Half-Measure Adhesive-Back Rulers

Left to Right

Right to Left

Use to find diameters and centers. The graduations and numeric increments on these rulers are half the actual length of the object you are measuring; a 1" graduation is actually 1/2", a 2" graduation is actually 1", and so on. All are flexible for mounting on curved surfaces.

Center-Finding Tape Measures

Find the exact center of your work. Measure the total distance with the upper scale; then find the same number on the bottom scale—that's your center point. The blade is coated to resist scratches, wear and corrosion. It locks in place. Case is impact-resistant plastic with a nonslip rubber grip. It's yellow for high visibility.

Combination Squares

Replace your try square, miter square, depth gauge, marking gauge, 90° level, ruler, and scriber with one tool. Blades labeled with numeric increments that are less than 1" are quick-reading. All have wear-resistant etched markings.

Square head checks 90° angles.
