This Empire Level 8-inch etched stainless steel try square features an aluminum billet handle that's designed to stand up to heavy-duty workplace conditions. The stainless steel blade is resistant to rust and corrosion so you can use it in any weather. Since the markings are etched into the Empire Level durable try square's blade, they won't fade over time.
