Product Information

Manufactured to last, the STANLEY® FATMAX® tape measure features an abrasion-resistant blade coating, while the first 20cm is treated with a BladeArmor™ coating for added protection against kinking or tearing in the most vulnerable part of the blade. These tapes are used by construction and property professionals, surveyors and engineers throughout the world and for good reason! Our premium STANLEY FATMAX range includes a selection of our highest quality and best performing tools and equipment, giving serious Pro’s a significant advantage over the job.

The most common tend to use a curved metallic ribbon that remains stiff and straight when extended, with lock mechanisms designed to keep the length in place, which then retracts into a coil when not in use. By listening, by testing, by dropping tapes, bending tapes, twisting them and stretching them in the scorching heat, the dripping wet and the bitter cold, Stanley test and develop all their tools to be the very best they can be. That's even more impressive when you consider that we sell almost twice the number of Stanley tapes than the next two best selling manufacturers put together.This premium tool is printed on both sides of the blade to enable easier overhead measurements, while the innovative new Multi-Catch Hook has been redesigned to provide extra contact surface and grip. Stanley produce some of the World's most popular surveyors tapes from conventional closed case fibreglass surveyors tapes (both 30m and in metric/imperial or metric only forms) and closed case steel tapes (in standard or FatMax forms) to the ever popular 30m/100ft open reel fibreglass tape. A tape measure is effectively a flexible ruler that is usually sprung on a retractable mechanism for easy storage, helping to measure the distance or size of any space or object. metres The TRU-ZERO™ hook helps to achieve precise inner and outer measurements, moving back and forth along the securing rivets.
