Ruler AWTools AW29812 — 40 mm width, 150 g

AWTools AW29812 — 40 mm width, 150 g is a compact aluminium measuring ruler designed for accurate linear measurement and marking in workshop, construction and DIY environments. Made of high-quality, robust aluminium with a riveted handle, this ruler combines durability with practical handling. The double-sided millimetre scale and the ability to set the tool at 90° and 45° angles make it suitable for a range of layout, marking and right-angle tasks in metal and wood processing.

Advantages

The aluminium construction provides a corrosion-resistant, lightweight tool that retains straight edges under regular use. A riveted handle increases stability and grip during marking and measurement. Double-sided millimetre graduations improve measuring efficiency and accuracy from both sides, while the precise 90° and 45° settings allow quick transfer of right angles. A hang hole enables space-saving storage in any workshop or toolbox.

Suitable for

• General measuring and marking on construction sites
• DIY projects and home renovations
• Metal and wood processing for marking right angles
• Layout and straight-edge drawing in workshops and craft work

Key specifications

• Material: high-quality aluminium with riveted handle for added stability
• Width: 40 mm
• Weight: 150 g
• Scale: double-sided millimetre scale
• Angle settings: can be set at 90° and 45°
• Storage: hang hole for convenient storage

How to use

Place the ruler on the workpiece with the straight edge aligned to the required measurement or reference line, and read the value from the double-sided millimetre scale. For marking right angles, align the ruler at the 90° or 45° setting and scribe along the edge using a pencil or marking tool. The riveted handle provides a firm grip for one-handed operation and helps maintain alignment during marking and cutting. Use the hang hole to store the ruler on a pegboard or hook when not in use.

Usage recommendations

To maintain accuracy and prolong service life, keep the ruler clean and free of debris, avoid bending or heavy impact, and store it on a hook or in a tool drawer. Use appropriate marking tools for the material being worked on and verify measurements on both sides of the double-sided scale when precision is required.
