Empire Industries 500.72 True Blue I-beam Level 72 in

Product Description

The EMPIRE INDUSTRIES 500.72 is a 72-inch aluminum I-beam level built for trade professionals who need reliable, repeatable accuracy across a full range of jobsite conditions. The all-metal frame provides long-term structural stability, while high-impact acrylic e-Band vials deliver accuracy to within 0.0005 inches per inch in all working positions. Exclusive high-contrast vial surrounds improve readability in low-light environments, and the patented blue-band design maximizes bubble meniscus visibility. Impact-resistant end caps protect the frame against the kind of rough handling common on active job sites.

This level is suited for residential and commercial construction, rough framing, finish carpentry, tile setting, plumbing rough-in, and mechanical equipment alignment. The 72-inch length makes it well-suited for checking long runs such as headers, beams, pipe drops, and duct installations. A top-read window supports overhead use without repositioning, and built-in molded grip zones reduce fatigue during extended layout work. Carpenters, plumbers, HVAC installers, and general contractors are the primary users of this tool.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 72-inch I-beam level for use across construction and trade applications requiring a long-format straightedge and level reference.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand tool. Before use, verify vial accuracy by checking the level on a known flat surface and reversing its position to confirm consistent readings. Store horizontally or on edge to prevent long-term frame warping. Avoid dropping or striking the vials directly, as impact damage can shift vial calibration.
