Escala bem definida e gravada, fácil leitura. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by I***R on 9 November 2022* I've had the square version of this (#17) for about 10 years, using it off and on as a woodworking hobbyist. Having been very pleased with it, I decided to buy a backup just in case. Bought this rounded one (#18), and am pleased. Appears to be the same good quality as my other one, and I figure I'm good for another many years. One critique ... The finish on my old one is not as glossy as this one, and I don't think it's from use. But the difference can be felt in setting the gauge, where the slightly rougher finish helps the gauge keep setting without potentially slipping. ## Frequently Bought Together - General Tools Angle Protractor #17 Stainless Steel Square Head - Measuring Tool for Carpenters & Woodworking Hobbyists - General Tools 88CM Tungsten Carbide Scribe and Magnet, Copper, Replaceable Tip - General Tools 300/1 6-Inch Flex Precision Stainless Steel Ruler, Chrome --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.id/products/51951674-general-tools-17-square-head-metal-protractor-17xxx](https://www.desertcart.id/products/51951674-general-tools-17-square-head-metal-protractor-17xxx) --- *Product available on Desertcart Indonesia* *Store origin: ID* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
