Swanson Savage 9" Magnetic Aluminum Pro Grade 4 Vials Torpedo Level, Model TL043M

The Swanson Torpedo level is well made and drop proof where there is no chance of level breaking if it hits an object. The magnet are strong enough for placing level on metal and level stays put. The magnets do not interfere with level so you'll a accurate reading.Level had no lights but bubble is easy to see and read in a fairly lit area. Over-all Swanson level worked great for me.

I really like this level, very well made. A lot better than the old one I had which was a cheap plastic. This one seems very well made, a lot more durable. This is 9 inch long, great for indoor use for me. It has strong magnets really help while working with steel. Overall a very good product.

I needed a small level, and it's magnetic which is sweet for metal studs. I installed a shelf in my unfinished portion of my basement to hold some tools and this held on perfectly to the stud. It's got many different options to view different angles and a small ruler. I plan on using this again for my next project!

I received the SWANSON TOOL CO SAVAGE 9-INCH MAGNETIC ALUMINUM TORPEDO LEVEL with 4 VIALS, MODEL TL043M at no cost. The following is a true and unbiased review. I’m a DIYer and this is one of THE BEST tools I own. It is a QUALITY level, has FOUR VIALS (0, 90, 45 and 30 degrees.), a 7-inch ruler and is magnetic on one side (super-strong NEODYMIUM MAGNETS). Once you pick it up you’ll feel and see the quality of the level. The thing that I most like about it is you can see the vials through the side of the level—not a feature on most levels. Bottom line…this is a very impressive tool. This product and all SAVAGE PRODUCTS are engineered and designed in the USA, but is “Made in China.”

This small torpedo level is outstanding in quality. It has all the tools you need for leveling or finding plumb. It is magnetic on one side and great for leveling u pipe or finding out 1/4” off plpe per ft. The level is within .029 correct. No one is that good to out of level with the naked eye. It has an orange hue to the color so easily seen in tool box or laying around on the job site. It is made of aluminum and is great for for all those jobs needing a smaller level.

I have owned and used dozens of torpedo levels over the years and none have really stood out. That changed when I unboxed this version of the classic level from Swanson Tool, aptly named SAVAGE. The build quality is absolutely the best I have come across in this category. Precision milling of the leveling face leads to .029 degree vial accuracy. It features 4 leveling vials placed in 0 , 90 , 45 and 30 degree orientations, perfect for gauging conduit bends. Nice thick aluminum surfaces with 4 extremely strong counter sunk magnets. I like this aspect a lot after working with cheaper alternatives with surface exposed magnetics that threw off the level after a few years of use and abuse. Perfect for welding, conduit and other steel work. With its Lifetime guarantee, this is one of those tools you can buy, throw in your bag and rely on forever. Definitely worth a little extra cash up front to have a quality, reliable tool.

I have always chosen the less expensive route on levels. Once I seen I had a chance to get this level I jumped on it. The aluminum frame makes the level extremely strong and rugged. The magnets help hold it in place while using it on steel . It also has a groove to help keep it centered on a pipe or round parts. Great product!

Made of super rugged aluminum, this level has all the features you could ask for. It's magnetic, with a very strong magnet, and has a 7" ruler marking on one side. The level includes 4 different vials, 0 degree (flat), 90 degree, 45 degree and the less common 30 degree. It's sharp looking and I love the orange color. This is an awesome level and I highly recommend it!
