How do I clean the aluminium surface?

Wipe the aluminium surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers to protect the markings.

Can this square be used for metalworking?

While durable, this square is primarily designed for carpentry. For precise metalworking, a square specifically designed for metal may offer better durability and accuracy.

Is the foldable design durable?

Troubleshooting

Markings are difficult to read

Ensure the square is clean and free of dust. In low light conditions, use a flashlight to illuminate the markings.

Square does not fold or unfold smoothly

Check the hinge for any debris. Gently clean the hinge area and ensure no obstructions are present. If stiffness persists, a small application of lubricant might help, but use sparingly.

Bent or damaged edge

Minor bends may be carefully straightened. However, if the edge is significantly bent or damaged, it can compromise accuracy and the square may need replacement.
