Construction Fiberglass Ruler 78 Inches

The Wiha Tools 61630 is a 78 inch fiberglass ruler built for construction and trade professionals who need a long, straight measuring edge. Its insulated finish and photo-engraved markings resist wear on active job sites. The HAWA material provides rigidity without the weight of metal rules. It suits carpenters, concrete workers and layout specialists.

Dual Graduation Inch And Metric Scales

Graduations are printed in 1/16 inch, 1/8 inch, 1/4 inch and 1/2 inch increments alongside 1 mm, 5 mm and 10 mm metric marks. The black painted markings on a light background give high contrast for fast reading in bright or low light. Photo engraving keeps the scales legible after repeated abrasion. This single tool replaces separate inch and metric rules.

No Hook For Flat Surface Measurement

The ruler has no end hook, so it lies completely flat against the workpiece for accurate inside dimensions and layout lines. A 1/2 inch width and 12.7 mm thickness keep the blade stable when spanning gaps. The insulated fiberglass body is non-conductive, adding safety near live electrical circuits. Buyers who need a hooked tape for single-person use should choose a different tool.

Questions about this item

How does the 78 inch length work on a jobsite?

The ruler extends to 78 inches, giving a full two metre reach for layout work without needing to reposition a shorter tape.

What do the photo engraved graduations of 1/16 inch and 1 mm mean for daily use?

Black markings are photo engraved on the fiberglass blade, providing both 1/16 inch and 1 millimetre graduations that resist wear and stay readable in bright light.

What does the half inch wide fiberglass blade need to stay flat while measuring?

The 12.7 mm wide HAWA fiberglass blade lies flat on its own; no hook or end stop is fitted, so you simply press it against the work surface.
