Product Information

Features & Benefits

• 3 m Length for Wide Facades: Levels a full 3‑metre strip in one pass; fewer joins, faster progress, and consistent evenness across large runs. Ideal for building exteriors, factories, and commercial structures
• Exterior‑Spec Reinforced Profile: Wider, thicker section than internal rules; stands up to wind, rain, sun, and temperature variation without bending, sagging, or deforming
• One‑Piece Seamless Build: Zero joints; no thickness variation or undulation as the rule is drawn — guaranteeing a perfectly smooth, uniform surface
• Anodised Protection: Enhanced chemical resistance against cement and lime; will not rust or corrode, residues wipe away easily
• Dual‑Edge Service: Both working edges are fully usable — flip the rule over when one side wears for extended service life
• Balanced Weight Distribution: At roughly 3 kg, stiffness and portability are well balanced; guided comfortably by two people, with confident control through long working runs
• Standard Grip Compatibility: Pull grips fitted to both ends make drawing effortless; enables steady, even progress from both sides simultaneously

Application Areas

• Wide External Facades: Render levelling on multi‑storey blocks, housing developments, commercial buildings, and factory elevations
• Insulation & ETICS: Evenness control and final smoothing over large‑area thermal insulation render systems
• Monolithic & Pre‑cast Structures: Render correction across large flat facade panels and joint zones
• Refurbishment & Renewal: Over‑coating and levelling new render layers during external facade renovation
• General Construction: High‑volume serial rendering on residential and public‑sector projects
• Tall Buildings: Efficient work from scaffolding; extended length covers wide swathes between guardrails with fewer moves

Usage & Maintenance Guidelines

• Rinse with water before and after use to remove cement and lime residues immediately; hardened material compromises edge straightness
• Do not drop — a bent profile will not pull true; the 3‑metre length carries greater risk of distortion 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 in a dry, shaded location; do not leave exposed to prolonged direct sunlight

Frequently Asked Questions

What distinguishes the 3 m external rule from an internal rule?
External profiles are wider, thicker, and anodised for weather resistance; engineered to endure exterior exposure. Internal rules use thinner sections and may deform with prolonged outdoor use.

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

Is it heavy to carry — can one person use it?
Best operated by two people with grips fitted to both ends; while one person can manage it, confident control becomes more difficult.

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.
