Key Features
Integrated Sliding Stopper: This is the most significant feature. The movable stopper allows for quick and accurate marking of:
- Parallel lines (scribing).
- 45-degree angles.
- Consistent height measurements.
- The stopper can be reversed for different measurement and marking applications.
Description
- High-Quality Steel Construction (Square): The main body of the square is made from durable steel, ensuring longevity, resistance to wear, and consistent accuracy.
- Durable ABS Resin Stopper: The stopper component is made from robust ABS resin, providing a good balance of durability and lightness.
- Dual-Sided Markings ("Same Scale on Front and Back" - 表裏同目): Both faces of the square feature identical measurement scales, making it highly versatile and convenient for various tasks without needing to flip the tool.
- Metric Measurements: Typically features clear metric scales (e.g., in millimeters and centimeters).
- Compact Size: With dimensions of approximately 30 x 15 cm (or 12 x 6 inches), it's a "small carpenter's square," making it portable and easy to handle for a variety of tasks, both on-site and in the workshop.
- High Precision: Shinwa is renowned for the accuracy of its measuring tools. The square itself typically boasts a high degree of straightness accuracy (e.g., within 0.1mm per 100mm). The stopper's angular accuracy is also very high.
- Clear and Legible Markings: Etched or clearly printed markings ensure easy readability for precise measurements.
