Angle gauges are used to accurately measure the exact angles on items such as hand rails, all interior or exterior angles, roof pitches, staircase and balustrades, shower and window angles and steel fabrication angles.
Primarily, they are used in the building construction industry and they come in pocket size models or the higher end professional models.
They come in two different styles which are the mechanical style or the digital style.

Angle Gauge Buying Tips
Once again I am seriously tempted to tell you to buy the cheapest type of angle gauge you can possibly find.
However there are some differences in quality, and by spending extra, the quality does increase significantly. This is especially important when it comes to very accurate measurements.
Most buyers commented that they liked a display that will show the angle set, without starting from zero or needing to be closed before being powered up.
Our number one ranked Bosch model has sold a lot, has a 94% satisfaction rate and although expensive, buyers really like the high quality of this angle measuring tool.
