    Flexible Tape Measures

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Tape Measures. Flexible Tape Measures.
    Whether you're finding the length of winding cables or the circumference of drive belts, these tape measures accurately measure around corners and curves. Made of coated fiberglass, they're soft enough to wrap into a coil, yet strong enough that they won't stretch, so they stay accurate over time. Brass caps prevent the ends from fraying and tearing.

    Folding Rulers

    Combine the rigidity of a ruler with the portability of a tape measure. A favorite among carpenters, these rulers stay straight even when extended up to 6 ft., then fold up to the length of a phone to tuck into your tool belt. Bend them at their joints to draw angles and measure corners.

    Rulers with Extension

    The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these rulers won't warp, fade, or crack if rinsed or rained on. Their joints snap into place when you bend them 90°, so they stay rigid as you measure and draw right angles.
    Rulers with Extension—Measure the inside of objects, such as drawers, where a standard folding ruler would either be too long or too short. These rulers have a sliding extension, so you can lengthen the ruler to fit within the object you're measuring.

    Easy-Carry Long Tape Measures

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Tape Measures. Easy-Carry Long Tape Measures.
    A favorite among surveyors, these tape measures have a large, rubber-coated handle for a comfortable grip when trekking long distances. Choose them for outdoor and dirty jobs—an open case lets dirt, sand, and other debris fall away, so they won’t clog up the reel. Their blade extends 50 ft. or farther, long enough to measure a semi-trailer.
    Automatic Blade Lock—Extend the blade and it locks in place automatically. These tape measures are especially useful for solo jobs since they free up your hands for other tasks.
    Coated Fiberglass Blade—These blades bend without breaking, so they're best for measuring curved surfaces, such as silos. The choice for wet environments, they won't rust from water. They also won't conduct electricity when working near conduit and powerlines. A coating prevents the graduations from wearing or scratching off.

    Static-Control Dial Calipers

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Calipers. Static-Control Dial Calipers.
    Prevent static from damaging sensitive electronics as you measure them. The fiberglass body drains static away from your workpiece so you don't pass along harmful charges.
    To calculate your final measurement, simply add the value on the dial to the number on the main scale. These calipers are battery-free, so they’re always ready to use. However, the glass dial and internal components can break if accidentally dropped.
