## Description

This is a Hardened Stainless Steel Satin Chrome Rigid 12" 300 mm Steel English Metric rule.

This rule is made from the finest stainless steel available and is hardened and tempered. It has a zero glare satin chrome finish which makes it easy to read and will prevent corrosion. Markings are precision photo etched and then black filled for easy readability. The English Metric graduations shows 32nds and 64ths on one side and mm and .5 mm on the reverse. Rule is 1.250" wide and .040" thick. Both long edges and ends are ground flat and straight. Accuracy conforms to Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) B 7516 Grade 1.

Review: Fantastic scale - I'm really happy with this, it's accurate and easy to read
Review: If you need accuracy then you need a Shinwa ruler - These rulers are super high quality and dead on accurate, I've purchased multiples of the 6" and 12" and every one of them was exactly the same accuracy. These are thicker than the cheap chinese/india made levels at your local woodworking store, no flex/bend in them so they lay flat making marking an easier task. The combination of metric and standard is a really nice feature as well, with very crisp and easy to read numbers and lines. The finish is very subtle not shiny/glossy which makes these very nice in bright light, and should hold up for many years to come.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the sensitivity? (+/- X micrometers)**
A: This goes to 0.5 MM, which is 5 micrometers.

**Q: Can this replace a metal blade in a combination square?  i'm a novice diy woodworker**
A: No.  The combination squares I'm familiar with typically have a channel that runs the length of the rule which is provided to allow it to be locked into place when adjusted as desired.   This rule does not have that channel.

**Q: Curious, whats this country of origin of this rule?**
A: Japan.  Very nice rules.

**Q: Is this really sand blasted finish? I am looking for a ruler wirh zero glare to be able to see it easily**
A: Here is the Shinwa scale on top of another brand I bought at the same time. The Shinwa definitely has a non glare finish. I did move them around so you can compare for yourself. Additionally, the Shinwa model has stayed flat and the edges while being sharp are smoother to the touch - the other rulers edge seems almost sharp enough to cut if you ran it across your hand.  I don’t think you will be dissapppointed in the Shinwa,

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic scale

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Geeat quality, easy to read
*by M***O on January 22, 2024*

After using this 12 inch Shinwa, I ordered a second one (6 inch) from them as well. These are high quality, accurate, and super easy to read. I like flexible scales for some jobs but really like the rigidness of this scale, since it's easier to pick up from a flat workbench. I wear trifocals and am always jockeying my work pieces around in the light to get a read on a scale. These are so easy to read in most lighting situations, that I may buy several others to have in various work areas. Not a glamorous tool purchase, but once you use them you wonder why you didn't buy one earlier. Highly recommended.
