Good and sturdy, nice size, not to bulky. Strong magnet on the end of the tape, holds the weight of the tape if you want to get a measure from a height. One of the better tapes I’ve used as an electrician.
Bought this for use at work the magnet comes in handy the numbers are big and clear to see the tape retracts slow and is of a decent quality / finish
They have a strong magnet on the end hook which is useful for setting out metal stud work.
The manufacturers claim a throw out length of 3.4m, which is slightly longer that realty, it’s more like 3.2m if you hold it really steadily. This throw out length is only achievable if the tape is brand new, once it’s been used daily for about a month, you will be lucky to get 2m.
Like any similar metal tape measure, if you manage to kink the tape during normal usage, then it’s days are numbered.. it will crack and snap very quickly once this has happened. They are no tougher than any other similar brands.
They are definitely worth about the 12 which I normally pay for them, but well overpriced when offered for 20 or more.
Great tape. I would be on my 2nd fatmax in the time I’ve had this aprox 3 month(ground worker) & this is showing little signs of wear at this stage. Being in my 40’s the sights going a bit the big numbers & doubled sided help. Would recommend.
Easiest to use when in your hand due to the gap to hold your tape BUT please fix the belt clip! The wire belt clip doesn’t clip onto lops or material pockets (i.e. my utility shorts/trousers) it just pushes them dow
Anyway, excellent quality tapes. Buy one!
I bought this tape measure because it is metric only and is easy to read,it is also printed on both sides of the tape which I find very useful. It has a strong magnetic which is great if your a metal worker like me. The blade is wide and sturdy which stops it from bending easily. Overall in my opinion a very good tape measure.
Great and dylurable tape. Bought this as I don’t really use inches in my work. Only downside is that is dosent retract as easy as my stanley fat max tape.
It works great until now, never dropped down from my hands so I don’t know how strong is it, magnet is a great plus when you are working with metallic objects! just I’d like the numbers be in n a white background.
