Product Summary

Paolini Pocket Rules & PPR Rack-It

When you need vertical measurement, slide the stop off the end and insert it into the cut-out on the blade. Now your rule has a perfect stand to keep it upright while you use both hands to dial in the height of a router bit, saw blade or dado stack, matching it to the easy-to-read scale engraved on the end of the rule.

Easy-to-Use calibration designs. The inch model has 1/16″ and 1/32″ scales on both sides. Theyre lined up so if you need the finer scale, you just flip the rule over and youre there. Same thing for the end scale, just flip it over to look at finer or coarser graduations. Its a welcome feature if your shop lighting isnt perfect or if your eyesight isnt what it used to be. If you prefer metric, we offer the same rules with 1mm scales on both sides. If your work demands you use both inch and metric, weve got you covered. We offer a combo calibration, with 1/16″ and 1mm scales on one side and 1/32″ and 1mm on the other.

Two material choices and three calibration options. The bright white laser engraved scales on the Woodpecker Red anodized surface make the original aluminum Paolini Pocket Rule one of the easiest-to-read rules on the market, as well as one of the lightest. If you prefer a thinner rule, go for the stainless steel version. Both are milled to a precise 1-inch width. The anodized aluminum rule is 1/8″ thick and the stainless model is 1/16″ thick. Both are available with your choice of inch-only, metric-only or inch-metric combo calibrations. Regardless of the material or calibration choice you make, youll love the clean, precise look of our state-of-the-art laser engraving, as will generations of woodworkers to come.

To keep your Paolini Pocket Rules handy, we offer the Paolini Pocket Rule Rack-It. Like our other clever Rack-Its, the PPR Rack-It has three perfectly sized and shaped hooks making it just right to hold a full set of rules. Its a perfect fit for either the anodized aluminum or stainless steel rules.

Ordering Options: Single Rules or Get the Set and Save! Paolini Pocket Rules come in three different lengths. Choose from 6″, 8″ or 12″ (metric-only models are 150mm, 200mm and 300mm). You can choose any Paolini Pocket Rule by itself, or save some money with a set of three (same material, same calibration option). The sets are available with or without the Rack-It.
