Questions and Answers
How short does the SitePro 11-813L-C collapse?
The 11-813L-C has 5 telescoping sections and collapses to 38.6 in (98 cm), the shortest rod in the SitePro aluminum line. It weighs 3.15 lb (1.43 kg), so it rides behind a truck seat and fits where a 16 ft rod will not.
What graduations does the 11-813L-C have?
The front face reads feet / inches / 8ths and the back face reads feet / inches / 8ths. Need tenths instead? The 11-813L-T is the same 13 ft rod with a feet / 10ths / 100ths scale.
What is the scale on the back for?
The backside measuring scale lets you read a direct height measurement at eye level, without extending a tape or doing extra math.
What comes with the 11-813L-C?
The rod, an attachable rod level (bubble vial) that clips into a slot on the rod for quick plumbing, and a carrying case with an accessory pouch and shoulder strap.
Aluminum or fiberglass: which rod should I buy?
Aluminum is light, low cost and collapses short. Aluminum conducts electricity, so near overhead power lines choose a non-conductive fiberglass rod such as the SitePro SCR series.
Is the 11-813L-C the rod SitePro puts in its kits?
Yes. SitePro lists the 11-813L as the standard leveling rod included with its instrument kits.
How fast does it ship?
It ships direct from SitePro, usually within 24 to 48 hours of your order, often the same day when ordered early. Need it faster? Choose express shipping at checkout.
