The Leica 746158 Trivet Assembly is the purpose-built mounting solution for Leica Piper series pipe lasers, giving underground contractors a rock-solid, repeatable setup on any jobsite surface. Whether you're shooting grade from the invert, a bench, or the trench floor, this trivet and integrated mounting bracket combination locks your laser in place so every shot counts. When fractions of a percent matter on a gravity sewer run, you can't afford a wobbly base.
Overview & Jobsite Applications
Designed exclusively for compatibility with the Leica Piper pipe laser family, the 746158 Trivet Assembly combines a heavy-duty three-point trivet base with a precision mounting bracket. The low-profile design keeps the laser centered and level even on uneven invert surfaces, while the robust bracket hardware eliminates any play or creep during extended setups. Crews running sanitary sewer, storm drain, culvert, or directional bore tie-in work will find this assembly speeds up their workflow and eliminates the improvised setups that cost time and accuracy.

- Repeatable setup positioning speeds production on multi-manhole runs
Job Applications
Gravity Sewer Installation: Set the trivet assembly on the pipe invert between manholes for a stable, centered laser beam that holds grade through the entire run — no kickouts, no re-shoots.
Storm Drain & Culvert Work: The three-point base adapts to round pipe invert geometry, giving crews a consistent starting platform regardless of pipe diameter when using a compatible Piper laser.
Trench Floor Grading: When shooting from the trench floor rather than the invert, the flat-contact trivet feet provide a non-slip base that stays put in muddy or wet conditions.
Inspection & As-Built Verification: Use the 746158 assembly to position your Piper laser for grade verification checks during inspection phases — quick to set up, quick to break down.
