Our RS PRO branded all-purpose cross shaped pocket spirit levels have two vials and are an excellent tool that you can carry around in your pocket making them ideal for professional contractors and tradesmen as well as for using around the home or workshop. These plastic spirit levels are designed to give an indication of whether a surface is level and feature 2 screw holes, so you can mount them onto a work surface for an accurate reading.

Spirit levels use a liquid filled vial with an air bubble inside to indicate how level or perpendicular a surface is. Guides on the vial indicate when the bubble is centred showing the user that it is level.
