Metal Ruler Set — Stainless Steel 6, 12 & 18 Inch with Cork Backing

Product description

Stainless steel construction with cork backing: Each ruler is stamped from stainless steel for stiffness and resistance to bending during everyday use. A cork layer on the underside helps the ruler stay put on paper and prevents unwanted sliding when drawing or cutting.

Dual-scale, etched markings: The measuring scales show both inches and centimeters, etched into the metal so the numbers and ticks keep their visibility over time. These rulers are suitable for precise layout, drafting and general measuring tasks.

Safe edges and storage hole: The edges are smoothed to reduce the chance of nicks while handling, and a punched hole at one end allows you to hang them from a peg or hook for easy access.

Who uses them: Ideal for architects, engineers, students, teachers, craft makers and DIY woodworkers. They provide a straight edge for cutting, scoring and drawing, and the non-slip backing helps minimize ink or blade travel under the ruler.

What’s included: A set of three stainless steel metal rulers in 6 inch, 12 inch and 18 inch lengths, each with cork backing and dual metric/imperial etched scales.

Pros

  • Rigid stainless steel resists bending
  • Cork underside prevents slipping
  • Etched dual scales stay readable

Cons

  • Edges can feel sharp for some users
  • Cork may wear over heavy use
  • No protective sleeve included

VerdictA practical trio of stainless steel rulers that combine rigidity with a grippy cork strip to reduce slipping while drawing or cutting. Etched inch and centimeter markings remain legible, edges are smoothed for safe handling, and a small hanging hole aids storage. Useful for students, designers, tradespeople and hobbyists who need reliable straight edges in 6, 12 and 18 inch lengths.

Reviews

  1. Lillie Bloom 5/5

    Reliable quality

    Very good construction.

  2. RockyMountainMe 5/5

    Handy set, stays put

    Useful group of rulers for general measuring. The cork backing really reduces slipping and the offset measurements help with precise marks.

  3. angela m minden 5/5

    No-slip when cutting

    Performs well and stays in place during cuts. Would buy again.

  4. Matthew Bloskey 5/5

    Nice finish

    Edges are rounded and comfortable to handle.

  5. Isaac Erwin 5/5

    Solid and non-abrasive

    Well-made and sturdy, not flimsy. The padding protects delicate surfaces like leather and the grip makes one-handed marking simple.

  6. Debra Milton 5/5

    Good for crafting

    Sturdy, versatile and the thickness is just right for craft projects.

  7. Desire Cochems 5/5

    Versatile three-size set

    Handy collection of three lengths with clear markings and well-applied cork that keeps them steady.

  8. J Daws 5/5

    Accurate and practical

    Works well for straight cuts and measuring. Appears accurate, though the metal edge can be sharp, so handle carefully.
