Stanley 0-47-440 225g Brass Plumb Bob

Weight: 225 g; material: brass with a gold finish; through-hole design for easy string threading and retrieval; model number noted as 0-47-973 in the description; knurled thumb rest for safe handling.

The through-hole design allows the plumb line to pass through or be threaded through the body, enabling easy attachment and retrieval of the line and reducing snagging during setup.

1) Thread the line through the top hole and secure the knot or tensioning method you use. 2) Attach the line to your layout point or reference. 3) Let the bob settle and hang vertically. 4) Read the plumb line and adjust as needed.

Common uses include carpentry and framing checks, masonry layout, surveying tasks, truing frames or surfaces, and any task requiring a stable vertical reference.

A 225 g weight provides a stable, quick-settling reference that minimizes sway. Heavier plumb bobs resist wind and movement, improving vertical accuracy for longer lines and outdoor use.

Keep it dry and wipe it after use to reduce tarnish. Brass naturally develops a patina over time, which is normal. Store in a dry place away from moisture and harsh chemicals.

Yes. It’s designed to work with standard plumb lines; the through-hole design supports typical threading and attachment of common lines used with Stanley tools.
