The Fowler Wyler cross level is a spirit level with two vials set perpendicular to each other for simultaneous leveling in two directions, and two mounting holes for attaching to machinery and other equipment. The vials are made of glass to resist scratching and provide clear readings. The level is available in a 3.15″ long model that has a sensitivity of 0.001″/10″ (0.1 mm/m) or 20 seconds, and in a 6″ long model that has a sensitivity of 0.0002″/10″ (0.02 mm/m) or 4 seconds. The level has a cast iron body for durability. Levels are used in the building trades, engineering, surveying, and metalworking, among other applications.
Levels are instruments that are used to determine the true horizontal or vertical plane of a surface. The most common type of level is the spirit level, or bubble level. Spirit levels have a liquid-filled, bowed tube (also called a vial) with a bubble that moves when slight adjustments are made to the level. When the bubble settles between marked points on the vial, it indicates that a surface is horizontally or vertically straight. Levels can have one or more vials to determine the horizontal plane, the vertical plane, or various points between, such as a 45-degree angle, simultaneously. Some levels include a laser line indicator that projects a horizontal or vertical beam on a surface. Bullseye levels, or surface levels, are circular, flat-bottomed spirit levels that determine whether a surface plane is level. Machinists’ levels are made of metal and have surfaces designed specifically for rugged use in a machine shop or tool room. Levels can range from highly-complex and accurate machines, such as those used in the surveying and construction industry, to precision instruments used in carpentry and other building trades, to simple, pocket-sized devices for do-it-yourself projects.
