Water Level Kapro Apollo 60 cm 985-41P

The Kapro Apollo Spirit Level with handles (985XL) is a versatile box-style level that helps with installing straight and slanted surfaces in construction, installation, and interior work. At its core, it has three fixed acrylic vials (horizontal, vertical, and 45°), with a nominal accuracy of ±0.5 mm/m. This covers common leveling needs, from aligning surfaces, frames, machine bases, and equipment mounts to checking angles.

The patented Plumb Site® Dual-View™ solution speeds up vertical measurements. It lets you read the vertical vial straight on from the front without looking from the side, which cuts down on parallax errors and makes installs easier in tight spots like doorways, frame structures, and risers. When the vertical is visible from the front, alignment is straightforward even when working alone.

The horizontal vial supports basic leveling, and the 45° vial speeds up setting moldings, railings, and slanted surfaces. Apollo can be flipped completely upside down, so the same tool works for floor and ceiling leveling, plus checking the parallelism of beams' top and bottom surfaces.

The base is precision-machined, which improves contact with the measuring surface and reduces slipping, especially on hard, smooth bases. The ends have caps that cushion impacts and help keep the tool functional on job sites.

The Ergo Grip™ handles are secure and comfy to use even in long installs. They make it easy to handle the level with one hand and provide a steady grip for alignments done overhead.

Uses:

Drywall and interior cladding – Straightening wall frames, studs, and paneling requires repeated vertical and horizontal checks. Plumb Site® Dual-View™ lets you read the vertical straight from the front, so you can easily confirm alignment without leaning over from the side. The machined base gives better grip on drywall, painted surfaces, and metal frames, making solo measuring easier.
Pipe, HVAC, and duct installs – Aligning pipes, ducts, and risers needs control over both vertical and horizontal. The handles give a firm hold, and the fully flippable frame allows floor and ceiling leveling with the same tool. The magnetic version sticks to steel surfaces, keeping the measurement in place while your hands are free to connect fittings.
Door and window installs – For leveling frames and thresholds, the front-view of the vertical vial reduces reading errors and speeds up adjustments. The 45° vial also helps confirm slopes for trim and window sills. The handles support a controlled grip when lightly pressing the frame into position.
Wood framing and interior – Leveling counters, shelves, cabinets, and furniture requires quick repeated measurements in different positions. The handled frame is easy to place and move around, and the machined base improves contact against wood. Flipping the level upside down lets you check the opposite edge's straightness without switching tools.
Electrical and fastening work – Installing outlet rows, cable ducts, rails, and troughs needs repeatable measurements. Plumb Site® makes vertical lining up easier, and the 45° vial supports setting angled cable guides.

Features:

Accuracy: ±0.5 mm/m – Good for general construction and install measurements without a separate calibration tool.
Vials: Fixed acrylic vials (horizontal, vertical, 45°) – Covers the basics for straight and angled installs.
Plumb Site® Dual-View™: Front-view of the vertical vial – Reduces parallax errors and speeds up vertical setups.
Machined base: Better contact with the measuring surface – Steadier position and more precise readings.
Handled frame: Ergo Grip™ handles – Secure hold and easy handling, even working overhead.
Fully flippable frame: Allows floor and ceiling leveling plus checking top and bottom surfaces side by side.
45° vial: Speeds up setting slanted trim, railings, and tilted surfaces.
End caps: Cushion bumps and protect the frame during use.

Kapro Apollo Spirit Level instructions:

Before use: Make sure the base and target surface are clean of dust and debris. Check that the vials' bubbles move freely.
Horizontal leveling: Place the level on the surface and adjust until the bubble settles between the center lines. Repeat at different spots if needed to confirm the whole length is straight.
Vertical check: Place the level against the object's side and read the vertical vial from the Plumb Site® window straight on. Fine-tune until the bubble centers.
45° angle check: Align the object with the vial's 45° marks. Handy for trim work and angled installs.
Flipped measurement: Turn the level upside down when measuring ceilings or overhead structures – the vials work the same way flipped.
Flip test for accuracy: Mark the bubble's position in a horizontal measurement, flip the level 180° to the same spot, and confirm the bubble stops at the same center point.
Maintenance: Clean with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid solvents that can fog the acrylic. Store dry and protected from direct UV light.

Warnings:

Don't use the product near live wires without proper precautions.
Fall risk: Avoid reaching on scaffolds and ladders – always use a stable work position and fall protection if needed.
Don't expose vials to strong solvents or extreme heat.
Check functionality after a drop or hard impact before continuing work.
Keep out of reach of children.

Frequently Asked Questions, FAQ:
Does Apollo have a front-readable vertical vial?
Yes. Plumb Site® Dual-View™ gives a direct front view of the vertical vial, making vertical alignments easier.

What's the stated accuracy?
±0.5 mm/m. This covers typical construction and installation leveling needs.

Can the tool be used upside down?
Yes. The design is fully flippable, so floor and ceiling leveling work with the same tool.

What's the difference between the 45° vial and basic vials?
The 45° vial speeds up setting slanted structures and trim without a separate angle tool, while the horizontal and vertical vials handle basic leveling.
