Business Select Measuring Wheels

On a large job site, you need the right tools to make sure that everything measures and lines up correctly. Our selection of measuring, leveling and marking tools will help you make sure the job gets done right. Measuring wheels can be very useful for accurately measuring distances for a number of different projects, from construction to landscaping to agriculture and surveying.

Use of Measuring Wheels

Use a measuring wheel to accurately calculate long distances and mark boundaries for any size of project, whether in your backyard or on a large construction site. Suitable for most any type of small- or large-scale project, standard measuring wheels are usually capable of measuring distances of thousands of feet.

Features

Most measuring wheels have handy, comfortable grips and enhanced tread on the wheels for optimal traction on nearly any type of terrain. Measuring wheels come in a variety of wheel diameters. Choose the one that works best for your particular needs. Most measuring wheels also have height-adjustable handles, so you can choose the right setting for maximum comfort and ease of use. Some have magnifying lenses, which aid in visibility of measurements. Gear-driven counters ensure that the measurement moves along with the wheel. Choose a model with push-button reset to change the counter back to zero when measurements are complete.For optimum use, make sure the path you wish to measure is smooth and free of debris. Doing so will ensure ease of movement as well as accurate measurements.

Vertical Measurements

After you've used a measuring wheel to calculate horizontal distance, you may need to perform vertical calculations, depending on the project. Use plumb bobs to ensure that your vertical lines are perfectly straight.
