Measuring & Marking Tools

Measuring Instruments

A wide variety of tools can be used for short-distance and long-distance measurements. Tape measures and surveyor’s ropes are excellent choices for measuring lengths, and you can choose from units made of different construction materials like plastic and steel. What’s more, with the advent of technology, the use of electronic measuring tools is becoming a common practice among surveyors and construction professionals.

When estimating the perimeter of an area, distance measuring wheels can provide the needed figures. There are also tools for measuring tall structures, such as measuring sticks and measuring poles. On the other hand, when it comes to measuring angles, you can rely on angle finders and digital angle finders to accomplish the job without any trouble.

Flags and Fences

Marking and fencing tools, such as flags and tapes, are used for several reasons. These include marking underground utilities, aboveground equipment, or simply labeling certain boundaries. The proper use of these tools helps communicate reminders and warnings to people, which is why they are considered to be more than just marking instruments--rather, they are safety supplies that help improve the overall occupational safety of a job site.

Tools like flagging tapes are also useful for other industries. For instance, they are commonly used by foresters to mark trees that people should be wary of. Also, to accommodate some of the more common marking and fencing needs, Engineer Warehouse offers printed-on barricade tapes bearing warnings like “Caution” and “Danger.”

Pavement/Surface Markers

The term “markers” takes an all-new meaning when applied to surveying and construction jobs. While markers are typically thought to be ordinary pencils and pens, surveying and construction jobs require different types of these supplies.

This is why, here on Engineer Warehouse, there are varieties of markers suitable for marking pavements, roads and crossings, survey points, and the like. These markers include chalk line reels, marking wands, marking stencils, chaining pins, marking whiskers, traffic signs, traffic cones, and more. These products are suitable for different uses, so you can choose the most suitable tools for the specific application where you’ll use them.
