Measurement of greater distances with measuring magnifiers is possible only to a limited extent due to the length of the rods. RL metal measuring rods are the optimum supplement for quick and simple determination of lengths and distances. The four lengths of 100 mm, 212 mm, 300 mm and 400 mm are supplied with one or two reading magnifiers (crack magnifier RL-10-x without scale) in a transport box. The reading magnifiers are moved along a guiding rail which is mounted on the measuring rod. When measuring lengths and distances ensure that the measuring rod is parallel to the object to be measured, to prevent measuring errors. The RL steel measuring rods, which are manufactured with an accuracy of± 0.02 mm, do not contain a test report in the scope of delivery.

The four standard lengths of the metal measuring rods are supplied with one or two 10-x reading magnifiers as desired. In addition both versions can be supplied as separate models with an LED light. Please note that when using two magnifiers the minimum reading distance from magnifier centre to magnifier centre is approx. 32 mm. Upon request the metal measuring rods can be supplied for an extra charge with a factory calibration certificate (300 and 400 mm) or DAkkS (100 and 212 mm). This increases the delivery time by approx. two weeks. For installation purposes, we offer the four metal measuring rods under order number RL-OA as pure measuring rods without magnifiers or other attachments.
