Black chrome-plated for durability and contrast readability, this rule carries a 16R graduation style with four scales: 1\/32, 1\/64, 1\/100, and 1\/50 inch. The horizontal scale orientation makes it well suited for layout, inspection, and fabrication tasks. At 0.0400 inches thick, the rule maintains a flat, rigid profile that holds position during measurement without flexing. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, fabricators, and quality technicians rely on this type of precision rule as a fundamental bench and layout instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis rule fits standard trade and industrial applications including machine shop layout, sheet metal fabrication, welding fixture setup, and general dimensional inspection. The 16R graduation pattern provides both fractional and decimal inch scales on a single rule, reducing the need to switch between measuring tools during close-tolerance work. The rigid construction is preferred in applications where a flexible rule would introduce measurement error.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e24-inch overall length with 1-1\/8-inch width for wide, stable reference surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e16R graduation style includes 1\/32, 1\/64, 1\/100, and 1\/50 inch scales\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRigid construction holds flat profile for accurate layout and inspection work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack chrome-plated finish improves contrast and resists corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHorizontal scale orientation for consistent left-to-right reading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo hook, non-magnetic — straightforward layout and bench use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose precision steel rule for machinists, fabricators, and inspection professionals requiring 16R fractional and decimal inch graduations on a rigid 24-inch blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo installation is required for this hand tool. Store the rule flat or in a protective sleeve to prevent edge damage and maintain graduation legibility. Clean the blade with a dry or lightly oiled cloth to prevent surface oxidation. Handle the rule by its body rather than dragging it across abrasive surfaces to preserve the black chrome finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0400 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGraduation Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16R\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGraduations\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/32, 1\/64, 1\/100, 1\/50 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale Orientation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Horizontal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlexibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rigid\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Chrome-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes Hook\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMagnetic\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13-908-9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SPIROTHERM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691948867890,"sku":"13-908-9","price":50.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7ca54cb1b7afaa575fac4499f87b1b20.jpg?v=1788291321","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/spi-13-908-9-steel-rule-24-inch-16r-rigid","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
