Rulers

Adhesive-Back Rulers

Permanently mount these rulers to a machine or workbench.

Certified Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel Rulers

A calibration certificate traceable to NIST is included with these stainless steel rulers.

Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel Rulers

Made to last, our most corrosion-resistant rulers are stainless steel and have wear-resistant etched markings.

Transparent Rulers

Keep your workpiece in view as you measure with these see-through rulers.

Easy-to-Read High-Contrast Rulers

Numbers and graduations etched in light colors are easy to see on a black background.

Nonslip Rulers

A cork back prevents slipping and protects delicate surfaces.

Long-Length Rulers

Create a ruler up to 192" long by adding continuous segments.

High-Accuracy Rulers

An economical alternative to Starrett High-Accuracy Rulers, these provide reliable, repeatable measurements.

Scratch-Resistant High-Accuracy Rulers

Protect your ruler from scratches and wear with a TiN (titanium nitride) coating.

Starrett High-Accuracy Rulers

Also known as machinists’ rules, these rulers ensure reliable, repeatable measurements.

Pocket Rulers

Rulers are narrow and just 6" long to measure in tight spaces.

Long-Length Vertical Rulers

Use to measure heights and tank levels.

Vertical Rulers with Hook

A hook grabs the edge of an object for easy alignment.

Center-Finding Rulers

Zero marks the center when these rulers are positioned so the same number touches each side of an object.

Tape Measures

Stanley PowerLock Tape Measures

Slide the lock to hold the blade in place. The case is chrome-plated, impact-resistant plastic.

Stanley Heavy Duty PowerLock Tape Measures

All have a durable cast metal case that’s chrome-plated for corrosion resistance

Stanley Corrosion-Resistant PowerLock Tape Measures

Blade, spring, and belt clip are stainless steel for corrosion resistance.

Stanley FatMax Tape Measures

Measure from a distance—the blade on these tape measures remains rigid when extended up to 11 feet.

Stanley LeverLock Tape Measures

The blade automatically locks in place when extended and stays locked until you press the release lever.

Lufkin Magnetic-Tip Tape Measures

Attach the magnetic-hook tip to metal surfaces to assist vertical and distance measuring.

Lufkin High-Visibility Tape Measures

A bright orange case makes these tape measures easy to spot.

Lufkin Tape Measures

These tape measures have a chrome-plated, impact-resistant plastic case.

Easy-to-Read Pocket Tape
Measures with Level and Compass

A window with an indicator line clearly shows the measurement.

Pocket Tape Measures

Compared to standard tape measures, these are less than half the size.

Certified Tape Measures

Ensure accurate measurements with certified tape measures.

Long Tape Measures

Measure distances over 35 ft.

Easy-Carry Long Tape Measures

Hold on to the large, rubber-coated handle while carrying these tape measures.

High-Visibility Long Tape Measures

Easily spot the brightly colored case on these tape measures around your worksite and in your toolbox.

Diameter Tape Measures

Pocket-Size Diameter Tape Measures

At about half the size of standard diameter tape measures, these fit in your pocket.

Certified High-Accuracy Diameter Tape Measures

Accurately measure diameter.

Liquid-Level Tape Measures

Also known as oil-gauging tapes, use these tape measures to check the level of oil and other fluids in deep, large containers such as tanks and vats.

Laser Distance Measurers

Use a laser to determine the distance to an object up to 700 yards away.
