Spectra Precision HV1305C-SC-1 Horiz/Vert - Interior/Exterior RED Beam Laser Package with HL760 Receiver, Remote, TENTHS Rod, Tripod and Large Case - Rechargeable

The Spectra Precision HV1305C-SC-1 is a professional-grade dual-axis rotary laser package engineered for contractors who demand accurate horizontal and vertical layout performance on demanding jobsites. Whether you're plumbing walls, leveling floors, establishing column lines, or setting grades across an entire structure, this self-leveling RED beam system delivers the consistency and range you need. The SC-1 package ships complete and job-ready, including the HL760 laser receiver, RC1402N remote control, GR151 15-foot tenths rod, aluminum tripod, rechargeable battery system, and rugged protective carrying case — everything required to set up and start working the moment you arrive on site.

Dual-Axis RED Beam Rotary Laser Overview

The HV1305C operates on two independent planes simultaneously — horizontal and vertical — making it one of the most versatile rotary lasers available for interior commercial and residential construction. The RED beam rotating head produces a 360-degree reference plane in either axis, while the variable rotation speed allows contractors to slow the beam for enhanced visibility or increase speed for a solid reference line appearance. The self-leveling system automatically compensates for minor setup inconsistencies, reducing setup time and eliminating costly leveling errors. With a working range of up to 2,000 feet in diameter when used with the included HL760 detector, the HV1305C is equally capable on tight interior layouts and large open exterior applications.

Job Applications

Interior Wall Layout & Plumb Transfer: Use the vertical beam to establish accurate wall lines, door and window openings, and plumb reference planes across multi-story interiors — no chalk line required.

Floor Leveling & Concrete Flatwork: The horizontal plane gives concrete and flooring crews a continuous 360-degree level reference for screeding, pouring slabs, and setting floor system heights across large open areas.

Steel & Structural Column Alignment: Align structural columns, curtainwall systems, and framing grids using both the horizontal and vertical axes simultaneously, reducing layout crew size and improving accuracy.

Site Grading & Elevation Control: Paired with the GR151 rod and HL760 receiver, the HV1305C provides reliable elevation control for rough grading, footing elevation checks, and utility line slopes on exterior sites.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the HV1305C be used outdoors in daylight?

Yes. While RED beam lasers are less visible in bright sunlight than GREEN beam models, the included HL760 receiver detects the beam at distances up to 2,000 feet in full daylight, making the HV1305C fully capable for outdoor grading and elevation work.

Does this laser self-level automatically?

Yes. The HV1305C features automatic self-leveling within a ±5° range. If the instrument is set up beyond that compensating range, it will lock out and alert the operator, preventing inaccurate work.

Can I control the laser from a distance without walking back to the instrument?

Yes. The included RC1402N remote control allows the operator to adjust rotation speed, switch between horizontal and vertical modes, and power the unit on or off from a distance — a significant time-saver on large jobsites.

Is the HV1305C compatible with other Spectra Precision accessories?

Yes. The HV1305C uses a standard 5/8-11 tripod thread and is compatible with a range of Spectra Precision and industry-standard accessories including grade rods, tripods, and wall mounts available from Express Tools.
