12 in. Rulers, Yardsticks & Tape Measures

Whether your place of employment deals specifically with drafting and other types of measuring work or just requires a few occasional measurements when office furniture is being installed or papers are being formatted, there are a diverse amount of rulers, yardsticks and tape measures available to suit tasks both small and large. Pick up other basic supplies to ensure you're ready for whatever the work day has in store.

Rulers

Whether you prefer imperial or metric measurements, there are rulers that feature both types of measurements on either side for flexible measuring. With scaled increments as small as 1/16", it's easy to achieve extremely precise measurements. Choose stainless steel rulers for ultimate durability or select plastic rulers that can twist, bend and then return to their original shape. A ruler with a built-in hang hole allows simple positioning on a wall when not in use.

Tape Measures

Available with either flexible blades or slightly rigid blades, there are tape measures that allow you to obtain the measurements of entire rooms, straight objects or circular items. Ranging in length from a mere 5' to an impressive 50', tape measures are perfect for making both small and large measurements alike. Choose tape measures with automatic retraction for quick, hassle-free cleanup once you're finished.

Yardsticks

Ideal for a variety of drafting projects, yardsticks are printed with measurements on both sides for flexible use. Make sure your yardstick can stand the test of time with a clear lacquer coating that prevents wear and metal ends that resist chipping and splitting. Boldly printed markings can be clearly seen and easily read from a distance to simplify the measuring process even further.
