Quick Facts — 15730 Straight edge
- Model: 15730
- EAN: 5903755157300
- Type: Straight edge with 2 vials
- Length: 3000 mm
- Accuracy: 0.5 mm/1 m
- Material: Aluminium
Aluminium straight edge with a length of 3000 mm and two vials for checking level and plumb in bricklaying and rendering, with an accuracy of 0.5 mm/1 m. Proline 15730 is a rigid aluminium profile that gives a long reference across a full wall section.
The vials are UV resistant and come with a horizontal indicator or a combined horizontal and vertical indicator.
Key benefits of straight edge 15730
The straight edge gives a straight reference of 3000 mm with 0.5 mm/1 m accuracy, so deviations show up across the whole surface instead of at single points. What defines it:
- Aluminium profile weighing 2.650 kg
- Two vials for checking level and plumb
- UV resistant vials that stay legible outdoors
- Accuracy of 0.5 mm/1 m
Where straight edge 15730 performs best
The straight edge is used where long level or vertical surfaces must be checked, for example when bricking and rendering walls. At 3000 mm it covers a full wall section in one pass, which is faster than moving a short spirit level repeatedly.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Does straight edge 15730 work for checking vertical surfaces?
Yes, straight edge 15730 has two vials and an indicator that is either horizontal or combined horizontal and vertical, so plumb can be checked. The 3000 mm length and 2.650 kg weight make it heavier to hold upright than a short spirit level.
What sets straight edge 15730 apart from other spirit levels?
Straight edge 15730 is a 3000 mm aluminium profile with 0.5 mm/1 m accuracy, giving a reference across a whole wall section. A short spirit level has to be repositioned several times to cover the same distance.
