Helix Oxford 30cm Folding Ruler, Oxford Blue

Product Information

Over time the hinges can come loose, which will make them lose accuracy as the measurements will change Folding rules can be made from different materials, such as steel, aluminium, fibreglass, plastic or wood. The rule strips are joined with hinges and each strip can be folded against each other to keep it short. Once the strips are opened out they can usually be fixed into place, which creates a long rigid rule. I have been a volunteer at the Matheson History Museum. Feeling an affinity with old hand tools (some of which I remember from my youth), I have tried to learn more about the history of the tools in the Tison Tool Barn, and how they were used.

They can be transported easily once they are folded up, making them useful when working in the field. Our folding rules are made by HULTAFORS in Sweden from a slowly growing birch near the Arctic circle.This wood is very tough and hard and considered as the best for a wooden folding rule. The hinges are of Swedish steel, the rivets are not visible and oiled durable. The accuracy is according to EC-class III, = +-1 mm per 1m and +-1.4 mm per 2m. I am not an expert on tools. I have used some of the tools represented in the Tison Tool Barn, though perhaps not very well. I do enjoy digging around to find out more about the tools, and hope that some of you share my interest in the old tools collected in the Tison Tool Barn. Folding rules are considered to be predecessors of modern tape measures, which are long flexible strips with measurements marked on them which are coiled inside a case. They can be extended out or retracted into a coil inside the case.

These rules are often divided into 150 mm (6″), 200 mm (8″) or 250 mm (10″) sections. They are typically marked with either metric or imperial measurements or both. Some folding rules also have other markings, depending on their intended use.
