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.

A fan favorite for a reason. With an extra protective coating on the blade and a thick, rubber cover on the case, these tape measures outlast the toughest jobs, from construction to machining. The blade is extra wide, so you can extend it at least 11 ft. before it collapses. All are precision made and tested in the U.S.

Don't fumble awkwardly with a thumb button. These tape measures have a release lever on the bottom that falls naturally under your fingers. Squeeze it to zip the blade back. With a bright orange case, these tape measures are easy to spot in toolboxes and on busy bench tops.

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.
