Perfect heights. Every time!

The use of a ruler to check gravel and sand depths often results in slightly different measurements along a single edge. The Quick-E-Gauge allows the installer to quickly, easily and perfectly set the height of the base or setting bed every time. The screeding edge of the Quick-E-Gauge is adjustable for the different thicknesses of pavers.

When it comes to installing pavers, accuracy is vital.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Quick-E-Gauge close up imageAfter determining what thickness of paver you are using, simply loosen the knobs on the gauge and slide the plates up or down until the desired measurement (in millimeters) appears in one of the view panels. Line the points of the opposite window up with the mark that makes the two plates parallel. Bring your compacted base material close to its finished grade. Now place the side of the Quick-E-Gauge that says "BASE" onto the fixed surface you want to abutt. Strike off the gravel to produce a perfect final grade.

Next, set your 1" screed pipe, and check your height using the opposite side of the Quick-E-Gauge. The bottom of the sand side of the gauge should just touch the top of your screed rails. After the sand is roughly screeded, go back and use the "SAND" side of the gauge to be sure that your heights are perfect. Please note that the measurements are calculated for use with 1" screed rails. If you choose a different diameter screed rail, you will have to adjust the height of your Quick-E-Gauge accordingly.

Ask for the Quick-E-GAUGE at your local Techo-Bloc dealer.
