Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is a steel magnetic spirit level used for in scaffolding?
A. A steel magnetic spirit level checks horizontal and vertical plumb on scaffold standards, ledgers, and base plates during erection. The magnetic base attaches directly to scaffold tube for hands-free level checking, allowing accurate plumb and level checking without a second person holding the tool.
Q. How does the magnetic base work on a scaffold spirit level?
A. The magnetic base contains powerful rare earth magnets that grip directly to the steel surface of scaffold tube and fittings. You attach the level to the tube and read the bubble position without holding the tool, freeing both hands for tube adjustment.
Q. What tube size is the steel magnetic spirit level designed for?
A. The Altrad Generation steel magnetic spirit level is designed to attach to 3.2mm and 4.0mm scaffold tube. The magnetic base grips securely to the tube surface for accurate hands-free level reading during scaffold erection.
Q. Is a spirit level required by scaffolding regulations?
A. While there is no regulation specifically requiring spirit levels, NASC TG20 and BS EN 12811 require scaffolds to be erected plumb and level within specified tolerances. A spirit level is the practical tool for achieving and verifying these tolerances during erection.
Q. Are steel magnetic spirit levels available from Altrad Generation?
A. Yes. Altrad Generation supplies steel magnetic spirit levels as part of the scaffolding tools range from Altrad Generation.
