Quality is never an accident;
it is always the result of
intelligent effort.

– John Ruskin

How does National Steel Rule set itself apart from the competition?

We ASC. No, that’s not spelled wrong. Asking our customers what they want and need from their rule manufacturer, created the ASC acronym that clearly
guides how we operate today:

A- Availability – The best products in the world don’t mean a thing if they aren’t readily available. Therefore, we maintain the largest rule inventory in the world today. Even during Covid, we have maintained exellent availability of our standard items.

S- Speed – Inventory, plus a huge manufacturing capacity and state of the art proprietary equipment, allow us to provide the fastest deliveries in the industry, standards and specials alike.

C- Consistency – The ever increasing demands of the industries we serve absolutely require that steel rule be truly consistent in its quality and characteristics. We are fully committed to providing that critical consistency.
