Keson MC-1810-50 tape measure 50 ft yellow/white

Long-distance layout tool

The Keson MC-1810-50 tape measure extends 50 ft for jobs that exceed the reach of standard pocket tapes. Its yellow and white fiberglass blade resists stretching and moisture, so readings stay consistent across repeated pulls on construction sites or survey work. The hook end secures the tape to nails or stakes when working alone.

Double-sided graduations

One face shows 1/8 in increments alongside 1/10 and 1/100 ft scales, while the reverse carries SAE and Engineers graduations. This layout lets crews switch between fractional-inch and decimal-foot readings without changing tools, reducing transcription errors on mixed-specification plans.

Fifty-foot practical limit

At 50 ft the blade covers most residential set-outs and interior rough-ins in a single pull. Longer runs require repositioning or a second tape, so buyers who routinely measure beyond this distance will need a different solution. The 7.200 by 5.600 in case fits in a tool bag but is too large for a trouser pocket.
