Ruler DIN 874/I L.1500 mm — Steel measuring bar with GG1 accuracy, TECWERK

Ruler DIN 874/I L.1500 mm is a precision workshop measuring bar designed for layout, inspection and quality control tasks where a stable reference and certified accuracy are required.

DIN 874/I accuracy class GG1 Fine-ground high edges and flat sides Cross-section 60 x 12 mm Length 1,500 mm

Consistent measurement accuracy for production control

The instrument meets DIN 874/I with accuracy class GG1, which ensures small tolerances for straightness and parallelism across the measuring edge. This classification means the bar is suitable as a reference for alignment and comparative measurement in component inspection. The GG1 rating implies an inspected and traceable geometry, reducing uncertainty in layout work and helping to maintain process capability on the shop floor without repeated corrective machining.

Solid steel construction reduces flex and drift

Manufactured from steel and finely ground on both the high edges and flat sides, the measuring bar offers a stable cross-section of 60 x 12 mm that resists bending under normal workshop loads. The fine grinding reduces surface irregularities that could affect contact with scribers, callipers or straightedges. As a consequence, the measuring bar provides a dependable, long-lasting reference that sustains dimensional integrity during daily use.

Practical design for everyday workshop tasks

The profile and finish permit straightforward use for marking, scribing and visual comparison. The finely machined edges provide a clear, repeatable datum for scribes and feeler gauges, while the flat sides ensure the bar sits securely on workbenches or machine beds. For longer lengths, a different profile is employed: from 2,000 mm a double T-shaped design with two hand slots is used, but this 1,500 mm variant retains a compact, easy-to-handle form factor suited to bench and machine-side applications.

Inspection status and traceability for quality systems

The product is noted as inspection required, indicating it is delivered with or intended for calibration and verification within regulated quality processes. That inspection status supports documented traceability for quality management systems and simplifies integration into ISO-driven inspection routines. A properly inspected measuring bar lowers the administrative effort associated with incoming inspection and accelerates commissioning into production.

Availability and material options for operational needs

The standard construction is steel, with a stainless execution stated as available short-term directly from factory stock for environments where corrosion resistance is necessary. The option of a corrosion-resistant variant helps extend service life in humid or chemically active workplaces and supports hygiene requirements in sensitive production areas. Paired with Metav’s distribution, reliable supply and documented quality checks make the instrument a pragmatic choice for workshop standardisation.

FAQ

What does DIN 874/I GG1 mean for workshop use?
The DIN 874/I GG1 classification denotes strict straightness and parallelism tolerances; the ruler with this rating is suitable as a reliable reference for alignment and inspection tasks.

Is the measuring bar supplied with calibration or inspection documentation?
The product is listed as inspection required; documentation and verification records for the ruler can be provided to support quality-system traceability.

Can the ruler be used in corrosive environments?
A stainless execution is available short-term from factory stock, permitting use in humid or corrosive conditions where the steel standard would require extra protection.

What is the cross-section and why does it matter?
The cross-section is 60 x 12 mm, which balances rigidity and handling; the dimension reduces flex and helps maintain a stable reference under normal bench work.

Is this ruler suitable for portable measurement on a machine bed?
Yes; the fine-ground flat sides ensure stable seating on benches and machine beds, making the measuring bar suitable for portable layout and machine-side checks.
