A diemaker's square is used to check the clearance angle on dies. The blade is adjusted to the angle of the workpiece by means of a blade adjusting screw. This angular setting must then be checked with a protractor. Another form of diemaker's square is the direct reading type which indicates the angle at which the blade is set. 2, record 17, English, - diemaker%27s%20square
