M-D SmartTool Digital Levels

Versatile            

Welcome to the versatile world of SmartTool. Most levels only give you information at level (0 degrees) and plumb (90 degrees) using bubbles you have to bring to center visually between two lines.  You can do that with SmartTool, too, but the SmartTool, with its custom inclinometer sensor made in Oklahoma City also lets you measure digitally, electronically, and with an actual number, at every angle, all 360 degrees of a complete circle.  So installing a deck, stair rail, extending a roof or determining how much an old floor has sagged is simpler, less time consuming, and more accurate.

Simple to use

SmartTool is simple to use without a lot of buttons and features you'll never need.   Just press the on/off button and SmartTool will show you the angle of any surface with decimal-point accuracy.  The display even flips over with the level so SmartTool always reads right side up.  And it shuts off automatically after 6 minutes when it's not being used, all this from a standard 9-volt battery.  And SmartTool can take abuse other levels can't because its components are made of high strength materials and you can reset it to factory accuracy with the touch of a button.

From 6 Inches to 4 Feet

If you can imagine times you'd like to have a small digital torpedo level and a longer level, SmartTool has products to fill all those needs.  The SmartTool Angle Sensor Module is 6.5 inches long or the module can come permanently mounted in either 2 foot or 4 foot rugged aluminum levels.

When used with the optional magnetic bracket, the SmartTool Module will stay on saw blades, metal pipes and buildings, machinery or anything made of iron or steel allowing hands free measurement.

Third parties have also incorporated the module into their own machinery allowing uses from automotive front end alignment to railroad track measurement.  The front and back of the SmartTool Module come apart and allow custom applications to fit between the halves in a way not other product can.

Measures Angles in 3 Different Ways

SmartTool permits you to find level and plumb in two ways.  For quick references, use the sensitive bubble vials.  For highly precise work, use the digital display on the Sensor Module.  It provides accuracy to 1/10 of a degree.  But the real advantage of the SmartTool is that it also reads all the other angles bubble vials don't.  So when you are not dealing with level or plumb, SmartTool quickly tells what the angle is or what the angle needs to be.  And SmartTool allows you to measure angles three different ways: degrees, percent slope, and pitch (rise over run).  Set saw blade angles to a fraction of a degree accuracy with SmartTool.  Assure there is no gap when you join 2 cuts together with digital accuracy.

You can easily duplicate a stair angle for setting handrails and never again will you be measuring top and bottom to make sure stair treads and rails are parallel.  In the percent slope mode the SmartTool allows you to read angles to meet requirements for drain connections, American Disability Act compliant ramps and grading, or anything that isn't level or plumb.  And showing compliance is merely a matter of pointing to the display.  SmartTool also gives you roof pitch readings -- in inches of rise per foot of run -- right on the display.  No two-handed measurements, no conversion calculations, and no mistakes.

Listen and Level™

Have tasks where you really can't see the SmartTool but need instant feedback?  Then turn on the audio beeper.  When turned on with a single button, SmartTool lets you hear when your task is at level or plumb.  This can be great when shimming projects, leveling buildings, pool tables or other projects where you need immediate feedback but are not in a position to see the display.  This can leave your hands free to adjust, nail, or screw the project in place when you hear the beep telling you it is where you want it.

The hold button also makes it easy to measure in areas where the digital display is not visible.  Take the measurement, push the hold button, and then bring the SmartTool in front of you to see your reading.

The bottom line is:  SmartTool's accuracy saves you time and effort and that saves you money.

The uses for the SmartTool Digital Levels and the Builder's Angle Finder's Module are as extensive as your imagination.  In almost any way a need exists to measure angles, the SmartTool has a tool that will save you time and money.  Some of the uses that have been reported by actual users of the SmartTool are:
