Description
These hardened stainless steel rules from Shinwa are the most widely used rules by other Japanese manufacturers. All the rules are manufactured to Shinwa's high standards.
The scales are deep-etched for permanence, with graduations in ½ millimetres on the bottom edge and millimetres on the top edge. The rules have an anti-glare, matt pearl chrome finish for easy reading. They read zero from the left hand end with a hanging hole at the opposite end. The backs of the rules feature a useful millimetre-inch conversion table and a tapping drill table.
Shinwa rules are made to Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS B7516 Grade 1). The length tolerance of the rulers is measured between two arbitrary scale marks at a temperature of 20 °C.
