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.

Stanley

Your standard Stanley tape measures.

Stanley PowerLock

The thumb button easily glides when you press it and holds the blade firmly in place, so it won't creep forward or backward as you work.

0.1" Numeric Graduations—A must-have for engineers, these tape measures have a scale in tenths of an inch to easily multiply values.

When precision measurements are required for quality control or by regulation, use a tape measure that includes a calibration certificate traceable to NIST. The certificate states that the tape measure has passed a test for accuracy, so you can be confident your measurements are correct and consistent.

Diameter-Measuring Tape Measures

Wrap around duct, pipe, and other cylindrical objects to find their diameter without complex calculations. These tape measures are ideal for already mounted objects since you don't need to take your system apart. Also known as tree tapes.

Standard Scale

Take math out of the equation completely. After wrapping the blade around an object, find the number that overlaps with zero—that's your diameter.

Manual Blade Return—Guide the blade back by hand or using the wheel on the side of the case.

Coated Steel Blade—A coating on the blade prevents the graduations from wearing or scratching off.

Adhesive-Back Vertical Rulers

For repeated height and depth measurements, stick these rulers to walls, tanks, and other vertical surfaces. Their numbers are printed from bottom to top or top to bottom, so you don't have to tilt your head to read them. Since these rulers permanently adhere to surfaces, they free up your hands as you work—no more lining up rulers or tape measures.

Extra-Flexible Plastic

These rulers are flexible enough to conform to curved surfaces without snapping.
