How to use

Unfold the ruler until segments lock in a straight line to obtain a continuous measuring edge. Place the ruler along the object or surface to be measured, ensuring the start point aligns with the zero mark at the ruler's end. Read measurements directly from the scale printed or etched on the segments. Fold the ruler back segment by segment for compact storage after use, keeping the segments clean and free of debris to maintain smooth joint operation.

Usage recommendations

Store the folding ruler in a dry place to reduce corrosion risk. Avoid bending or applying excessive lateral force to the segments to preserve joint alignment and measurement accuracy. Regularly wipe the scale to keep markings legible.
