Product Information
Full details
The Wiha 33232 Longlife All In One is a professional-grade 2-meter folding ruler designed for tradespeople and DIY enthusiasts who demand high precision and rugged durability. Crafted from glass fiber-reinforced polyamide, this tool provides excellent resistance to chemicals, moisture, and wear, ensuring it remains accurate even in harsh job-site conditions. While it is engineered for long-term reliability and features a unique double-sided scale for versatility, users should note that the specialized joint tensioning system requires a brief period of familiarization to master the 90-degree latching mechanism.

Troubleshooting
Joints feel stiff or do not latch properly

Depth gauge sliding too easily
Ensure the gauge is properly seated in the fixation hole when not in use to maintain friction levels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This ruler is ready for immediate use out of the box. To maintain the integrity of the joints, avoid applying excessive force that could overextend the hinges beyond their natural limit. While the joints are dirt-resistant, it is recommended to wipe the ruler down with a dry cloth after working in particularly dusty conditions, such as after cutting masonry or drywall. Avoid storing the ruler in direct, high-heat environments for extended periods, as this can affect the tension of the plastic material. The ruler is fully compliant with EU standard accuracy class II, making it suitable for professional manufacturing and construction tolerances.
