🛠️ Folding Fiberglass Klein Tools 910 6: Portable & Durable Solution for On-the-Go Professionals Review

What the heck did I do my first 5 years as an electrician without one of these things? Whether you're doing any type of overhead work where roulette wrestling just isn't possible, or doing repetitive pipeline finishing work, this thing is magic. It's well built, stays open and closed with no issues, doesn't fold when held over the head, accurate, easy to read. Get one. You will not regret it.

I have two that should be used in a furniture store. When compared side by side, the difference is approximately 1/16 inch. Compared to my Tajima tape measure, the difference is almost 1/8 inch. Works well, light weight, easy to read and will be fine. if it were your only gauge. Otherwise it is meaningless for precise work. For drawing and electrics most likely quite good.

As a pipe fitter, I used similar rules a few years ago. This 6 foot folding rule is sturdier than the old one as it is made of fiberglass instead of wood. It's the same length as my old six foot ruler, so that's good. Works for carpenters too, as they carefully crafted multiples of sixteen inches of red. Sixteen, for you non-carpenters, are common centers for 2X4 spacing in construction. Conveniently, sixteen is a factor of forty-eight, so you can place three supports evenly spaced on a 4-foot…

We're fine, but we've seen others in our sport get their metrics going the wrong way, so they couldn't get their rulers straight.

There is an indoor version (regular) and it seems perfect for my household needs when I miss it. The good news is that it's made of heavy-duty nylon (according to the packaging, it's reinforced with fiberglass for extra strength). My former wooden ruler broke, this is the first time I've encountered fiberglass. I love how easy it is to read the black markings with the 1/16" markings clearly visible. The folding mechanism is durable and easy to use. Klein is an American company but I was happy…

I am an electrical engineer and needed a ruler to work on electrical equipment. This entire line is made of nylon-reinforced fiberglass and is non-conductive, according to Klein. There is a small stainless steel spring at the junction of each segment, but it is recessed and unlikely to touch anything dangerous. The ruler segments can be easily opened with little effort and locked in a 90 or 180 degree position. I prefer rulers for reading inside, as most of the time I measure relative to the…
