Product Information

Full details

These rulers offer high precision and excellent visibility through a transparent blue-tinted finish, though they lack a non-slip backing which may be a consideration for those working on very slick surfaces.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these rulers flexible?

They are designed to be shatter-resistant, meaning they possess a slight degree of flex, but they are not intended to be fully bendable or rolled.

What measurements are included on the ruler?

The ruler features both metric (centimeters/millimeters) and imperial (inches) markings.

Are these suitable for primary school students?

Yes, their shatter-resistant construction makes them safer and more durable for classroom environments compared to standard brittle plastic rulers.

How long is each ruler?

Each ruler is 300mm (30 centimeters) in length.

Do these rulers have a beveled edge?

These rulers feature a standard flat design suitable for general measuring and straight-edge drawing tasks.

Are they transparent?

Yes, they feature a transparent blue tint that allows for clear visibility of the surface beneath the ruler.

Troubleshooting

Ruler edge has accumulated pencil residue or graphite

Gently wipe the edge with a soft eraser or a dry microfiber cloth to remove deposits without damaging the plastic surface.

Surface markings appear smudged or blurry

Ensure the ruler is placed flush against the paper surface to reduce parallax error and verify that no oils or grease are on the underside.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High durability due to shatter-resistant plastic
  • Excellent visibility for precise alignment
  • Dual scale markings for versatility
  • Cost-effective bulk pack of 10
  • Lightweight and easy to transport

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These rulers require no setup; they are ready for use immediately upon unboxing. They are compatible with standard pencils, fineliners, and ballpoint pens. To maintain the clarity of the blue-tinted plastic, avoid using abrasive cleaning pads or strong chemical solvents, as these may cloud the surface. Simply wipe the ruler with a soft, dry cloth or a slightly damp microfiber towel if it accumulates dust or pencil lead residue. Store them in a flat location when not in use to prevent warping over time.
