Line blocks for mason's line

These poplar hardwood line blocks come as a pair measuring three and three-quarter inches. They are designed to hold mason's line securely during layout work. Bricklayers and masons use them to keep courses straight and level on the job site.

Pair frees both hands for layout

The two blocks tension the line without needing a helper to hold the ends. Poplar construction resists splitting when driven into mortar joints. Builders who need adjustable metal clamps or longer blocks for wide walls will need a different style.

Questions about this item

How long can the poplar hardwood line blocks hold a mason's line before the wood wears?

The poplar hardwood construction resists abrasion from daily mason's line tension, and the two-piece set lets you rotate blocks to extend service life on the job site.

Do the blocks get hot or heavy when used continuously in direct sun?

At 0.2 lb total weight the pair stays light all day, and wood does not absorb heat like metal, so the blocks remain comfortable to handle in full sun.
