KESON OTR Series OTR18M50 Long Tape Measure, 50 ft L x 1/2 in W Blade, Fiberglass Blade

A Keson excellent seller. Since 1968 this style of Keson fiberglass tape has been providing customers with accurate measurements. They are used in the harshest conditions in which people measure, and they stand to the only test that matters: field performance. We cover each blade with two coats of PVC protected by double shield, one to bind the fiberglass strands and a second over the printed units, so the numbers don't wear away. We have made modifications to the housing over the years: better plastic and molding shapes for increased durability, double screws to hold the housing together in the event of a drop, better blade axle to reduce breakage due to the weight of the tape if dropped.
