SitePro 11-SPR25-C 25-foot SVR Type Fiberglass Grade Rod - Measurement in INCHES

The SitePro SPR25-C is a professional-grade 25-foot fiberglass grade rod engineered for surveyors, crew chiefs, and contractors who demand accurate, reliable elevation readings on demanding jobsites. Featuring crisp inch graduations and a durable SVR-type design, this rod pairs seamlessly with rotary lasers, optical levels, and digital levels to deliver repeatable measurements across grading, excavation, and infrastructure projects.

Product Overview

Built for the realities of modern construction sites, the SPR25-C combines a lightweight fiberglass shell with a distinctive rectangular-oval cross-section that prevents accidental roll-over on uneven terrain. The non-conductive material keeps crews safe near overhead utilities and eliminates the corrosion issues that plague aluminum rods in wet or coastal environments. Whether you are shooting grades on a highway cut, setting invert elevations for a drainage system, or verifying floor flatness on a concrete pour, the SPR25-C delivers the extended reach and measurement clarity the task demands.

Key Specifications

• Model: SitePro 11-SPR25-C
• Total Length: 25 feet (fully extended)
• Graduation Style: SVR-type, inch graduations
• Material: Fiberglass – non-conductive, corrosion-resistant
• Cross-Section: Rectangular-oval anti-roll profile
• Graduation Visibility: High-contrast markings for long-range readability
• Temperature Stability: Dimensionally stable across wide temperature and humidity ranges
• Compatibility: Rotary lasers, optical levels, digital levels, total stations

Key Features

• Anti-Roll Design: Oval rectangular cross-section keeps the rod stationary on grades and sloped surfaces without a rod level or holder
• Non-Conductive Fiberglass: Safe for use in proximity to electrical lines; no static buildup or corrosion risk
• SVR Inch Graduations: Bold, precisely printed markings ensure accurate readings at distances common in laser level and optical level operations
• Extended 25-Foot Range: Handles deep cut-and-fill conditions, tall retaining walls, bridge abutments, and multi-story elevation transfers
• Ergonomic Grip Sections: Oval profile improves hand comfort during extended hold periods on active jobsites
• Weatherproof Construction: Resists moisture absorption and UV degradation for long service life outdoors
• Compact Collapsed Length: Sections collapse for practical transport and storage in a crew truck or job box

Job Applications

Site Grading & Earthwork: The 25-foot reach covers deep cut-and-fill operations on road subgrade, parking lot rough grading, and pond excavation where conventional shorter rods fall short.

Utility & Pipeline Installation: Use the SPR25-C to set invert elevations on storm drain, sanitary sewer, and culvert installations where trench depth requires maximum rod extension.

Structural & Concrete Work: Verify pour elevations, confirm footing depths, and transfer benchmark elevations across multi-level concrete structures with confidence in the rod's dimensional stability.

Laser Level Setups: Pairs directly with rotary laser detectors mounted to the rod for hands-free grade verification on finish grading, flatwork, and landscape grading tasks.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does SVR-type graduation mean on the SPR25-C?

SVR stands for Self-Reading Rod. The graduations are printed in a standardized format that allows the instrument operator to read the rod value directly through the scope or laser detector display without requiring hand signals from the rod person, speeding up workflow on survey and grading crews.

Is the SPR25-C safe to use near power lines?

Yes. The fiberglass construction is non-conductive, making it significantly safer than aluminum rods when working in proximity to overhead electrical utilities. Always follow your site safety plan and maintain required clearance distances regardless of rod material.

Will this rod work with my rotary laser detector?

The SPR25-C is compatible with all standard rod-mount laser detectors. Use a universal clamp or a manufacturer-specific mounting bracket to secure the detector at the desired height on the rod. Refer to your detector manufacturer's mounting instructions for best results.

How many sections does the SPR25-C collapse into for transport?

The SPR25-C collapses into multiple sections for practical transport and storage. Exact collapsed length varies; consult the product datasheet or contact our team at Express Tools for specific collapsed dimension details before ordering if vehicle storage space is a concern.
