You'll love this ultra-compact tape measure's self-locking feature when extending the blade for use—here's the ideal length for general woodworking with easy-to-read imperial markings.
Since most woodworkers rarely need a tape measure longer than 16 ft. to break down lengths of common lumber and sheet goods or to measure project parts, we think this compact Sure-Lock Standard Tape Measure will become your go-to favorite! It features a 1''-wide steel blade that self-locks when you extend it—a big help when you need one hand to steady the blade and the other to hold a pencil. The bright, white blade has easy-to-read imperial markings. Its top scale is laid out in 1/16'' graduations, and the finer bottom scale reads in 1/32'' increments with fractions labeled every 1/8''.
