Key Features
One Level, Two Sizes Pull it out to the length you need, lock it down, and keep working. The extendable body helps you cover more layouts without hauling multiple spirit levels. Locks Solid The manual lock tightens the extension system so the level stays put while you set, mark, and check. Protected Storage Includes a nylon carrying case to keep the level organized and protected between jobs and in the truck.
Overview
The Stabila 25 inch to 41 inch Type 80T Extendable Spirit Level with Nylon Carrying Case (Model 29441) is an extendable spirit level built for layout, set-ups, and checking level and plumb when a fixed-length level is either too short or too awkward. This is a spirit level designed for adjustable-length leveling and accurate marking.
The whole point of the Type 80T is speed and flexibility: extend it to the length you need and lock it firmly in position. That means fewer trips back to the box for a longer level, and less fighting a long level in tight rooms when you do not need the extra length.
For layout and marking, Stabila builds in a continuous marking and cutting edge so the edge stays uninterrupted as you extend. That matters when you are scribing, scoring, or tracing because you can keep your pencil or knife moving without hitting a gap at the extension joint.
Up top, there is a printed measuring scale for quick layout and set-ups, and the level has one precision-machined measuring surface to help it sit consistently on your work. On the backside, rubber feet are there to grip the wall and reduce slipping when you are working against a vertical surface.
Accuracy is the reason you buy a Stabila. In normal position, accuracy is rated at ± 1/32 inch at 72 inches and in reverse position at ± 3/64 inch at 72 inches. In the extended position, accuracy is rated at ± 1/16 inch at 60 inches in both normal and reverse positions. The level includes one horizontal vial and one plumb vial.
This kit is a solid fit for remodeling, trim work, and general construction where you bounce between short checks and longer layouts. If you do a lot of scribing, tile layout, or fixture installs and you like to work clean, the extendable format saves time without giving up the feel of a real box level.
Extend, Lock, and Mark Clean
When you are laying out lines on a wall or panel, the extendable body and lock let you set the length you need and keep it rigid while you work.
- Manual lock tightens the extendable system to hold position
- Continuous marking and cutting edge stays uninterrupted as the level extends
Jobsite-Friendly Grip Against Walls
On installs where the level is pressed against a surface, the back-side rubber feet help it stay put, so you are not chasing it around while you check and adjust.
- Rubber feet on the backside help reduce slipping and protect surfaces
- One precision-machined measuring surface for consistent contact
Adjustable Length for Tight Openings
Being able to run shorter keeps the tool manageable in small spaces, then you can extend when you need more span for layout and checking.
- Extendable length range: 25 inches to 41 inches
- Printed measuring scale on top helps with quick set-ups

- Who it’s for: Remodelers and installers doing layout, set-ups, and scribing where the work size changes all day.
