Stanley Powerlock Tape Measure ( Select Size )

One of the few modern Stanley tools that is worthy of the name. The 5m Powerlock tape is extremely well built with a rugged metal case that has withstood many accidental drops and bumps on a concrete floor. No visible damage. The blade itself is wide and can sustain its own weight at reasonable extensions to perform measurements without the help of a second person. The markings are also clear and very accurate - checked with a Starrett rule. The retraction mechanism works perfectly - even after 8 years of use. A bit more expensive than alternatives, but well worth it in my opinion.
