Apex 590GMN Plumb Bob Metric Brass 7.7 Inches

Product Description

The APEX 590GMN is a brass plumb bob designed for metric measurement applications in layout, leveling, and vertical alignment work. Built in a cylindrical reads-up configuration, it delivers a measuring range of 0 to 150 millimeters with an overall length of 7.7 inches and a body width of 1 inch. The solid brass construction provides the density needed for stable pendulum hang and long service life on the job site. Plumbers, pipefitters, and general construction tradespeople rely on plumb bobs like this one for transferring vertical reference points where a level alone is not sufficient.

This plumb bob suits residential and commercial construction tasks including pipe layout, wall framing alignment, staircase layout, and any application requiring a precise vertical plumb reference. The metric scale and cylindrical reads-up design make it well suited for tradespeople working in mixed SAE and metric environments. Its compact form fits standard tool pouches and belt holsters.

Key Features

• Solid brass body for consistent weight distribution and corrosion resistance
• Cylindrical reads-up shape for clear metric scale reading during use
• Metric measuring range: 0 to 150 millimeters
• Overall length of 7.7 inches for practical reach in layout tasks
• Compact width of 1.2 inches and height of 1.1 inches for easy portability

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or additional plumb bob for general trade layout work requiring metric vertical alignment reference.

Installation Notes

A plumb bob requires no installation tools or power shutdown. Suspend the bob by its cord from a fixed upper reference point and allow it to hang freely until it stops swinging before taking a reading. Keep the work area free of air currents that can cause the bob to drift and produce inaccurate plumb references. Handle the brass tip carefully to avoid damage that could affect pendulum balance.
