Product Description
Milwaukee 7 in. Magnetic Rafter Square
Model Number: MLSQM070
The Milwaukee MLSQM070 is a 7 in. Magnetic Rafter Square — a professional rafter square with integrated rare earth magnets for hands-free attachment to steel framing, metal roofing, structural steel, and ferrous metal surfaces during layout work on steel-frame construction projects. The magnetic base holds the square securely against metal framing members for temporary hands-free attachment, allowing the operator to mark the layout line with both hands while the square maintains its position on the steel surface — a significant practical advantage over non-magnetic squares during steel frame layout work where one hand holding the square and one hand marking is the typical non-magnetic workflow. The 7 in. size is the standard professional rafter square format for framing, stair stringer, and angle layout work, providing the full-coverage marking reference across lumber and steel framing member widths.
Milwaukee engineers the magnetic rafter square with a stronger frame construction for the jobsite durability that active framing work demands — the square must maintain its 90° accuracy and scale legibility through the drops, impacts, and rough surface handling that framing squares experience throughout construction projects. The engraved degree scale, rafter tables, and common conversion scales provide the measurement reference for standard framing calculations directly on the square. The magnetic feature is especially practical for metal building erectors, steel stud framing crews, and any tradesperson who works with steel framing where hands-free square positioning provides meaningful workflow efficiency.
