Precision Stair Gauge & Square Assist Clamp

Stop fighting with your tape measure and square. This compact aluminum jig locks onto your carpenter's square to provide a stable, perpendicular reference point for perfect 90-degree cuts every time. Ideal for stair stringers, framing, and repetitive layout work.

CNC Aluminum Universal Fit Carabiner Included

Perfectly Perpendicular Every Time

Manual layout often leads to drift and inaccurate cuts. By clamping this gauge directly onto the edge of your speed square or framing square, you create a rigid fence that stays true. The tall body design ensures your tool remains fully perpendicular to the wood surface, giving you confidence in every mark.

  • Stable Reference: Eliminates hand wobble when marking lines.
  • Repeatable Results: Set it once and glide across multiple boards for identical measurements.

Built for Job Site Durability

Crafted from CNC-machined 6061 aluminum, these gauges are lightweight yet incredibly tough. The anodized finish resists rust and wear, ensuring they look new even after months of use in sawdust and moisture. The knurled thumb screw allows for tight lockingā€”even when wearing thick work glovesā€”keeping your ruler firmly in place during operation.

Works With Your Favorite Tools

You don't need to buy a new set of rulers. These auxiliary clamps are designed to fit most standard carpenter squares, including Speed Squares, Rafter Squares, and Framing Squares. They act as a universal adapter, turning any straightedge into a reliable guide for circular saws or pencil marking.

  • Saw Guide: Use with a straightedge to guide a circular saw for straight crosscuts.
  • Layout Tool: Perfect for laying out stair treads, rafters, and deck joists.

Simple Setup, Fast Workflow

Getting started takes seconds. Slide the gauge onto your square, adjust to your desired offset, and lock it down. Itā€™s designed to streamline your workflow by removing complex calculations and adjustments during repetitive tasks.

  1. Insert your carpenter's square into the slot.
  2. Tighten the red knob to clamp the square securely.
  3. Align against the wood edge and mark or cut.

Clip It On, Never Lose It

Small tools have a way of disappearing into sawdust piles. We include a custom mounting plate and carabiner clip so you can attach the entire set to your belt loop or tool bag. Keep your layout tools within arm's reach and ready for action.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this come with a ruler or square?
No, this product is an assist clamp/jig only. It is designed to be used with your existing carpenter's square (Speed Square, Framing Square, etc.).
Will it fit my specific brand of square?
It fits most standard thickness squares. However, if you have a very thick or oddly shaped handle on your square, please check the dimensions of the slot before purchasing.
Can I use this with a circular saw?
Yes, it works excellently as a stop block or fence when used in conjunction with a straightedge guide to ensure square cuts on lumber.
Is the metal magnetic?
The main body is made of aluminum, which is not magnetic. This prevents interference with compasses or sensitive measuring tools nearby.
