Ruler KS Tools 300.0636 300 mm stainless steel

The KS Tools 300.0636 ruler is a 300 mm measuring tool made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel. Its straight edge and clearly engraved graduations provide reliable, repeatable measurements for workshop, technical and hobby tasks. The compact length and slim profile make it easy to position on workpieces, fit into tool bags, and use for marking, measuring and checking dimensions where accuracy is required.

Advantages

Made from stainless steel for resistance to rust and wear, the ruler offers a stable, non-deforming edge for accurate linear measurements. The engraved scale remains legible over time, and the compact 300 mm length balances reach with portability. The tool’s flat construction allows consistent contact with flat surfaces and easy storage.

• Workshop measurements and layout work
• Technical drawing and mechanical marking
• Carpentry, metalworking and DIY projects
• Inspection and verification of short dimensions

Key specifications

How to use

Place the ruler with its straight edge against the object to be measured or marked, aligning the zero point with the reference edge. Read measurements directly from the engraved millimetre scale, and use the flat edge as a guide for scribing or drawing straight lines. For marking, hold the ruler firmly to avoid shifting and move the pencil or scribe along the edge. After use, wipe clean and store in a dry place to maintain the finish.

Recommendations

For consistent accuracy, avoid heavy bending or hammering on the ruler and keep it protected from strong impacts. Clean gently with a soft cloth to remove debris and prevent surface corrosion; do not use aggressive chemicals that can harm the markings. When precise calibration is required, compare against a certified reference gauge.
