Bosch GR 500 Measuring Rod, 5m Aluminum, E-Graduation

Bosch GR 500 Measuring Rod

The Bosch GR 500 Measuring rod provides professional-grade elevation measurement for site leveling and surveying applications. This high-grade aluminum staff extends to a maximum height of five meters, making it suitable for significant vertical grade changes. It integrates seamlessly with optical levels and laser receivers used across civil engineering and construction sites.

Built for the Job

Professional surveyors and site supervisors rely on this leveling staff for establishing benchmarks, checking foundation depths, and verifying drainage slopes. The five-section telescopic design allows for rapid deployment in the field and easy height adjustment. This surveying accessory handles the rigors of muddy excavations and dusty environments without the locking mechanisms seizing. When fully retracted, the tool remains compact enough for secure transport in standard service vehicles or site offices.

• General site leveling and height transfer for foundations.

• Grading for landscaping, drainage, and road construction.

• Setting benchmarks alongside optical levels or laser receivers.
