Starrett High-Accuracy Rulers with Hook
A reversible, removable hook grabs the edge of an object for easy alignment. Also known as machinists’ rules, these rulers ensure reliable, repeatable measurements. They meet Fed. Spec. GGG-R-791H, which establishes uniform standards for ruler accuracy, graduations, and size. All have a corrosion-resistant satin-chrome finish that reduces glare and wear-resistant etched markings. These rulers are labeled with numeric increments that are less than 1" for quick reading.

Pocket Rulers
Rulers are narrow, flexible and just 6" long to measure in tight, slightly curved spaces. They have a pocket clip that can also be used as a depth gauge, with the clip as the base. Inch and inch/metric rulers labeled with numeric increments that are less than 1" are quick reading. Made of stainless steel, these rulers resist corrosion and have wear-resistant etched markings.

Lufkin Drop-Tested Tape Measures
Drop tested to 120 ft., these tape measures can fall from a 10-story office building and still work. All have a double-hook tip that grabs from the top and bottom.
Slide the lock on manual-lock tape measures to hold the blade in place. The blade on automatic-lock tape measures stays in place when extended and retracts when you press the release lever.
Tape measures with a magnetic-hook tip attach to metal surfaces to help vertical and distance measuring. However, the magnetic tip is strong, so it can accidentally attach to metal and collect shards of ferrous material that impact measurement accuracy.
