Spirit level STANLEY FatMax TORPEDO 22 cm — 3 vials, magnetic base

The STANLEY FatMax TORPEDO 22 cm spirit level is a compact measuring tool designed for use in confined spaces and general installation tasks. It features three vials that provide readings for horizontal (0°), vertical (90°) and 45° angles, and a magnetic base that secures the tool to ferrous metal surfaces. The short length and durable construction make it suitable for aligning fixtures, cabinets, pipes and electrical components where access is limited.

Advantages

The 22 cm FatMax TORPEDO level combines a small footprint with three precision vials for quick multi-angle checks without changing tools. The magnetic base allows hands-free operation on metal profiles and conduits, improving speed and repeatability when positioning or holding parts. Robust housing and impact-resistant end caps increase durability in workshop and site environments. The clear vial markings and bubble visibility facilitate accurate readings in low-light or awkward orientations.

Suitable for

• Installing and aligning cabinets, shelves and fixtures in tight spaces
• Positioning HVAC ductwork and pipework
• Electrical and conduit layout and mounting
• Carpentry work where short, accessible leveling is required
• Metalworking tasks that benefit from a magnetic attachment

Key specifications

• Length: 22 cm compact profile for tight access
• Vials: three vials for 0°, 90° and 45° angle measurements
• Base: magnetic base for secure attachment to ferrous surfaces
• Housing: durable construction with impact-resistant end protection
• Visibility: high-contrast vial markings for clear bubble reading

How to use

Place the spirit level on the surface or edge to be checked so that the relevant vial is aligned with the measurement direction. For horizontal checks, use the central horizontal vial; for vertical alignment, use the vertical vial; for mitre or angle tasks, use the 45° vial. When working on metal surfaces, attach the tool by its magnetic base to hold it in place and free your hands. Check the bubble position relative to the vial markings and adjust the object until the bubble is centered. Re-check after fastening to confirm alignment remains accurate.

Usage recommendations

Store the level in a dry place and avoid strong impacts to preserve vial integrity. Periodically verify accuracy against a known flat reference surface before critical installations. Use the magnetic base only on clean, flat ferrous surfaces to ensure reliable adhesion.
