Wood Rulers
Trending now
A tried and true staple when it comes to supplying your home, office or classroom is a wooden ruler. Whether it's to draw a straight line or make a quick measurement, wood rulers will make the job an easy one.
A standard in the office and in the classroom
Wood rulers come in many different sizes and styles, but they all serve the same purpose: to provide a straight edge for measuring or drawing lines. Wooden rulers are a frequently used school supply for measuring the length of a line or checking the width of a paper. They can also help children learn to count and practice measuring items around the classroom.
Sturdy material helps these rulers last
Wood rulers are typically made from hardwoods such as maple or oak, which makes them durable and long-lasting. However, wooden rulers can also be made from softer woods such as balsa, which makes them lightweight and easy to carry. While they are durable, they are lighter weight and safer for children than stainless steel rulers. They come in a variety of sizes, but the most common length is 12 inches. Wooden rulers are also marked with graduations or small lines, that help measure distance. These graduations typically start at one end of the ruler and go up in increments of 1/16 of an inch. Because wooden rulers are so versatile and they come in packs of 6 or more, they make a great addition to any classroom or office.
