Metric Only or Both?

When it comes to choosing the type of tape you want, many people are confused by this choice. In the United kingdom, Americas and Australia, Imperial measurements are still widely used alongside the metric system. In Europe and Asia, the metric system is the most widely used unit of measurement.

When it comes down to the choice, this is purely up to what unit you need to measure, and also whether you find it easier to see just metric. In the United kingdom, materials are historically communicated in imperial units, however designs and construction plans are more popularly communicated in metric.

Either way, metric only or imperial/metric, you can be sure that you’re measurements are accurate with any products from the OX Tools measuring range

    Everything great except the hook end of the tape measure protrudes all faces, it cannot be used to measure distances to the side of the tape, because when pulled the tape just folds over. Overall a decent bit of kit but won’t do what I bought it fo

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersA work mate had a metric only tape I borrowed it. it was brilliant this one is good but only has measurements on top side I wanted them on underside like his as it makes work a lot easier but other than that it’s a tape measure it measures fine reminds me of a fatmax

    4.0 out of 5 stars It’s a tape measure

    Solid tape measure, bit on the Bolky side but very sturdy great for use on building sites and DIY. Only down side it doesn’t have the measurements on the bottom side of the tape.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersVery good tape measure. Nice smooth glide, feels robust. Thick tape with clear, readable, metric numbers.

    Let down by absolutely awful packaging. Nobody wants or needs this razor sharp plastic blister pack nonsense anymore. Disappointing.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great tape measure. Awful packaging.

    I don’t. Usually pay this much for a tape but this one. Is well worth it .large numbers so my bad eyes can see to read it and looks pretty robust just the job thanks a very happy 73 old

    The end of my tape measure just broke off!
    Thought this product was meant to be sturdy.
    Disappointed.
    I think I should get a free tape measure as iv only had this one 6 months and it’s barely been used.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersGreat tape measure! Nice size and the tape is really strong with a nice return rather than snapping your hand off! Much better than the main brand name versions I have been through last year 4 or 5 of them!
