Applications of Granite Straightedges
Granite straightedges are essential tools in industrial inspection, precision measurement, layout marking, equipment installation, and construction engineering. They provide a reliable and stable reference for a wide range of precision applications.
Material Composition
Our granite straightedges are crafted from carefully selected natural stone, processed through precision machining and fine hand polishing. The result is a dark-colored, fine-grained, uniform stone with excellent stability, strength, and hardness. Granite straightedges maintain high accuracy under heavy loads and normal temperature conditions, and feature:
-
Rust-free surface
-
Acid and alkali resistance
-
High wear resistance
-
Non-magnetic and dimensional stability
Key Features of Granite Straightedges
-
Superior Physical Properties – Natural granite undergoes long-term aging, resulting in a fine, uniform structure with minimal thermal expansion and no internal stress, ensuring it does not deform.
-
High Rigidity and Hardness – The granite surface is extremely durable and resistant to wear, maintaining long-term precision.
-
Temperature Stability – Granite straightedges remain accurate under varying environmental temperatures without affecting flatness or surface appearance.
-
Smooth Measurement – The straightedge surface does not develop scratches or magnetic effects, allowing smooth and effortless movement during inspections.
-
Corrosion Resistance & Low Maintenance – Resistant to acid and alkali solutions, rust-free, and easy to clean, offering a long service life.
-
Ergonomic Design – Each straightedge features weight-reducing holes for easier handling and operation.
Advantages of Granite Straightedges
Granite straightedges, made from natural stone and finely processed, combine high stability, durability, and precision. Their key benefits include:
-
High hardness and strength – Ensuring precise measurements even under heavy loads
-
Corrosion and rust resistance – Safe for long-term use in industrial environments
-
Non-magnetic and dimensionally stable – Ideal for sensitive precision inspections
-
Wear-resistant surface – Maintains accuracy over prolonged usage
As a reference measuring tool, granite straightedges provide an ideal flat surface for inspecting instruments, machinery components, and other precision parts, ensuring reliable results every time.
