Built from cast iron, this 12-inch bench level provides a graduation sensitivity of 0.08 inches per 10 inches, making it well suited for applications where consistent, repeatable leveling is critical. Three vials allow the user to check level in multiple orientations without repositioning the tool. At 1.75 pounds, it is compact enough for bench use while providing the mass stability cast iron is known for. Machinists, tool and die makers, and precision mechanics are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bench level is used in machine setup, surface plate work, and equipment alignment in both production and maintenance settings. It is appropriate for leveling lathes, mills, surface grinders, and similar machinery where a reliable, low-sensitivity vial reading is required. The cast iron base resists flex and provides stable contact across machined surfaces. It can also be used for checking granite surface plates and inspection fixtures where tight tolerances are maintained.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGraduation sensitivity of 0.08 inches per 10 inches for precise leveling readings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCast iron construction for rigidity and dimensional stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12-inch working length suitable for standard machine bed and surface plate applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree vials allow multi-axis level checks in a single placement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact weight of 1.75 pounds for ease of handling during machine setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style precision bench level suitable for general machine tool setup, surface plate inspection, and equipment alignment in toolroom and manufacturing environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBench levels are set and read by qualified machinists or millwrights during machine installation or periodic alignment checks. Clean and deburr all contact surfaces before placing the level to avoid false readings caused by chips or burrs. Avoid placing the level on surfaces with residual vibration, as vial readings will not stabilize. Store the level in its protective case when not in use to protect the cast iron base from corrosion and impact damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLevel Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bench\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGraduation Sensitivity Per 10 Inches\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.08 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Vials\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.75 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCatalog Industry Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 132-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: STARRETT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50564\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540914438450,"sku":"50564","price":382.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2c136041285389326db8eabe7aefebb8.jpg?v=1785865748","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-50564-precision-bench-level-12-in-cast-iron","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
