The DeWalt XMS26CHALK chalk line set is built for long, straight layout marks across construction, carpentry, flooring, roofing, framing and installation work. The braided line produces bold visible marks, while the Line Lock holds tension during snapping to help create cleaner reference lines.

Best For Long Straight Layout Lines

• Stud wall and partition layout.
• Flooring installation and starting lines.
• Carpentry, framing and sheet-material marking.
• Roofing layout on suitable surfaces.
• Kitchen and interior fitting references.
• Brick, block and general construction setting out.

Why Choose the DeWalt TOUGHSERIES Chalk Reel

The 30m / 100ft working line provides useful reach for larger layout jobs. A 6:1 planetary gear system speeds up line retrieval and helps reduce line jams, while the rear access door makes string replacement easier. The handle folds flush with the body for more compact storage.

Key Benefits

• High-visibility braided line: Produces bold, easy-to-read chalk marks.
• Line Lock: Maintains tension while the line is positioned and snapped.
• 6:1 planetary gearing: Provides rapid line retrieval after marking.
• Rear access door: Simplifies string inspection and replacement.
• Flush-folding handle: Keeps the reel compact for toolbox storage.

How To Use

• Shake the chalk bottle before filling the reel.
• Add an appropriate amount of blue chalk without overfilling the housing.
• Pull the line out to the required length and secure the end.
• Position the line over the required marks and use the Line Lock to keep it taut.
• Lift the line slightly and release it sharply to create the chalk mark.
• Release the lock and rewind the line using the handle.
• Allow excess chalk dust to settle before storing the reel.

Care and Maintenance

• Brush excess chalk and dust from the exterior after use.

• Use the rear access door when replacing the line.
• Retract the cord carefully rather than allowing it to whip back uncontrolled.
