Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a stair gauge clamp used for in woodworking?
A: A stair gauge clamp attaches to the blade of a framing square and acts as a fixed stop or reference point. This lets you mark consistent rise and run measurements across every stair stringer or rafter without re-measuring each time, dramatically improving accuracy and efficiency on stair-building and rafter-layout projects.
Q: Will this aluminum alloy stair gauge fit my framing square?
A: This stair gauge is designed to work with standard framing square blades. Its hex flat clamp profile and adjustable thumb screw accommodate a wide range of square thicknesses, providing a snug, slip-free fit. If your square blade is within standard dimensions (typically 1/8" thick), this gauge should fit securely.
Q: How many stair gauge clamps come in the package?
A: Each order includes 1 × aluminum alloy stair gauge clamp. For a complete set to mark both rise and run simultaneously on a single framing square, simply order two units.
