Engineer's Precision Metal Straight Edge Tools for Accurate Work

Perfect accuracy is the baseline for our products. So, as well as clean lines and precision measurements, our engineering straight edges and safety rules come with a host of other features.

The Maun Aluminium Safety Straight Edges have a non-slip, vision-enhancing, finger-protecting design. Ideal for scoring and cutting everything from papercraft to wallpaper, vinyl flooring, and even sheet glass. Available in metric sizes from 300 mm to 3 m.

Maun Steel Straight Edges are an all-purpose model. In Imperial sizes from 12″ to 72″, with metric options from 300 mm to 1 m. Our straight edges are crafted from high-quality carbon steel and case-hardened to HRC 57 for durability. These tools are built to ensure a flawless finish in all professional, DIY, woodworking, and craft applications. They are ideal for setting up machines like planers and jointers too. They include long straight edges, like the Steel Straight Edge Imperial 72″.

Our precision steel straight edges offer precise measurement along the entire length for maximum accuracy and that perfect straight edge every time. They also include hanging holes for storage on a hook or nail, with a range of lengths to choose from. The weight of a metal straight edge is reassuring and makes it much more forgiving than a lightweight ruler, which is particularly important when scoring or cutting with a sharp knife. Our range includes a range of popular sizes, including 600mm and 800mm. Ideal for engineers and machinists who need to ensure precise measurements on all items from their milling machine. You can use straight edges during painting or garden projects too.

They help you ensure the horizontal and vertical flatness of a surface, and are a useful alternative to spirit levels. Use with a carpenter's pencil to mark wood for cutting during your projects.

Decorators will find the straight edges useful when wallpapering or rendering a wall. They can ensure a flat surface, which is useful for when inspectors are reviewing your work.

The Safety Ruler, meanwhile, is a classic design that has endured for 60 years. Simple and safe. The straight edge ruler is perfect for the classroom and the workplace. High quality steel rulers that will last.

So, if you’re looking for an innovative design, lightweight, easy-to-handle build, and a product made to last by skilled British craftsmen, choose Maun straight edges today. And don’t settle for ordinary.
