Apex 062CMEN Red End Folding Wood Rule 6 Ft

Product Description

The APEX 062CMEN is a folding wood rule designed for general measurement tasks across a range of trade and construction applications. Built with a white-painted wood blade, it features red end caps that help prevent wear at the fold points and make the rule easy to spot on a jobsite. The blade measures 72 inches fully extended at 0.625 inches wide and 0.13 inches thick, giving it enough rigidity for straightforward linear measurements without flex. The metric scale runs from 0 mm to 2000 mm, making it well-suited for work requiring metric readout. At 0.39 pounds, it is lightweight enough to carry in a tool pouch throughout a full shift.

This folding rule is intended for general measuring in residential and light commercial construction, finish carpentry, plumbing rough-in, HVAC ductwork layout, and electrical conduit placement. The folding format allows easy storage in a pouch or pocket while still extending to a full 6 feet when needed. Tradeworkers who need a quick, hands-free measurement reference without unrolling a tape will find it practical for repetitive layout work.

Key Features

• Folds compactly for pocket or pouch carry, extends to 72 inches for full-length measurements
• Metric scale from 0 mm to 2000 mm for metric layout and measurement tasks
• Red end caps protect fold points and reduce wear at high-stress joints
• White wood blade at 0.625 inches wide provides a clear surface for scale markings
• Lightweight at 0.39 pounds for all-day carry without added bulk

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose folding wood rule suitable for use across carpentry, plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and other building trades requiring metric linear measurement up to 2000 mm.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this measuring tool. Extend and fold sections carefully along the hinged joints to avoid stressing the wood at the fold points. Avoid exposing the rule to prolonged moisture, which can cause the wood to swell and the joints to bind. Replace the rule if the blade shows warping or the hinges become loose, as dimensional accuracy depends on a straight, fully seated blade.
