Workshop ruler M214.735 — 1,000 mm steel rule, chamfered with mm graduations (Metav IndustryLine)

The Workshop ruler M214.735 is a robust, precision measuring and marking guide designed for everyday layout, scribing and inspection work in metal and general workshops.

*1,000 mm steel rule with chamfered edge
*Ground special steel for flatness and durability
*Metric mm graduations for precise layout
*2.0 kg weight for stable bench and hand use

Accurate surface and clear graduations for reliable results

The ruler is manufactured from ground special steel, a process that creates a consistently flat surface and minimises local deviations that cause measurement error. The mm graduations are clearly scribed for immediate readability during layout and marking; combined with the chamfered edge, this reduces burrs and protects the graduation from premature wear. For workshops where repeatability matters, the combination of a flat measuring face and precise metric divisions speeds up setup and reduces rework.

Stable profile and durable construction for daily use

A wider profile and a 5 mm thickness contribute to overall stability, so the rule resists unwanted bending during handling or when used as a straight edge. The substantial mass—about 2 kg—helps the rule sit securely on workpieces, reducing movement while scribing or checking alignment. The 40 mm width gives a larger contact area for more consistent results across the length of the tool, making it suitable for repeated use in fabrication, inspection benches and pattern marking.

Practical handling, marking and inspection applications

The straight, ground face serves as a reliable straight edge for scribing, cutting guides and visual checks, while the chamfer simplifies edge alignment against profiles and prevents catching on rough surfaces. As a metric steel rule, it integrates cleanly into existing workshop procedures for layout, transfer measurements and quick inspection tasks. Its robust finish ensures longevity under workshop conditions and supports rapid, repeatable workflows that save time on every job.

FAQ

What materials is this ruler suitable for marking and checking?
The M214.735 workshop ruler is intended for general workshop use and is suitable for layout and marking on metals, composites and many workshop surfaces where a straight, flat reference is required.

How does the ground finish benefit measurement tasks?
A ground surface improves flatness and reduces local deviations; this means more consistent contact with the workpiece and fewer measurement errors when using the rule as a reference or straight edge.

Is the edge protected against wear?
The chamfered edge reduces the risk of burr formation and shields the graduation line from direct impact, extending the useful life of the metric mm divisions.

Can the ruler be used as a straight edge for cutting guides?
Yes, the robust profile and flat contact face make it suitable as a straight edge for marking and as a temporary guide for manual cutting or scribing operations.

What distinguishes this workshop ruler from a lightweight scale?
The heavier profile and ground special-steel construction of the M214.735 prioritise stability and durability over portability, providing a reference that resists bending and keeps measurements consistent during repetitive tasks.
