A cross line laser level is a tool that projects a horizontal and vertical laser line on surfaces to assist with alignment, leveling and positioning in various construction and DIY projects. It is designed to provide accuracy and efficiency in the layout of tiles, flooring, shelves, cabinets, and other fixtures.
A cross line laser level uses a diode to emit a beam of light that is split into two perpendicular lines by a prism. The laser module then rotates the prism to create a 360-degree coverage of the lines. The tool has a self-leveling mechanism that adjusts the laser lines to the correct level even on uneven surfaces. Some models also have a pulse mode that enables use with a detector in bright outdoor settings.
Cross line laser levels offer several advantages over traditional spirit levels or plumb bobs, such as:
When choosing a cross line laser level, you should consider the following factors:
