Bosch floor surface laser for even floors

Home » CORPORATE NEWS » Bosch floor surface laser for even floors

The GSL 2 Professional is ideal for site managers, surveyors, and all flooring trades.
This means that professional traders now have a fast and accurate method to check of flatness of floors. Traditionally floor surfaces were checked using the point-by-point method, which was time-consuming and labour-intensive.

“The GSL 2 Professional enables you to check floors completely in virtually no time at all,” Bosch Measuring Tools Brand Manager Sebastian Johannes comments. The tool is ideal for anyone working with floor surfaces, including composite floor layers, tilers, parquet layers, drywallers, and surveyors.

The importance of accuracy in this regard is that if, upon inspection, a tradesperson discovers surface irregularities that exceed permitted tolerances, he is obligated to report these immediately in terms of standards and codes of practice. However, inspections are often conducted only sporadically, or not at all. This is now a thing of the past thanks to the GSL 2 Professional.

The benefits of the floor surface laser from Bosch are that there is no longer a need to bend down, re-measure, or to get someone to assist you. A single tradesperson can check large surfaces comfortably, with even an option of remote control. The floor surface laser allows a tradesperson to see surface irregularities at a glance, meaning that the inspection process is 100% reliable and millimetre-accurate.

Johannes explains that the floor surface laser projects two lines onto the floor. If the surface is flat, the lines will be exactly on top of each other, visible only as a single line. If the floor is uneven in any way, these two lines will deviate from each other.

The GSL 2 Professional is supplied with four AA 1.5 V batteries, a target, laser viewing glasses to enhance the visibility of the laser beams, and an L-BOXX carry case made from robust plastic for safe and convenient transport.
