This tape measure catches your eye right away with its cheerful color blocks in yellow, red, green and white, so you can see at a glance which section of the tape you're reading. The numbers are printed large and sharp in both centimeters and inches, and the metal button at the end gives you a fixed starting point for measuring. When rolled up it takes up minimal space, but when extended the tape stays rigid enough to lie flat along your body or fabric edge without sagging.

What is this material

Stock: In Stock
Model: MEASURE

The tape measure is made from a flexible plastic band that doesn't stretch, even after years of use. This means your measurements stay reliable, whether you're laying out a pattern or adjusting a garment to fit. The band is thin enough to follow curves and contours smoothly, but sturdy enough not to kink or tear with normal handling. The metal eyelet at the head prevents the end from fraying and makes it easy to hook the tape somewhere while you're measuring.
