Rugged Die-Cast Aluminium Body

The STABILA Type 81 S features a tough die-cast aluminium profile designed to withstand the demanding conditions found on construction sites. Its slender trapezoidal shape provides a secure and comfortable grip while maintaining the rigidity needed for accurate measurements.

The robust construction makes the 81 S particularly suitable for tradespeople who need a spirit level that can withstand regular professional use.

Precision-Milled Measuring Surface

The Type 81 S has a precision-milled measuring surface for accurate contact with the surface being checked. STABILA precisely aligns the vials with the measuring surface before locking them into position, helping maintain long-term accuracy.

The precision-milled surface is also designed to avoid leaving discolouration or marks on surfaces such as fair-faced brickwork.

Accurate Horizontal and Vertical Readings

The STABILA 81 S is fitted with one horizontal vial and one vertical vial, allowing you to check both level and plumb with the same tool.

STABILA rates the Type 81 S at an accuracy of ±0.50 mm/m in the normal measuring position and ±0.75 mm/m when measuring in reverse.

Designed for Bricklayers

The Type 81 S is especially suited to bricklayers and other tradespeople who subject their tools to demanding conditions. The bevelled profile provides a practical combination of strength, grip and accuracy when working around brickwork, walls and other building applications.

The different lengths also make it easy to choose a level suited to the scale of the work, from the compact 40cm version through to the 100cm model.

Easy to Clean on Site

The Type 81 S features an electrostatic powder-coated finish that makes the level easy to clean after use. This is particularly useful when working around mortar, dust and other construction materials.
