Squares

The square is the tool used to mark out and check right angles and to transfer measurements accurately. It is used on site, in carpentry, in joinery and in masonry, whenever an angle must be corrected before cutting, laying or fixing.

Types in the collection

• Try squares, with a stock, for marking out and checking squareness.
• Joiner's and carpenter's squares, in steel, aluminium or with a graduated blade.
• Triangular squares for quick cutting and marking out of angles and slopes.
• Bricklayer's squares in high-strength steel.
• Adjustable squares for angles other than 90 degrees.

The brands included are Stanley, Metrica, Milwaukee, Pavan, Fervi, Probst and Rubi.

How to choose

Choose the length of the arms according to the pieces you need to square up, and the material according to the use: steel is sturdy, aluminium is light. A clear engraved scale and a well-machined stock make marking out more accurate.
