In lessons the 30 cm ruler is the everyday tool for drawing margins, ruling tables, constructing triangles and reading the length of small objects to the nearest millimetre. In a science practical it can measure the extension of a spring, the length of a pendulum thread or the distance a marble rolls on a bench, while the inch edge lets students compare metric and imperial units on the same object.
The bevelled edges bring the markings down close to the paper, so readings are clearer when the student looks straight down at the mark rather than from an angle. Because the polystyrene is shatterproof, the ruler suits younger pupils who drop equipment, but it should be kept away from hot plates and burner flames. Schools planning a school laboratory setup in India often issue one ruler per student alongside pencils and erasers.
