Product description
Precision drafting at your fingertips. Achieve professional-grade accuracy and eliminate the frustration of ink smudges or accidental slips with this high-quality stainless steel ruler. Designed for longevity and reliability, it provides the stable foundation you need for technical drawing, creative design, and precise clean-cutting tasks.

Engineered for Flawless Execution

Whether you are an architect, educator, or hobbyist, the tool you choose dictates the quality of your output. This STAEDTLER Mars Limited ruler translates technical strength into everyday utility, ensuring your work remains pristine and your measurements remain exact.

Smudge-Free Precision
The natural non-slip cork backing raises the steel edge slightly off your work surface. This prevents ink from bleeding or ghosting under the ruler, keeping your paper clean during ink work.
Industrial Durability
Constructed from high-quality flexible stainless steel, this tool is rust and warp-resistant, ensuring it remains perfectly straight even after years of use in heavy-duty studio or classroom environments.
Dual Graduation Logic
Equipped with etched Imperial (up to 1/64 increments) and Metric markings that won't wear away, giving you the flexibility to switch between drafting standards without swapping tools.
High-Stakes Cutting Surface
The precision-ground straight edge provides a safe, durable guide for hobby knives and rotary cutters, protecting your fingers while maintaining a true line.
