Cast Iron Straight Edges are widely used for erection, commissioning and leveling purpose. I- section straight edges is used to check the surface flatness of large precision area such as surface tables and machine tables etc. Cast iron straight edges are also used for blue matching during hand scrapping operations .I-section straight edges have wide and parallel working surface for application of spirit level. Luthra I –Section straight Edge are made as per IS 5268:1991 Grade-1.

Aluminium straight edges are widely used in industries where along with accuracy weight is also important factor. Light Weight Aluminum Straight Edge feature of these aluminium straight edge make them easy to use especially when using longer straight edge this is undoubtedly of great significance. These straight edge are made of aluminium section with steel strip reinforced on working surfaces for better working and durability. Each Luthra aluminium straight edges is provided with computerized calibration certificate traceable to NPL (Govt. Of India)

Tools Makers Knife Edges. These knife edges are manufactured from 100 mm to 500 mm length as per IS 3512:1966. Intended for very accurate work, these have one working edge, which is bevelled and very slightly rounded off. The working edge is finished either by grinding or lapping. We make use of high grade alloy steel in hardened form to design these edges. Further, our Knife edges are suitably heat treated to remove internal stress. Our Tool Maker’s knife edges are supplied with computerized calibration certificate traceable to National Physical Laboratory (NPL, Govt Of India ) New Delhi.

Engineers Straight Steel Edges. These are widely used for checking straightness and marking purposes. Steel straight edges are made using high quality steel and are available in hardened and unhardened form. Our steel straight edges are hand scrapped or lapped to achieve the desired accuracy as per standards. Light in weight, design of these straight edges make them ideal to use in various industries such as Glass, Fabrication and windmill. The Engineer’s steel straight edges of bigger size are provided with milling slots to reduce weight. Our Steel Straight edges are supplied with computerized calibration certificate traceable to National Physical Laboratory (NPL, Govt Of India ) New Delhi.
