Staedtler - Mars Triangular Student Drafting Scales
Mars Triangular Student Drafting Scales
Master precise architectural drawings with durable scales
Dimensional stability matters when you're scaling drawings or checking proportions, measurements that drift with temperature changes compromise accuracy. Staedtler manufactures these triangular scales from specially selected plastics engineered to resist expansion and contraction, maintaining consistent graduations through studio temperature fluctuations and handling. The architect scale provides ten common ratios (3/32, 3/16, 1/8, 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 3/4, 1, 1 1/2, and 3), while the engineer scale offers six decimal divisions (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60) for civil and site work.
Triangular construction places three graduated edges at your fingertips, eliminating the need to flip a flat scale repeatedly while working. Solid white plastic provides clear contrast against drawings, making it easy to align edges and read measurements quickly. Long-lasting graduations resist fading through repeated use and cleaning. At twelve inches, these scales handle standard sheet sizes while remaining portable enough for field work or client meetings. The lightweight construction reduces fatigue during extended drafting sessions without sacrificing the rigidity needed for accurate measuring and drawing guide work.
