Dekor 1704 Aluminium Internal Rendering Rule is a professional‑grade levelling tool with a 3‑metre profile, engineered to produce true, even, and smooth surfaces during plaster and gypsum work in large interiors, halls, corridors, and spacious apartments. Its single‑piece profile is optimised for indoor conditions — lightweight, rigid, and built to last. Supplied as 1 piece per unit.

Product Information

Features & Benefits

• 3 m Length for Large Interiors: True straightness across a full 3‑metre run in one pass; fewer joins, faster progress, and consistent flawless results in large apartments, offices, halls, and long corridors
• Interior‑Optimised Profile: Balanced, lighter section than exterior rules; less arm fatigue when held overhead for long periods yet rigid enough to stay perfectly straight
• One‑Piece Seamless Build: Zero joints; no thickness variation or undulation as the rule is drawn — guaranteeing uniform evenness wall‑to‑wall
• Anodised Protection: Resists gypsum, cement, and lime deposits; cleans easily, does not stain, and will not rust or corrode
• Dual‑Edge Service: Both working edges are fully usable — flip the rule over for extended service life when one side wears
• Dual‑Grip Ready: Standard pull grips fitted to both ends allow two people to work in perfect symmetry; improved control and smoother finish
• Manageable Transport: Despite its 3‑metre span, aluminium lightness means one person can carry it; full length should be planned when transporting or storing indoors

Application Areas

• Large Interior Rendering: Gypsum and sand‑cement plaster in grand reception rooms, open‑plan living spaces, long corridors, and office floors
• Ceilings & High Zones: Levelling control in tall rooms, beneath cornices, and along wall‑ceiling junctions
• Wall–Ceiling Lines: Straightening long sightlines in open‑plan spaces; eliminating shadow‑revealed ripples and unevenness
• Gypsum & Finishing Coats: Achieving a mirror‑smooth final surface with thin‑layer gypsum, filler, and ready‑mixed skim coats
• Refurbishment & Renewal: Full‑room makeovers delivering consistent standards across every surface rather than patch repairs
• Site & Volume Projects: Fast, consistent finishing across housing stock, developments, and commercial fit‑outs

Internal vs External Rule — Key Differences

• Internal Rule (1704): Lightweight optimised profile; outstanding results indoors, easier to handle, cost‑effective. Not for prolonged exposure to outdoor weather.
• External Rule (1708): Thicker, wider section; engineered to resist wind, rain, sun, and temperature extremes — correspondingly heavier.
• Both share identical nominal lengths but differ in profile depth and weight; an external rule can be used indoors but adds unnecessary fatigue.

Usage & Maintenance Guidelines

• Rinse with water before and after use to remove gypsum, cement, and mortar residues immediately; hardened material compromises edge straightness
• Do not drop — a bent profile will not pull true; the 3‑metre span carries greater distortion risk if impacted
• Carry with two people supporting it; do not lift from one end alone — it may bend under its own weight
• Store fully supported on a flat surface; do not hang suspended from one end for long periods
• Dress lightly worn edges with fine abrasive or a file; deep impact damage may require professional straightening
• Keep indoors in a dry, shaded location; do not leave outside — interior sections degrade gradually under weather exposure

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the 3 m internal rule be used externally?
Not recommended. The interior profile is not engineered for outdoor exposure; prolonged wind, rain, and sun may cause warping. Choose Dekor 1708 for exterior facades.

Is the 3 m length jointed or solid?
Solid one‑piece extrusion with no joins; plan transport and storage — may not fit inside standard passenger vehicles.

Can one person use it?
Possible over short sections, but two‑person operation with grips fitted to both ends gives the smoothest, most controlled results.

Will grips from other brands fit?
Manufactured to general standards; Dekor‑branded grips are recommended for guaranteed fit and trouble‑free operation.

Can it be straightened if bent?
It may be realigned, but will not fully recover original precision once deformed; avoiding impacts is essential.

Does it come as a single unit?
Yes — supplied as 1 piece per package; bulk order quantities may be specified when ordering multiple units.
