Q

Qwerty

So here it is...... a tape measure! Hard to get excited about I know, but bare with me......


This FISCO metric only big tape is a class I tape measure, meaning it is the highest, most accurate class of tape measure around. It is in some circumstances twice as accurate as some of the tape measures we all use on a daily basis. I know its all relative as the measure taken and then transferred to a tile will always be the same if using the same bit of kit, but this tape does it in style!

The ultra high-grade steel blade is 19mm long and provides impressive standout. Not happy to settle for a conventional steel end hook, Fisco's development team have provided an aerospace polymer unit that locates, grips and sticks to whatever it measures. In other words... no more slipping! The hook's clear plastic housing allows the user to read the measurements right up to the tip and the advanced braking mechanism means that the blade can be stopped with the minimum of effort.

The blade and mechanism are contained securely within a tough, ergonomic case which features over-engineered protection points and shock absorbers. The case itself is precisely 100mm long making internal measurements straightforward and the conventional belt clip is replaced by a revolutionary quick-release belt holster. The holster remains on your belt whilst the tape measure clips in and out with one simple movement.

Just wish someone would make a tape where the scale doesn't wear off so easily.
All my tapes look like this after about 3 months!
