What materials are used to make Metrolog Ruler?

The Metrolog Ruler is machined Aluminum construction with anodized silver and grey finish.

What makes it different from other rulers?

It’s both a precision measuring tool and a design object. It features a telescoping neck, dimpled grips, and CNC-milled increments, fine tolerances, and a weighty feel. The Metrolog is meant to be kept — not borrowed.

What units of measurement does it use?

The Metrolog features both markings in Imperial up to 8" (1/16" increments) and Metric up to 20 cm (1mm increments).

Is it accurate enough for technical work?

Yes. Each ruler is precisely machined and inspected to ensure high accuracy within practical tolerances.

When will my order ship?

Domestic orders typically ship within 3–5 business days (excluding holidays), unless otherwise noted on a product page. Once packed and ready for pickup, you'll receive a confirmation email. Orders confirmed after 2 PM EST usually ship the following business day.

What is the return policy?

Rule with a light touch.

$ 98

Capture your most critical measurements with a telescoping metric and imperial measuring device.

Aluminum construction with anodized silver and grey finish
Imperial up to 8" (¹⁄₁₆" increments) and Metric up to 20 cm (1mm increments)
Telescoping neck, dimpled grips, and CNC-milled increments

In a game of inches, the Metrolog ruler is an unfair advantage. It takes imperial measurements up to 8”, with ¹⁄₁₆" increments, with Metric measurements accommodated up to 20cm, in millimeter increments along the way. Metrolog’s telescoping neck — paired with dimpled grips and an obsessively considered slide resistance — adapts to meet the measure of one’s curiosity. Its anodized silver and grey finish, CNC milled gradation increments, and distinctive yellow indicator make for an accurate, easy read of any critical measurements.

With all this in a single tool, don’t be surprised to find yourself sizing up everything in your immediate domain. The diameter of your mood ring, the distance between those two moles on your arm, the wheelbase of the matchbox car on your desk — with Metrolog, these quotidian mysteries need not plague you any longer.

Outstanding piece of art

A real conversation piece. Never owned anything so satisfyingly over engineered for a task as simple as measuring an edge.

Great Ruler - Worth Every Cent

I received my Metrology Ruler and was extremely impressed. Tried the caliper feature on some small pieces of brass printing type. It was perfectly accurate. Very well built and you can feel the quality. Very pleased. Thank you Craighill.

Beautiful & Functional

Ever since getting the Metrolog Ruler I've been measuring everything I come across. It's a pleasure to both use and look at. It's earned a place on my desk, and I find myself reaching for it constantly.

I particularly like the ability to convert inches to centimeters for any measurement.
