Q: What increments is this rule graduated in?
Spanning 450mm, the rule is graduated entirely in millimetre increments, with one edge reading right to left and the other left to right.
05N0523 - Veritas 450mm Aluminum Bench Rule


Shaped much like a classic school ruler, this relatively narrow rule is lightweight and easy to handle, making it an ideal choice for precise drawing and design tasks.
The fine laser-etched markings stand out clearly against the matte black anodized finish, with one edge that reads right to left and the other left to right. All scales are graduated in millimetre increments.
Cut from a solid aluminum extrusion, this 450mm rule is 1 1/4" wide. To avoid parallax errors, the edges are tapered and lie within 0.01" of the stock surface, supported by small raised feet set back from each edge. This clearance ensures markings will not be smudged by the rule.
An excellent tool for layout and design work. Made in Canada.
The rules are available in other metric sizes and Imperial sizes, as well as in combined versions with both scales, sold individually as well as in sets.
