Machined Edge for Accuracy You Can Trust
This high-quality anodized aluminum straight edge measures 968mm long, 47mm wide, and is machined on both edges with a tolerance of 0.1mm across the length. Its main intended uses are for checking the straightness of workpieces or surfaces and checking machine tables or alignment. In particular, it makes a great tool for calibrating jointer tables and aligning fences.
The hourglass cross section with its central ribbed finger groove makes it easy to handle. This straight edge will stand on its 10mm wide reference face. The opposite edge has a bevel down to 2.5mm for easy reading. Both edges feature a scale beginning at zero on the right-hand side. It has a hanging hole at one end for safe storage when not in use.

Very Straight
The straight edge is perfectly straight and finally machined, but I just realized the rule is not precise on mine. It’s no big deal, however, as I am not using this as a ruler, so using a sticker in lieu of laser etching the scale in this case likely keeps the cost down, but I wouldn’t use its rule for precision work. That said, this straight edge is damn straight and really helped me diagnose a very problematic accuracy issue I was having with my track saw. So if they can laser engrave the rule without charging more (or much more) there is room for improvement (hence the 4 stars), but there really are better options for that anyway. This is a straight edge and it fulfills that role wonderfully and should be in virtually everyone’s shop.

UJK Straight Edge
This is a beautiful and highly functional tool that's sold at an excellent price. Highly recommended. I only wish they also made it in Imperial sizing. Also - TSO is a wonderful company from which to purchase. Buy here with confidence!

Scale is right to left
For some baffling reason, the scale is right to left on this straight edge. Even though english speakers read left to right. This makes it frustrating difficult to use for measurement. It's great at being a large straight piece of metal.

Perfect Straight Edge
I own a few different straight edges and this one far surpasses them by having the ability to stand up on its edge and have visible and easy to read measurements. It is a great addition to my shop and my growing collection of UJK products. Highly Recommend.
