Spectra Precision 2162 Heavy-Duty Elevating Aluminum Tripod
The Spectra Precision 2162 Elevating Aluminum Tripod provides a stable, adjustable platform for laser levels and other instruments using a standard 5/8-11 mounting thread.
Designed for professional field use, the tripod combines a heavy-duty aluminum construction with an elevating base and telescoping legs that allow the working height to be adjusted from approximately 4 ft 3 in to 7 ft 6 in.
Its extended height range makes the 2162 a practical option for construction layout, leveling, surveying, engineering, landscaping, and other applications where additional instrument elevation or flexible positioning is required.
Adjustable Working Height
The tripod extends from:
4 ft 3 in to 7 ft 6 in (130 cm to 228 cm)
The elevating base provides additional control over instrument height, allowing operators to make positioning adjustments without relying solely on the tripod legs.
Standard 5/8-11 Instrument Mount
A 5/8-11 threaded mounting connection provides compatibility with many commonly used professional laser levels and field instruments.
The flat-head design creates a straightforward mounting surface for compatible equipment.
Telescoping Aluminum Legs
Each leg can be extended independently to help position and level the tripod across varying terrain.
The aluminum construction provides a balance of field durability and portability, making the tripod suitable for routine transportation between jobsites.
Stable Field Setup
Spiked feet help secure the tripod when working on soil, gravel, and other outdoor surfaces.
Screw-attached hinges add structural support to the tripod assembly and are designed for repeated professional use.
Durable Finish
The aluminum tripod incorporates electrostatically powder-painted cast components, providing a durable finish designed to withstand regular field handling and exposure to jobsite conditions.
Easier Jobsite Transport
A heavy-duty poly-webbing shoulder strap is included, making the tripod easier to carry between setups or transport around larger jobsites.
