and yellow housing designed for quick checking of horizontality and verticality in confined or hard-to-reach places. The compact aluminium body, two milled V-grooved levelling surfaces set at a 90° angle and extra-strong rare earth magnets allow stable placement on steel profiles and rounded surfaces. A precision vial manufactured by STABILA ensures reliable accuracy for everyday use by carpenters, installers and technicians.

Advantages

The aluminium housing is robust and lightweight, suitable for daily transport in a pocket or toolbox. Milled V-grooves provide secure seating on pipes and profiles while the strong rare earth magnets keep the level firmly attached to ferrous surfaces. The STABILA precision vial offers consistent indication of deviations, and the 90° angle between the two levelling faces enables quick alignment of perpendicular elements. Its small size allows measurement and alignment in tight, inaccessible locations where larger levels cannot be used.

Suitable for

• Quick horizontal and vertical checks in tight spaces
• Aligning steel structures, profiles and rounded surfaces
• On-site carpentry, installation and repair tasks
• Toolboxes for technicians and service personnel

• Housing colour: yellow
• Levelling surfaces: two milled V-grooves forming 90°
• Magnet type: extra‑strong rare earth magnets
• Vial: STABILA precision spirit vial for accurate readings
• Designed use: pocket-sized, suitable for tight and inaccessible locations

How to use

Place the pocket spirit level on the surface to be checked — on a flat edge, profile or around a rounded member using the V-groove. Allow the magnets to engage if working on ferrous material to stabilise the tool. Read the vial bubble to determine whether the surface is level or plumb. For perpendicular alignment use the two levelling faces set at 90° to each other. After use, store the level in a toolbox or pocket to keep it protected from impacts and dirt.

Usage recommendations

For reliable measurements, ensure the levelling surfaces are clean and free of debris before placing the tool. Avoid heavy impacts and prolonged exposure to corrosive environments to maintain the accuracy of the precision vial and the integrity of the aluminium housing and magnets.
