Stabila Technology


SPIRIT LEVELS:

Vial Technology: Take a Stabila level in your hand and look at the vial color, clarity and crispness. Slightly raise one end of a Stabila level and notice how the bubble moves uninterrupted from one end of the vial barrel to the other. Stabila forms acrylic compound into solid blocks. This material is extremely durable. These blocks are then cut, machined and polished. The surfaces of the vials are not distorted. Stabila vials deliver uniform light refraction and minimum reflections. Stabila makes their hairline indicators out of spring steel, and they are placed into precisely positioned machined grooved. Stabila's vial fluid is a family-owned formula that maximizes bubble versus line contrast, stands up to destructive temperature swings (-5°F to 165°F), and eliminates the "bad read" problems associated with static charge.

Take twenty Stabila levels with the same accuracy tolerance (ex. .029°) and stack them on top of each other. All the bubbles match. How many other levels can do this?

Patented Vial Positioning Technology: Always Trust-Never Adjust. Every Stabila level has been electronically calibrated and inspected and has received a certification of accuracy. The vial system is permanently epoxy-locked in the frame by a patented process. The vial system can be completely trusted and never needs adjustment. However, if a Stabila level should ever become inaccurate, you will not receive a used level that has been "fixed" as a replacement. You will receive a brand new level.

Frame Technology: Take a Stabila level in your hand and feel the frame. Take a very close look at the coated surfaces. Observe the fit and finish. Frame strength is delivered through advanced engineering and high strength rib-reinforced aluminum. You can leave a Stabila level out in the weather for a year, and it will not warp or twist. Place a 4-foot Stabila level on the ground and read the horizontal vial. 300-degree viewing eliminates "bad read" problems and expensive re-work. Levels 59" and longer have a bridge over the horizontal vial for uninterrupted scribing and additional frame strength. The surface of all Stabila levels is a high visibility yellow epoxy coating. The coating is electrostatically applied for maximum smoothness. It is durable and is easily cleaned with water and brush.

Patented Wall Grip Technology: Position the level so the red pads on the end of the level come in contact with a wall surface. The soft rubber pads have been designed to grab the wall when scribing lines. The firmly mounted, yet removable, endcaps are made of impact-resistant plastic and are designed to protect the level's measuring surface. If the endcaps break or become lost, they are available as an accessory.

Magnetic Technology: Work Hands-Free! Put one of our heavy-duty magnetic levels on a metal surface and pull it straight off without twisting your wrist. Stabila has the strongest, most reliable and easiest-to-use magnetic levels on the market.

Over 100 years of German engineering, experience, and focus on level design and production means that you will make money with these levels.


LASER TECHNOLOGY:

Horizontals, verticals, plumb and square. Set-ups from manual to self-leveling. All Stabila lasers are made in Germany. Our product range has a variety of products at different prices for different applications from simple to advanced. The manually leveled lasers are designed for quick 20-30 second set-ups. Our patented sight system enables dot location outdoors in full sunlight. Our self-leveling units consistently deliver on exacting performance standards. If we claim 1/4" over 100', the claim is 100% reliable. Our laser diodes & optics deliver bright, crisp lines and bright, small dots. The self-leveling "Compact Laser" is designed to take carpenters from frame to finish. It has thick rubber encasement, advanced optics, the most advanced vibration-dampening system, and is field serviceable.
