SECO 7301-50 16.4 ft Aluminum Leveling Rod - 10ths Grad

Overview

The SECO 7301-50 Leveling Rod is a lightweight and durable aluminum rod designed for construction leveling, elevation measurements, grade checking, and general surveying work.

Its five-section telescoping design extends to 16.4 feet while collapsing into a more manageable size for transport and storage. The anodized sections are silk-screened with moisture-resistant ink to help keep the engineer’s 10ths graduations clear and readable during regular field use.

Each section uses a sturdy polycarbonate locking button to hold it securely when extended. A height gauge is located on the back of the rod, and each SECO 7301-50 includes a special level and protective carrying bag.

Five-Section Telescoping Design

The SECO 7301-50 uses five telescoping sections to provide a maximum working length of 16.4 feet.

Each section extends independently and locks into position using a durable polycarbonate button. The telescoping design provides the height needed for larger elevation changes while allowing the rod to collapse for easier transportation and storage.

Engineer’s 10ths Graduations

The measuring scale uses engineer’s 10ths graduations, making the rod suitable for decimal-foot elevation and grade measurements.

This graduation format is commonly used for construction surveying, site development, excavation, drainage, and other applications where measurements are recorded in feet and decimal fractions of a foot.

Lightweight Aluminum Construction

The rod is manufactured from a lightweight and durable aluminum alloy, making it easier to carry, extend, and position throughout the workday.

Each telescoping section is anodized to provide additional surface protection and help resist wear during repeated field use.

Moisture-Resistant Measuring Scale

The graduations are silk-screened directly onto the anodized rod sections using moisture-resistant ink.

This construction helps maintain scale visibility when the rod is exposed to damp ground, light rain, humidity, and changing jobsite conditions.

Secure Polycarbonate Section Locks

Each telescoping section uses a sturdy polycarbonate locking button to hold it securely in the extended position.

The positive-locking buttons help prevent the sections from slipping or collapsing while elevation and grade measurements are being taken.

Rear Height Gauge

A height gauge is located on the back of the rod, allowing the operator to check its overall extended height.

This secondary scale provides a convenient reference when extending the rod to a specific working length or confirming the current setup.

Included Level and Protective Bag

The SECO 7301-50 includes a special level to help the operator hold the rod vertically during measurements.

A protective carrying bag is also included to help shield the rod from dirt, abrasion, and damage during transportation and storage.
