    About High-Quality Rulers
    industrial info icon

    What separates a throwaway ruler from one you’ll keep for decades, which type is best for everyday use, and how to compare materials.

    Easy-Read Rulers

    From bright outdoor jobsites to dimly lit workshops, take measurements where standard metal rulers would be hard to see. The black finish on these rulers reduces glare, while the light-colored graduations pop against the dark background.
    Lightweight Aluminum

    Our economical option. These rulers are about as lightweight as plastic rulers, so they’re convenient to carry from site to site. To keep them looking like new, an anodized coating guards them from daily wear and protects their finish if rinsed or rained on. Etched into the material, their graduations won't rub off like printed graduations can.
