Product Information

Measure tapes often have a floating tang or hook at the end, sometimes magnetic, to secure them in place when in use which is ideal if working alone or in awkward spaces. HIGHLY POLISHED CHROME CASE WITH RUBBER GRIP to ensure slip resistant hold to withstand heavy use on the jobsite. NEW DESIGN AND IMPROVED ERGONOMICS: Engineered to fit comfortably in the palm of your hand with a bi-material casing for excellent grip. Our grandfathers used them, our fathers used them and, the chances are, a good many of us have used them too.

The blade is made from high grade steel, all are class II accurate whilst the soft grip case provides a quality, comfortable feel not achieved by some other brands whilst also providingg added protection to knocks and scrapes. IMPROVED BLADE DURABILITY: Built to last with an abrasion-resistant blade coating plus 20cm BladeArmor™ coating to reinforce the most vulnerable part of the blade and reduce the risk of kinks or tears. Whether on the belt, in the hand, or on the jobsite, choose STANLEY FATMAX to be sure you’re equipped with the very best of our best.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. Highly polished chrome case with rubber grip to ensure slip resistant hold to withstand heavy use on the jobsite. Nowadays, however, Stanley have abandoned the metal case substituting it for a more advanced impact resistant ABS plastic case.

This should give no cause for concern - the Powerlock is still one of our most popular tapes regardless of length. TRU-ZERO™ HOOK for precise inner and outer measurements, moving back and forth along the securing rivets to account for the hook thickness. Whilst we sell many other brands of high quality tape measures, the brand we are most proud to be associated with is Stanley.
