Milwaukee Electric Tool Corp MLSQ070 Rafter Square 7 Inches

Product Description

The Milwaukee Electric Tool Corp MLSQ070 is a 7-inch rafter square designed for layout, angle marking, and cut-line work on framing and roofing projects. Rafter squares serve as a combination try square, miter square, and protractor, giving carpenters and contractors a single tool to mark common rafters, hip rafters, and stair stringers directly on dimensional lumber. The MLSQ070 weighs 1 pound, making it easy to carry on the job site without adding bulk to a tool belt. It is sized for one-handed use on standard framing lumber and engineered wood products.

The MLSQ070 is suited for residential and light commercial framing, roofing, and finish carpentry. Framers use rafter squares to scribe cut lines on rafters, joists, studs, and rim boards. Roofing contractors rely on the tool for quick pitch calculations and marking ridge cuts. The compact 7-inch body fits cleanly against 2x lumber and engineered rim material, making it a standard layout tool for both rough framing crews and finish carpenters working on stairs, decks, and trim.

Key Features

• 7-inch blade length accommodates standard dimensional lumber layout tasks
• Lightweight at 1 pound for comfortable all-day carry on a tool belt
• Functions as a try square, miter square, and rafter angle guide in a single tool
• Sold individually (unit of measure: EA) with package quantity of 6 per case

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Rafter squares are non-powered layout tools requiring no installation. Carpenters and framers should verify all scribed measurements against project plans before cutting. Keep the tool clean and free of sawdust buildup along the ruled edges to maintain marking accuracy. Store flat to prevent warping of the blade over time.
