D-Tech Aluminium Multi-Angle Ruler 500mm Four-Fold

At a Glance: Portable 500mm four-fold aluminium layout ruler with four adjustable arms, locking corner knobs and metric and imperial graduations.

The D-Tech DTME01500 Aluminium Multi-Angle Ruler is a versatile measuring, marking and angle-transfer tool designed to simplify complex layout work. Its four adjustable and sliding arms can be positioned to match irregular corners, angled openings, repeated shapes and custom outlines, creating a practical template that can be transferred directly onto the workpiece. Aluminium construction keeps the ruler lightweight and portable while providing the rigidity required for accurate positioning. Clearly marked millimetre and inch graduations make it suitable for both metric and imperial projects, while the adjustable fastening knobs allow each corner to be positioned and secured. When the work is complete, the four-fold design closes into a compact shape for convenient storage and transport.

A flexible template for complex angles and shapes

Instead of measuring and calculating every angle separately, the four arms can be adjusted around the required shape and secured in position. The completed layout can then be moved onto timber, flooring, paving, tiles or other materials, helping to reduce repeated measurements and improve the consistency of cuts and markings.

Product highlights

Four adjustable arms: Can be repositioned and slid to create custom shapes, angles and measuring templates.
500mm overall format: Provides practical reach for a broad range of layout and measuring applications.
Angle-transfer capability: Captures an existing shape or corner so it can be transferred directly to the workpiece.
Adjustable fastening knobs: Allow the arms to be positioned and secured at the required angles.
Aluminium construction: Combines low weight with the rigidity required for accurate marking and layout work.
Metric and imperial markings: Clearly marked in millimetres and inches for versatile project use.
Foldable design: Folds into a compact form for easier storage, handling and transport.

Extra Information

The larger ruler sections have a measuring range of up to 250mm.
The smaller ruler sections have a measuring range of up to 120mm.
The arms can be adjusted to form squares, rectangles, angled outlines and irregular four-sided profiles.
Both millimetre and inch markings are provided for metric and imperial measurements.
The ruler can be folded after use for compact storage in a toolbox, tool bag or workshop drawer.

Pro Tips

Place the ruler directly against the corners or edges being copied before tightening the adjustment knobs.
Tighten each knob gradually while checking that the arms have not moved away from the required position.
Use a fine pencil, marking knife or suitable marker to trace the inside or outside edge of the completed template.
When repeating a shape, check that all fastening knobs remain secure before marking each additional workpiece.
For highly visible finished surfaces, test the chosen marking tool on an offcut before marking the final material.
Use the ruler to capture awkward corners before cutting flooring, paving materials, timber or boards to size.

How to Use

Inspect the ruler arms, measurement markings and fastening knobs before use.
Loosen the fastening knobs enough to allow the arms to slide and pivot freely.
Position the ruler over or against the area, corner or shape that must be copied.
Slide and rotate each arm until the ruler follows the required outline accurately.
Hold the ruler in position and tighten the fastening knobs carefully.
Check that the arms are secure and that the captured shape has not shifted.
Move the ruler to the workpiece and trace the required outline using a suitable marking tool.
Confirm the marked dimensions before cutting, drilling or removing material.
Loosen the knobs and fold the ruler into its compact storage position after use.

Features

Four-fold configuration: The connected arms open and adjust to form a wide variety of custom profiles.
Adjustable sliding arms: Each arm can be repositioned to suit the dimensions and shape of the work area.
Corner fastening knobs: Aluminium adjustment knobs help secure the ruler once the desired layout has been created.
Dual measurement scale: Clearly marked with both millimetre and inch graduations.
Aluminium ruler body: Lightweight, portable and suitable for frequent workshop or jobsite use.
Reusable stencil: The configured ruler can be used as a template for marking repeated shapes and angles.
Compact storage: Folds down when not in use to take up less space in a toolbox or tool bag.

Benefits

Simplifies difficult layouts: Helps capture irregular shapes and multiple angles without relying on separate measurements and calculations.
Reduces measuring errors: The required profile can be transferred directly from the work area to the material being marked.
Saves preparation time: Four connected arms allow several sides of a shape to be positioned at the same time.
Improves repeatability: Once secured, the ruler can be used to mark the same shape onto multiple workpieces.
Easy to carry: The lightweight aluminium construction and foldable design make it convenient for mobile work.
Versatile project use: Suitable for construction, manufacturing, flooring, paving, plumbing, timber work and general DIY tasks.

Application

Transferring angles and irregular shapes
Creating custom marking templates and stencils
Flooring and laminate layout work
Bricklaying and paving layouts
Plumbing and pipe-positioning projects
Timber, board and lumber marking
Construction and installation work
Manufacturing and fabrication layouts
DIY renovation and home-improvement projects

Safety

Wear properly fitting protective gloves when handling and positioning the ruler.
Always select the correct measuring and marking tool for the task.
Keep fingers clear of the folding joints and sliding sections to avoid pinching injuries.
Do not overtighten the fastening knobs, as excessive force may damage the threads or ruler arms.
Inspect the ruler for bent arms, damaged edges or loose components before use.
Do not use a damaged ruler where inaccurate positioning could result in an incorrect or unsafe cut.
Secure the workpiece before cutting, drilling or machining along the transferred markings.
Wear the appropriate eye, ear and dust protection when using power tools after completing the layout.
