PEC Tools USA 6" Flexible Stainless 5R Machinist Engineer ruler/rule 1/64, 1/32, 1/10, 1/100

Useful for confirming measurements on flow meter orifice plates. Measurements a bit hard to read in a photograph.

Title says it all. Very thin however. East to bend

I had no idea that scales (that is what my husband calls them) came so many different types of measurements. My husband kept looking for his scale that had been misplaced. I thought I would be nice and order one. SURPRISE!!! The measurements were not the same as the one he could not find. SURPRISE #2 - he was thrilled!!! He also needed an Engineering scale. Who knew?He is very picky about his tools. He did not make me send it back and that says a lot about this scale. He liked the easy to read dark marks that he thought would not wear off easily. He liked the flexibility (must be important) and quality.Hope that helps someone out there. ;oD

I may not have read the description carefully enough, but this rule is thinner, narrower, and way more flexible than I expected. It's definitely not as robust and sturdy as my other 6" rule. I wish it was, but it's certainly usable.The real problem for me, though. is the brushed finish. It's pretty shiny and very hard to read under my shop lights. I figured there was little to lose, so I cleaned it up and dropped it in some hydrochloric. This actually did the trick. The etch gave it a matte finish, and the black fill in the markings held up. So much better.

Okay for what you pay.
