Ruler Metal 15cm

Clinical Application

A compact, rigid measuring instrument intended for precise linear measurements in operative and clinic settings. Common uses include measuring wound or incision length, sizing grafts and skin flaps, documenting lesion dimensions for pathology, confirming implant or prosthesis positioning, and intraoperative communication of distances between anatomic landmarks. Its low-profile form makes it useful in confined fields such as dermatology, plastic surgery, ENT, oral and maxillofacial procedures, and minor outpatient procedures.

Design & Configuration

The straight, flat geometry lies flush against tissue or dressings to provide stable, repeatable measurements. Permanent graduated markings on the working surface reduce parallax and wear compared with painted scales, supporting reliable measurement over repeated use. The 15 cm overall length balances reach and maneuverability for both small-field and general-purpose measurements in the operating room and clinic.
