Product Information

Full details

The Maped Twist n Flex 3-piece geometry set is designed for students and professionals who require durable, reliable drafting tools that can survive the rigors of a busy backpack or desk. The set includes a 15cm ruler, a 60-degree set square, and a 180-degree protractor, all crafted from a specialized flexible material that resists snapping and shattering. While these tools offer unmatched durability, users should note that the inherent flexibility of the material means they are not intended for use as rigid straight-edges for heavy-duty precision cutting or scoring with utility blades.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the material actually unbreakable?

The material is designed to be highly shock-resistant and flexible, meaning it will survive bending and dropping that would break standard hard plastic rulers.

Can I use these for school geometry tests?

Yes, these tools are standard geometric instruments suitable for most school curricula.

Does the set contain any harmful chemicals?

No, the Maped Twist n Flex range is manufactured without phthalates.

What is the length of the ruler included?

This specific set includes a 15cm ruler.

Are the measurements accurate?

Yes, the tools feature precision-printed markings consistent with standard measuring requirements.

Can I use these with a craft knife?

We do not recommend using these with sharp blades, as the flexible material can be nicked or damaged by cutting tools.

Troubleshooting

Tools appear slightly curved after storage

Lay the tools flat on a hard, level surface for a few hours to allow them to regain their original shape.

Markings appear faded

Gently clean the surface with a damp cloth to remove any dust or graphite residue that may be obscuring the print.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

There is no setup required for this product; the tools are ready for immediate use upon removal from the packaging. To ensure the longevity of the printed markings, avoid exposing the tools to harsh chemical solvents or abrasive cleaners. Cleaning should be performed using a soft, damp cloth with mild soap if necessary. When not in use, it is best to store the tools flat to ensure maximum straightness for future drafting projects. Keep the set away from direct heat sources, such as radiators or extreme sunlight, to maintain the integrity of the flexible polymer.
