New tapes more than measure up
The tape measure is undergoing an
overhaul thanks to Olympia Tools.
Known as Roughneck Tough
Tapes, the new products benefi t
from a number of external and
internal features.
Externally, this includes a durable,
heavy-duty, chrome-plated case as
well as a strong belt clip.
Internally, they are said to employ
a shock absorbing recoil mechanism,
as well as blade brake. Based on
Auto Brake technology, this securely
locks the extended blade in place
with no slippage, facilitating more
accurate measuring.
The blade includes a large and
magnetic double-ended hook
which enables one person to use it
easily. The blades are also painted
with lead-free paint, as well as
nylon coated for greater durability
and complete rust protection.
In addition, to make the tape
measures simpler to read, they
are wider than normal at 27mm
in width, and feature Roughneck’s
patented E-Z Read graduation on
the upper side of the blade.
This graduation o ers both
metric and imperial measurements
and has every 1/8” marked with a
number. This saves users the time
and e ort of counting notches,
whilst simultaneously helping to
reduce the margin for incorrect
measuring.
