Workshop Rule M214.706 — 1,500 mm straightedge by Metav IndustryLine, ground special steel

The Workshop Rule M214.706 is a 1,500 mm straightedge designed for precise layout, inspection and marking tasks in metalworking and general workshop environments.

• 1,500 mm measurement length
• Ground special steel construction
• 5 mm rigid profile
• Square edges, no chamfer

Precision that speeds up workshop routines

The long straightedge delivers a consistently flat reference over its full length, making layout and inspection faster and more reliable. Manufactured from ground special steel, the straightedge resists wear and retains flatness under regular use; this reduces the need for repeated adjustment and avoids rework. For machinists and fitters, the clear benefit is improved throughput: fewer interruptions for re-measuring and better repeatability when transferring lines or checking flatness.

Robust design for heavy workshop use

A 5 mm rigid profile and a fully ground surface create a durable measurement tool that stands up to workshop conditions. The omission of a bevel — described as without chamfer in the product designation — preserves square edges for true edge referencing and enables flush contact on faces and shoulders. This construction makes the rule suitable for repeated layout on plate, checking straightness of assemblies and guiding scribing operations where a precise, unbroken edge is essential.

Practical integration and handling

At 1,500 mm length the straightedge balances reach and manageability: long enough for large-format assemblies yet light and narrow enough to handle without excessive effort. The workpiece-focused design supports common workshop tasks such as marking, transferring datum lines and using the rule as a reference when aligning parts. The robust surface finish of the ground steel also facilitates easier cleaning and longer service life, supporting a lower total cost of ownership through fewer replacements.
