50 ft Engineers Long Tape
This 50 ft engineers long tape measure provides extended reach for site layout and surveying tasks. The fiberglass blade resists stretching and moisture, while the white surface with clear coating keeps 1/10 and 1/100 ft graduations readable in bright conditions. It suits professionals who need reliable long-distance measurement without a steel tape’s weight or conductivity.
Closed ABS Case with Manual Rewind
The black ABS plastic case encloses the blade fully, protecting it from grit and impact during transport and storage. A folding hook tip anchors on edges or studs, and the manual rewind gives direct control over blade return speed. No belt clip is fitted, so the tape rides in a bag or toolbox rather than on a waistband.
Upgrade from Short Steel Tapes
This model replaces shorter pocket tapes when the work exceeds their stand-out and length limits. The 1/2 in wide fiberglass blade lays flat on grade or formwork without kinking, and the decimal-foot graduations eliminate fraction conversion on engineered drawings. Buyers who need metric markings or a belt-clip carry should consider other options.

Questions about this item
What graduation scale is printed on the 50 ft fiberglass blade?
The blade is marked in feet with 1/10 and 1/100 ft graduations for precise engineering measurements.
What are the case dimensions and material for mounting or storage?
The closed ABS plastic case measures 7.250 in by 6.000 in and has no belt clip for attachment.

Rewind the blade manually using the crank; there is no spring lock, so the hook must be folded before the blade fully seats in the case.
