Introducing the GLYDER 82: a game-changer in combination squares!

Made the same way for over 100 years, we have flipped the engineering on it’s head to give you a robust British-Made tool that’s built to last. Say goodbye to the traditional fragile pull hook design found on most squares. For the Glyder 82, we have developed a spring-loaded, push-hold mechanism to secure the ruler (patent pending). The push-hold can also be locked into position using the integrated stainless steel thumb screw.

The innovative design allows any standard woodworking or engineer’s rule to be used from 19-30mm wide.  We recommend using a high-quality rule such as the Mitutoyo metric & imperial dual scale 6" and 12" rulers.

The two-part body is precision CNC machined from high-grade T6 aluminium to super tight tolerances. At 200g, the Glyder 82 body is both lightweight and robust. The construction allows easy access to the wear strips for simple and quick calibration, a time-consuming task on standard combination squares.

As well as the normal 90 and 45 degree angles, the body is designed to include a 67.5 (or 22.5) degree option too, giving ever more versatility.

There is an adjustable spring-loaded bearing on the rear of the tool that can be adjusted to lightly press the ruler against the wall of the body for super-precise measurements. This design allowed us to create specific models to suit right and left-handed users.

There is a handy built-in bubble level too and the GLYDER 82 is finished with a protective anodised coating available in your choice of colour combo.
