Empire Level 841.6 6-Inch Magnet Billet Torpedo Level

Well built level. The best reason to buy this level is the strong magnets. If you are like me, I knock my level off things all the time and the strength of these magnets has definitely reduced that.

I love this new level. Its solid for one. The other level that I had was also an empire but a bigger type that I really liked. This one has 3 neodynium magnets that hold strong when leveling pipe or strut. its well made and accurate too. The slimmer profile lets it fit in my tool-pouch easily and the magnets are great for picking up metal shavings or for temporarily magnetizing other tools like screwdrivers and such. Other cheaper magnets have a magnetic plasticized strip that doesnt hold well after a while and gets gouged up. Serious about pipe? Invest in a better level.

The 8.5 aluminum Empire torpedo level is a standard in the field of heavy commercial construction. One of the most common torpedo levels of the type its ubiquitous presence in the feild is a direct result of superior durability and accuracy. Empire has a range of great professional grade tools and this level is no acception.

Your site depicts this level as Made in USA. However when I received it, the package states that only the spirit bubbles are from USA. The rest is made and put together in Taiwan.

Tough to beat

made overseas

This level is advertised as being Made in USA. It is NOT. The package clearly says Vials made in USA, Body made in Taiwan, Assembled in Taiwan A case of false advertising and the main reason for the middling rating. The level looks stout enough but then so do the similar ones from the competition. At least PART of this one is USA made so I suppose thats a plus of sorts but they should advertise it as such, not as a Made in America product.

Great item and well made at a very good price. Like the ones in the good stores but a better price and delivered.

seems well made, good color and feel. I havent confirmed its accuracy yet, however, and that is the reason dêtre, so take my 4 stars with a grain of salt.

Very good level
