The DW0851 is a combination spot and horizontal line laser that projects 5 bright spot beams for accurate plumb and horizontal point transfer. A rear-projecting horizontal line aids in additional leveling applications. Accuracy is ±1/8-in. at 30 ft (±3.2 mm at 30.5 m). Powered by standard AA batteries with no charger required. The compact design works for electrical runs, plumbing alignment, and leveling reference lines in walls and ceilings. Ideal for electricians, plumbers, and drywall contractors. Backed by DEWALT's 3-year limited tool warranty.
What does the DW0851 project?
The DW0851 projects 5 spot beams for plumb and horizontal point transfer, plus a rear horizontal line for leveling reference. This combination is especially useful for running conduit and pipe in straight, level runs.
How accurate is the DW0851?
The DW0851 offers ±1/8-in. accuracy at 30 ft (equivalent to ±3.2 mm at 30.5 m), which is sufficient for most rough and finish construction tasks.
What batteries does the DW0851 use?
The DW0851 runs on standard AA batteries. No charger is needed, making it simple to power on any jobsite.
Is the DW0851 self-leveling?
The DW0851 uses a pendulum leveling system that compensates automatically when placed on a relatively level surface. If the tilt is outside the leveling range, the unit indicates an out-of-level condition.
Who is the DW0851 best suited for?
The DW0851 is particularly well-suited for electricians running conduit in straight lines, plumbers aligning pipes, and drywall contractors needing consistent reference points on walls and ceilings.
Can the DW0851 be used with a tripod?
Yes, the DW0851 has standard thread mounting for use with laser tripods and positioning accessories.
