Product Description
Milwaukee 7 in. Rafter Square
Model Number: MLSQ070
The Milwaukee MLSQ070 is a 7 in. Rafter Square — a professional-grade combination square and angle-finding tool for the layout work of framing, stair stringers, roof rafters, and general construction angle marking that makes the rafter square one of the most-used tools in residential and commercial wood-frame construction. The 7 in. size is the standard professional rafter square format — large enough for full-contact marking along common framing lumber widths while compact enough for comfortable one-hand carry and belt attachment throughout a full day of framing layout work. Milwaukee engineers the rafter square with a stronger frame construction than standard aluminum rafter squares — the thicker body material and reinforced corners maintain the square's dimensional accuracy through the drops, impacts, and rough handling of active framing work where rafter squares are regularly dropped on concrete slabs and hard surfaces.
The rafter square's engraved degree scale, rafter tables, and common/hip-valley conversion scales provide the measurement reference needed for accurate rafter length calculation, stair stringer layout, roof pitch marking, and general angle layout without calculator or separate reference materials for the standard framing calculations that carpenters perform repeatedly throughout framing projects. Milwaukee's diamond coating or protective finish on the scale markings maintains legibility through the concrete dust, wood debris, and rough surface contact of active framing use where standard printed scales wear off quickly. The Milwaukee rafter square meets the layout accuracy requirements that professional framing work demands for structural plumb, level, and pitch accuracy.
