Leveling Rods and Tripods
Land surveying and other outdoor operations necessitates the use of leveling rods and tripods. Flat heads with 5/8–11 mounting threads are available on heavy-duty, standard-duty, and quick-clamp tripods. Tripods may be adjusted to different heights and collapse to make transporting and storing them easier. Fiberglass, metal, and telescopic rods are all alternatives for grade rods or leveling rods.
