Workshop ruler 800 x 40 x 5 mm — Metav IndustryLine, ground special steel, mm scale

The Workshop ruler 800 x 40 x 5 mm is a sturdy, ground measuring profile for workshop and metalworking use, combining an easily readable millimetre graduation with a chamfered edge for precise marking and alignment

• 800 mm hardened, ground special-steel profile
• Precise millimetre graduation, easy reading
• Chamfered edge for reliable alignment

Repeatable measurements with a rigid profile

The ruler's geometry and finish make it suited to routine layout and inspection work where repeatability matters. The 800 mm length with a 40 x 5 mm cross-section provides a balance between reach and stiffness, reducing bend and vibration during handling. The ground special steel surface yields a flat, wear-resistant reference that preserves scale accuracy over time, so measurement routines stay consistent and rework is reduced. This stability supports quicker set‑ups on benches and in fixtures, improving throughput on repetitive tasks.

Faster, clearer marking and checking on the shop floor

A clear millimetre graduation allows for quick visual readings and accurate scribing without additional gauges. The chamfered edge simplifies edge alignment and prevents the rule from digging into softer workpieces while marking, which minimises measurement error during layout. For machinists and fitters, these features translate into fewer measurement steps and less time spent transferring dimensions, yielding tangible efficiency gains in daily processes.

Built for longevity and easy integration into workflows

The ground finish resists surface wear and simplifies cleaning after use, maintaining legibility of the scale even in demanding environments. The robust construction suits frequent handling and transport between machines and benches without rapid degradation. Supplied as part of the Metav IndustryLine, the product benefits from Metav’s quality control in Emmerich and its broad spare-part and accessory availability, supporting long-term, reliable use in professional workshops.

FAQ

What material is the ruler made from and why does it matter?
The workshop ruler is made from ground special steel, a choice that offers a wear‑resistant, flat reference surface; this material maintains the integrity of the millimetre graduation for long service life.

Is the scale suitable for precision layout work in a machine shop?
Yes, the clear millimetre graduation and the rigid 40 x 5 mm profile make the ruler well suited for machine‑shop layout and general inspection tasks where repeatable alignment is required.

Can the ruler be used for marking curved or irregular surfaces?
The chamfered edge assists in aligning against straight edges and profiles; for curved or highly irregular shapes, the rule serves as a stable reference but additional fixtures or contour templates are recommended.

Does the product come with calibration or a certificate?
This workshop ruler is supplied in line with Metav IndustryLine quality procedures; specific calibration certificates are provided only when indicated in the product label or order details.

What typical applications does this ruler cover?
Common uses include layout and marking, quick dimensional checks on components, alignment of fixtures and jigs, and workshop inspection tasks where a robust, repeatable straightedge is required.
