Adhesive-Back Rulers

Free up your hands when measuring length over and over—no more lining up rulers or tape measures. These rulers stick to everything from toolboxes to lathe beds for a permanent measuring guide.

Extra-Flexible Steel

Combine the flexibility of plastic with the strength of metal. These rulers are bendy enough to conform to curved surfaces and durable enough to resist scrapes and scratches.

Tape Measures

The best of the best tape measures for everyday tasks—from Stanley to Lufkin to Milwaukee. Built to last, these tape measures have a coating on the blade that prevents the graduations from wearing or scratching off. Their durable plastic case won't crack when tossed into tool bags or dropped on the ground.

Lufkin Shockforce Series

Drop tested to 120 ft., these tape measures still work even if they fall from a 10-story building. A vinyl-coated case and raised metal edges on the front make them extra durable for tackling the toughest jobs, such as construction.

Loop a lanyard into the tether point to secure these tape measures when working from catwalks and other heights.
