The Storaen Magnesium Aluminum Parallel Ruler is a high-precision industrial measurement tool engineered for demanding environments where dimensional stability and lightweight handling are critical. Utilizing an advanced MB15 alloy, these rulers bridge the gap between heavy-duty cast iron tools and lightweight aluminum, offering a superior strength-to-weight ratio that eliminates the risk of sagging and deformation during critical alignments.
Designed specifically for CNC machine bed calibration, textile machinery installation, and heavy equipment inspection, our parallel rulers feature an exceptional 110kg/mm² yield strength. This ensures that parallelism remains within tight tolerances (up to Grade 1 precision), providing professionals with a reliable instrument that withstands operational loads and temperature fluctuations without compromising accuracy.

Magnesium aluminum alloy offers a significantly higher strength-to-weight ratio. It provides the rigidity of steel (110kg/mm² yield strength) while being 30% lighter, reducing worker fatigue and preventing structural sag over long spans.
Grade 1 is for high-precision tasks like aerospace or medical device machining with parallelism within ±0.02mm/m. Grade 2 is suitable for general industrial use, such as textile loom setup, with a tolerance of ±0.05mm/m.
Our rulers are designed for flexible storage. They can be hung vertically or placed flat for long periods without affecting their straightness. If stored for very long periods, a thin layer of industrial oil is recommended.
No, the 20μm anodized coating provides excellent corrosion resistance against oil and humidity. Unlike steel rulers, you do not need to apply oil during daily use.
Yes, we offer OEM and ODM services. We can produce customized rulers up to 6000mm with reinforced end caps or specific ribs to optimize load distribution for your unique application.
Yes, our rulers are verified via laser interferometry and can be provided with free calibration certificates, ensuring they meet ISO 1101 and ASME B89.5.2 standards for quality audits.
