Milwaukee Electric Tool Corp 500M.48 Magnetic I-beam Level

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE ELECTRIC TOOL CORP 500M.48 is a 48-inch magnetic I-beam level built for trade professionals who need accurate readings on ferrous surfaces. The I-beam frame construction provides rigidity and durability across demanding jobsite conditions. Integrated magnets allow the level to hold hands-free on steel beams, pipe, and other metal surfaces, keeping both hands free during layout and installation tasks. At 5.16 pounds, the tool offers a solid, balanced feel without excess bulk. This level is suited for electricians, plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and general contractors working in commercial and residential environments.

The 500M.48 is well suited for applications where a reliable 48-inch reference is needed on metal framing, ductwork, conduit runs, pipe installations, and structural steel. The magnetic base makes it particularly effective when working vertically or overhead, where a free-standing level would not stay in position. It is sold in packages of two units, making it a practical choice for stocking a service vehicle or outfitting multiple crew members.

Key Features

• 48-inch overall length provides extended reference span for large-scale layout work
• Magnetic base adheres to ferrous metal surfaces for hands-free positioning

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose magnetic I-beam level suitable for use across electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical installation trades on both residential and commercial jobsites.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand tool. Inspect the vials and magnetic surfaces before each use to confirm accuracy and proper adhesion. When using on painted or coated metal surfaces, verify that the magnets seat fully and that the level does not shift during use. Store the level flat or in a protective case to prevent vial damage and frame distortion over time.
