Product Information

Full details

This guide is for anyone using the Stanley FatMax 8m Tape Measure. Its key benefit is providing accurate measurements with increased blade life, thanks to the Mylar coating and BladeArmor. However, keep in mind that the standout reach is 3m, which may not be sufficient for all applications. This tape measure features a patented reverse lock mechanism, a detachable hook, and a bi-material case for comfort and ease of use.
