Ruler, Plastic, Blackboard, 100cm (Product Code: SLE/CS/010) is a metre-long demonstration ruler that lets a teacher rule straight lines and mark measured lengths on a chalkboard at a size the whole class can follow from the back row. It carries both a centimetre scale and an inch scale, which makes it equally handy for measurement lessons, geometry constructions and drawing graph axes. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, and is a practical addition to the mathematics lab kits India's primary and secondary schools put together for board-based teaching.

Teachers use this ruler to draw number lines, x and y axes, tables and bar-chart frameworks on the board, and to show pupils how to read a scale by lining up zero and counting whole centimetres. Having both metric and inch markings on one ruler makes it easy to compare the two systems during a units lesson. When ruling lines, hold the ruler by its handle and press it flat against the board so the chalk runs cleanly along the edge without smudging the markings.
Because it arrives as two 50cm halves, the ruler stores in a cupboard or storage box and moves between classrooms without difficulty; join the halves with the handle before the lesson and check the joint is firm so the edge stays straight. Schools planning a school lab equipment bulk supply for several classrooms often order it together with the matching blackboard protractor, compass and set squares so every room has the same set of board instruments.
This ruler is produced by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the Ambala, Haryana company that trades under the ScienceLab name and makes classroom and laboratory teaching aids for schools in India and international markets. Background on the company is available on our company profile page.
These blackboard instruments and board supplies are commonly used alongside the 100cm ruler in the same geometry and measurement lessons:

Is the 100cm ruler supplied in one piece?
No. It comes as two 50cm halves that are assembled and held firmly together by a detachable handle, which keeps it compact for storage and transport.
Which scales are marked on it?
It is graduated 100 x 1cm and 39 x 1inch, so both metric and imperial lengths can be demonstrated with one instrument.
How rigid is it on the board?
The ruler is made of strong plastic, 55mm wide and 5mm thick, giving a firm straight edge to draw against with chalk.
How should it be cleaned?
Wipe off chalk dust with a dry or slightly damp cloth and let it dry before storing; avoid solvents that could dull the printed scale.
Can a calibration certificate be provided?
This is a teaching ruler for board demonstrations. If your order needs any measurement documentation, please discuss it with us through the contact page before ordering.
