   Precision ground and hardened to ensure long-lasting accuracy and resistance to damage.

3. High Straightness Accuracy
   Manufactured to meet or exceed IS/BS/DIN standards for straightness, ensuring reliable reference for inspection.

4. Beveled or Parallel Edge Design
   Available in single-bevel or parallel edge styles for various inspection and marking tasks.

5. Corrosion-Resistant Finish
   Protected with anti-corrosive treatment to prolong life and maintain performance.

6. Precision Ground Edges
   Fine ground working edge ensures consistent contact and reliable measurements.

7. Available in Multiple Lengths
   Offered in various lengths (e.g., 300mm to 2000mm or more) for different applications.

8. Chamfered Ends
   Smooth, chamfered ends for safe handling and accurate alignment.

9. Etched Markings (Optional)
   Some models come with finely etched identification or measurement marks for easy identification.

10. Inspection Grade Quality
