Manufactured from steel, it measures 36 inches long, 2-13\/32 inches wide, and 7\/32 inches thick. Edge flatness is held to 0.0004 inches and parallelism to 0.0012 inches, making it suitable for work where consistent reference accuracy is required. Machinists, tool-and-die technicians, fabricators, and quality control personnel are the primary users of this type of precision straight edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe STARRETT 51441 is used across metalworking shops, fabrication facilities, and inspection departments where surface layout and flatness verification are routine tasks. It is well suited for both bench work and machine setup, including use on surface plates, mill tables, and welding fixtures. Its length and precision tolerances make it appropriate for checking medium to large workpieces where a shorter rule or shorter straight edge would not span the full reference surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEdge flatness tolerance of 0.0004 inches for reliable precision reference work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eParallelism held to 0.0012 inches across the full length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare edge type for consistent contact along the working edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction for durability and dimensional stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e36-inch length accommodates medium to large workpiece inspection and layout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose precision straight edge for metalworking, fabrication, and quality inspection applications requiring a 36-inch steel reference tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStraight edges of this type are handled and stored by machinists and quality technicians who work with precision layout and inspection equipment. Clean the reference surface and the straight edge before use to prevent contamination from affecting flatness readings. Avoid dropping or striking the working edge, as impact damage can compromise the precision tolerances. Store flat or supported along its length to prevent long-term deflection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-13\/32 inches (61.12 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/32 inches (5.56 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Flatness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0004 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eParallelism\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0012 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.375 pounds\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: STARRETT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 51441\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542387294514,"sku":"51441","price":325.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5af5363f03ec3fb977b5b95744bd109f.jpg?v=1785899381","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-51441-square-straight-edge-36-in-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
