Ruler Milan 30 cm New Look plastic orange - Milan 589563

The Milan 30 cm New Look plastic ruler in orange is a straight measuring tool designed for precise linear measurements, drawing lines and everyday use in school, office or drafting tasks. Made from durable plastic with a bright orange body and transparent edges, this 30 cm ruler combines visibility with transparent alignment guides to help position the tool accurately on paper or other surfaces. Its compact, lightweight construction makes it easy to carry in pencil cases or folders while providing reliable stiffness for straight-line drawing and measurement up to 30 centimetres.

Advantages

This Milan ruler offers a clear 30 cm scale for accurate measurements and a durable plastic construction that resists bending during normal use. The transparent edges improve alignment with printed grids or drawing guides, while the orange body increases visibility on a crowded desk. The ruler’s slim profile and low weight facilitate transport and storage without occupying much space.

Suitable for

• School tasks: drawing, geometry exercises and note-taking
• Office work: measuring paper formats, aligning documents and quick checks
• Drafting and sketching: straight-line guides for sketches and layouts
• Home projects: simple measurements for crafts and DIY tasks

Key specifications

• Length: 30 cm measuring scale
• Material: durable plastic body with transparent edges
• Color: orange body with clear alignment edges
• Profile: slim, lightweight and rigid for straight-line accuracy
• Visibility: high-contrast scale markings for easy reading

How to use

Place the ruler on the surface with the transparent edge aligned to the start and end points of the intended line or measurement. Ensure the 0 cm mark is correctly positioned at the reference point, then read the required length at the opposite end of the object or mark your measurement with a pencil or pen along the ruler’s straight edge. For drawing parallel lines or transferring measurements, keep consistent pressure and orientation to maintain accuracy. Clean the ruler with a soft cloth to remove ink or residue that could obscure scale markings.

Usage recommendations

Store the ruler flat or in a pencil case to avoid warping. Avoid exposure to high heat or heavy loads that could deform the plastic. For precise technical drawing, use a drafting board or other stabilising surface together with the ruler to minimise movement.
