Steel rule 300 x 40 x 5 mm DIN 866/B — Metav IndustryLine, ground special-steel working scale

The Steel rule 300 x 40 x 5 mm DIN 866/B is a ground special-steel working scale with millimetre graduation, designed for precise linear measurement and layout tasks in metalworking and general workshop environments

• Ground special-steel construction
• Millimetre graduation for precise reading
• Conforms to DIN 866/B standard
• Format 300 x 40 x 5 mm for workshop use

Industrial-grade construction for repeatable results

The rule is manufactured from ground special steel, a choice that combines wear resistance with a stable measuring edge, delivering repeatable results across many cycles of use. The hardened and ground surface reduces edge wear and helps maintain consistent contact geometry during comparative and layout measurements. For routine inspection and workshop tasks the robust build translates into fewer replacements and less downtime, supporting a steady production flow without sacrificing measurement reliability.

Clear graduations and DIN traceability for dependable checks

Equipped with a millimetre graduation, the instrument provides an immediate visual readout suitable for standard machining and inspection operations where millimetre resolution is required. Compliance with DIN 866/B signals adherence to recognised industrial specifications, simplifying specification checks and procurement for quality management processes. The standardised marking and layout make the rule easy to integrate into shop-floor protocols and documentation, aiding traceability when measurements need to be referenced in quality records.

Practical format and everyday workshop advantages

The 300 mm working length places this rule in the standard size class, offering the best balance between reach and stiffness for general engineering and toolroom tasks. The 40 mm width and 5 mm thickness yield a firm profile that resists bending during single-handed use and layout operations, allowing fast and reliable alignment of components, centre-finding, and marking. Its format suits bench work as well as portable checks, making it a versatile addition to the measurement set for machinists, fitters and inspectors.
