Top 3 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

 

1. Is the 3.0 M straight edge flexible enough for slight curves?

   • No. As a medium-duty tool with a 65 mm deep Box Profile, it is designed for maximum rigidity and straightness. It cannot be flexed for curved surfaces.

2. How do I store this tool to maintain its accuracy?

   • Store it flat or hang it vertically on a wall rack. Avoid storing it diagonally or leaning it against a corner where sustained pressure could cause warping over time.

3. Does this straight edge include a spirit level?

   • No, the SEM3.0 is a dedicated straight edge. You place a separate, smaller spirit level onto the flat top of the profile to check for levelness across the 3.0 M span.
