Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What makes this stainless steel metal ruler better than a plastic ruler?
A: Unlike plastic rulers, this stainless steel metal ruler resists flexing, warping, and nicks over time. Its rigid straight edge is ideal for cutting against with a craft knife or box cutter — a plastic ruler can be damaged or slide unpredictably. The non-skid backing adds another layer of stability that most basic plastic rulers lack.
Q: What is the non-skid backing made of, and does it really work?
A: The non-skid backing is designed to grip smooth surfaces such as desks, cutting mats, and paper. It significantly reduces the ruler shifting during cutting or drawing tasks, helping you achieve straighter, more accurate lines with greater confidence and control.
Q: Is this ruler suitable for use with rotary cutters or craft knives?
A: Yes! The stainless steel straight edge is fully compatible with rotary cutters, craft knives, and box cutters. The metal edge won't be cut or damaged the way a plastic ruler would, making it a reliable tool for quilting, paper crafts, and precision cutting tasks.
