Stanley Tools 42-193 Plastic Line Level 3 Inches

Product Description

The STANLEY TOOLS 42-193 is a high-visibility plastic line level designed for quick, accurate horizontal readings on a string or line. The bright yellow housing provides a large viewing area around the vial, making it easy to read the bubble from a distance. Special hang hooks grip the line securely while still allowing the level to slide freely for precise positioning. Weighing just 0.03 pounds, this compact tool is well suited for layout work in construction, masonry, landscaping, and general trade applications where a lightweight, easy-to-position level is needed.

The 42-193 is used in residential and light commercial construction settings. It is a common tool for masons, carpenters, landscapers, and general contractors who need to establish a level reference line across a span. The flat base design also makes it useful for surface leveling tasks when set directly on a flat material. It is sold as a single unit and is a standard addition to a working tool kit wherever string-line layout is required.

Key Features

Installation Notes

Hang the level on a taut string line using the integrated hooks before taking a reading - a slack line will produce inaccurate results. Position the level near the center of the line span to minimize sag-induced error. No tools are required for attachment or removal. This is a non-electrical, non-mechanical tool; no power-down or shutoff procedures apply.
