THE STABILA level vials are made of remarkably transparent acrylic glass, offering both robustness and ease of maintenance, while their exterior surfaces are carefully flat to limit any refraction of light and guarantee an accurate reading of the bubbleeven in difficult conditions. The polished interior contours are combined with anti-corrosion reading rings perfectly integrated into the same plane as the internal wall, which allows the bubble to move freely and ensures consistent measurement accuracy, whatever the applications on the construction site.

These vials also benefit from antistatic protection which protects them from the effects of electrical charges or mechanical stress, providing reliable long-term stability. The fluorescent liquid they contain effectively resists UV rays, maintaining color intensity and readability over time. Thanks to this marked contrast, the bubble remains perfectly visible, allowing rapid and reliable reading whatever the ambient lightingand making these vials particularly suitable for demanding construction site environments.
THE STABILA spirit levels offer remarkable resistance to temperature variations. There size of the bubble and its positioning in relation to the rings have been carefully calibrated to guarantee optimal readability, whatever the thermal conditions. Thus, the reading remains precise and reliable over a range from -20°C to +50°C, the bubble always remaining perfectly centered inside the reading rings.
