LP40

Rugged self-leveling, four-beam pocket laser for plumb up/down, level and square applications

The versatile Spectra Precision Laser LP40 is a self-leveling plumb up/down, level and square beam pocket laser. Offering unmatched durability, the versatile LP40 is ideal for a range of applications including installing fixtures, putting in walls and leveling foundations. The LP40 projects four beams up to 30 m (100 ft) and can withstand a drop of up to 1 m (3 ft) onto concrete and still provide consistent accuracy. One beam points up while another points down to create a plumb up and plumb down reference. The other two beams are offset at 90 degrees to each other, pointing out horizontally to create level and square reference points. The LP40 also features a self-leveling mechanism for consistent repeatability so you can be sure your positioning is accurate. Built-in magnets allow the LP40 to be securely fit directly to drywall track.


HD50 Handheld Distance Meter

The rugged Spectra Precision® Laser HD50 Handheld Distance Meter is designed to give specialty contractors a high-accuracy, one-person distance measuring and estimating tool to measure remote and difficult-to-reach places. Accurate to 1/6" (1.5 mm) across the entire measuring range, the lightweight, portable HD50 is more accurate than conventional tapes to help contractors avoid costly mistakes and reduce expensive rework. A visible laser dot lets you safely measure hard-to-reach places or hazardous situations, such as large heights, factory interiors or over water, remotely or from a distance. This capability increases safety and efficiency, as well as provides high accuracy and quick payback.

Spectra Precision Laser  
Features and Benefits
  • One-person, 'non-contact' distance measuring up to 165 ft (50 m) allows one-person measuring to difficult-to-reach or hazardous locations.
  • Accuracy of 1/16 in (1.5 mm) across the entire measuring range reduces measuring errors even over large distances.
  • 'Area', 'volume', and 'continuous measurement' keys allow direct access to measurement functions, and eliminate math errors
  • Visible red laser beam allows fast targeting.
  • Intuitive user keypad is simple and easy to use.
  • Built-in sighting system and waterproof to IP54 for easy outdoor use.
  • Operates over one year on four 'AAA' batteries for lower operating costs and increased convenience.
Applications
  • Measuring distance, area and volumes
  • Checking building square and area
  • Measuring for material estimation
