Grip That Prevents Slipping

Each ruler includes patented Flex Tabs that grip to virtually any surface softer than the steel itself—wood, metal, paper, etc.—to prevent sliding while scribing, marking, or measuring.

Available in both Imperial and Metric with a variety of lengths to fit your projects:

Imperial: 6", 12", 18", 24"
