Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a technical ruler and a regular school ruler?

LENIAR technical rulers are made of durable plastic or metal and offer highly accurate measurements. Unlike school rulers, they have a beveled edge for applying ink precisely without smudging, and often include special grooves for technical pens. They are designed for professional drafting, where every millimeter and clean line matters.

Which template should I choose for lettering and technical symbols?

For technical lettering and standardized symbols, we recommend tried-and-tested KOH-I-NOOR templates. When choosing one, focus on the required letter height in millimeters. These templates are made of transparent material, allowing you to position them precisely over your drawing. They are ideal for students of architecture and technical fields who need clean, legible lettering.

What is a drafting triangle with a sliding guide used for?

A LENIAR drafting triangle with a sliding guide makes it much easier to draw parallel lines. Its integrated scale and sliding guide let you mark distances quickly and accurately without repeatedly measuring with a ruler. It is an irreplaceable tool for creating technical drawings when you need to maintain precise spacing between lines while drawing as quickly as possible.

How should I care for technical templates so they last a long time?

Store KOH-I-NOOR templates in a case to prevent scratches and preserve their transparency. After use, clean off any graphite or ink residue with a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh solvents, which can damage the plastic surface and cause it to become cloudy. With proper care, this tool will last for years without losing its drafting accuracy.

Do I need a special ruler for working with ink?

Yes, when working with ink or technical pens, choose LENIAR rulers with a special inking edge or raised edge. This feature keeps the pen tip from touching the ruler’s edge, preventing ink from running underneath the tool. This helps prevent unwanted smudges and keeps your drawing clean and professionally finished.
