Accud Beveled Edge Square 90 Deg. Grade 00 50x40mm

Beveled Edge Squares are specialized tools primarily used in woodworking, metalworking, and drafting to check and mark precise right angles (90°) and, in some cases, to create perfectly straight edges. Unlike standard squares, a beveled edge square features a blade with edges that are beveled, meaning they are sloped or chamfered. This design offers certain advantages in terms of accuracy and ease of use, especially when working with delicate materials or in situations where precision is critical.

• Two beveled measuring faces
• Made of hardened stainless steel
• Satin chrome plating (see specifications for applicable models)
• DIN875 Grade 00

Applications of a Beveled Edge Square

1. Woodworking

   • Checking Squareness: Used to verify that edges and joints are perfectly square, ensuring accurate and professional results in furniture making, cabinetry, and other woodworking projects.
   • Marking Right Angles: Ideal for marking 90° angles on wood, especially when precision is essential for fitting joints or cutting.

2. Metalworking

   • Layout Work: The beveled edge square is used to mark precise right angles on metal sheets or components, ensuring accurate cutting, bending, or welding.
   • Checking Angles: It is also used to check the squareness of metal components, such as frames, before assembly.

3. Drafting and Design

   • Technical Drawing: In drafting, a beveled edge square ensures accurate right-angle drawings and helps in maintaining the precision of technical plans.

4. General Use

   • DIY Projects: Handy for various home improvement tasks, such as ensuring the squareness of shelves, frames, and other structures.
   • Craftsmanship: Useful in crafts that require precision, such as model making or intricate joinery.
