Slim’s inventory includes line lasers, rotary lasers, point and plumb lasers, laser distance meters, spirit levels, electronic levels, squares, plumb tools, detectors, tripods, multimeters, clamp meters, voltage testers, and related accessories.
Brands, models, ranges, accuracy ratings, accessories, and quantities may vary by store.
Find laser levels for alignment, layout, installation, finish work, framing, cabinetry, tile, electrical, plumbing, and remodeling.
Slim’s inventory includes:
Bosch, DEWALT, Milwaukee, and Stabila laser systems are represented in the inventory.
Before selecting a laser, compare the number and orientation of projected lines, working range, accuracy, visibility, self-leveling range, detector compatibility, mounting options, and power source.
Point lasers project reference points for transferring positions, establishing plumb, and aligning components between floors, walls, and ceilings.
Slim’s inventory includes three-point and five-point lasers, plumb-bob laser kits, and models that combine points with horizontal or cross-line references.
These tools may support:
Confirm the number and direction of points, stated accuracy, operating range, mounting system, and visibility before purchasing.
Rotary lasers create a reference plane for larger construction, concrete, grading, excavation, elevation, and exterior layout applications.
Slim’s inventory includes rotary laser systems from Bosch, DEWALT, and Stabila, including horizontal, horizontal-and-vertical, red-beam, and green-beam configurations.
Depending on the model, kits may include receivers, remotes, tripods, grade rods, batteries, chargers, and carrying cases.
When comparing rotary lasers, consider:
Not every rotary laser is intended for grading, machine control, or every outdoor application. Match the product specifications to the project tolerances and working conditions.
Find electronic distance-measuring tools for estimating, layout, inspection, installation, and property maintenance.
Slim’s inventory includes Bosch laser distance meters with published ranges from compact indoor models through longer-range outdoor systems.
Depending on the model, available functions may include:
Bright sunlight, reflective surfaces, obstructions, and environmental conditions can affect measurement performance. Compare the working range, stated accuracy, display, measuring modes, environmental rating, and connectivity requirements.
Slim’s carries traditional levels for checking horizontal, vertical, angled, and plumb surfaces.
The inventory includes:
Empire, Stabila, Milwaukee, Johnson, and other brands are represented.
Select a level according to the required length, available working space, surface material, magnetic or nonmagnetic use, vial configuration, visibility, durability, and stated accuracy.
Extendable plate levels can provide a long reference for framing, door and window installation, walls, large openings, and other construction applications.
Slim’s inventory includes extendable models from Stabila, Johnson, and Plumbit in several working ranges.
When choosing an extendable level, consider:
Digital levels combine a traditional level reference with an electronic angle display.
Slim’s inventory includes Stabila electronic levels in multiple lengths and environmental ratings.
Depending on the model, features may include:
Review the stated accuracy, operating range, calibration procedure, environmental rating, battery requirements, and storage instructions before use.
Find squares and manual layout tools for framing, carpentry, drywall, roofing, fabrication, installation, and finish work.
Slim’s inventory includes:
Empire, Milwaukee, Johnson, Stanley, and other layout-tool manufacturers are represented.
Laser systems may require compatible accessories to improve visibility, extend working range, or position the tool.
Slim’s inventory includes:
Detector compatibility is model-specific. Provide the laser manufacturer and exact model number when checking accessories.
A detector from one laser family may not work with another brand, beam type, or operating frequency.
Slim’s inventory also includes electronic test tools for electricians, HVAC technicians, maintenance teams, equipment service, and property inspection.
Find digital multimeters and clamp meters for approved electrical testing and troubleshooting applications.
Fluke and Amprobe products represented in the inventory include:
Select electrical test equipment according to the measurement functions, voltage and current ranges, category rating, accuracy, environment, and professional requirements.
Slim’s inventory includes noncontact voltage detectors, voltage and continuity testers, and socket or GFCI testers from Fluke, Amprobe, and Milwaukee.
A noncontact detector, socket tester, or basic voltage tester does not replace every measurement function of a properly rated multimeter.
Use only test equipment with the correct category rating, range, condition, and manufacturer approval for the work.
Available electronic measuring products represented in the inventory include infrared thermometers and digital psychrometers for approved temperature, humidity, and dew-point applications.
These tools may support HVAC work, inspection, maintenance, troubleshooting, and environmental checks.
Confirm the required measurement range, accuracy, sensor type, response time, operating conditions, and calibration requirements before purchasing.

Measurement and testing tools should be inspected and maintained according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Check the housing, vials, display, mounting points, batteries, test leads, and accessories before use. A tool that has been dropped, damaged, stored improperly, or exposed to severe conditions may require an accuracy check, calibration, repair, or replacement.
Do not rely on a measuring or electrical test tool when its condition or accuracy is uncertain.
Never stare directly into a laser beam or intentionally aim it at another person. Secure the tool and mounting equipment before operation, review the laser classification, and follow all manufacturer and jobsite safety requirements.
Electrical test equipment should be used only by people qualified for the work. Confirm that the tester, meter, leads, and accessories carry the appropriate ratings for the system and environment.
A noncontact voltage detector should not be treated as the only method of verifying that electrical equipment is de-energized when workplace procedures require additional testing.
