Apex 706D Hi-viz Fiberglass Tape Measure 100 Ft Sae

Product Description

The APEX 706D is a 100-foot fiberglass linear tape measure designed for layout and measurement work in construction, electrical, plumbing, and general trade applications. The fiberglass blade resists stretching and moisture, making it a reliable choice in demanding job-site conditions. The high-visibility (Hi-Viz) blade improves readability in low-light or cluttered work environments. The C2 blade style provides a flat profile suited to long linear pulls. At 0.5 inches wide, the blade tracks consistently along surfaces without excessive sag. Measurements are in SAE units. This is a single-unit tool intended for professional tradespeople who need accurate long-distance measurements on the job.

The 706D suits residential and commercial job sites where long tape pulls are common, including rough framing, conduit layout, pipe runs, and site surveying. The fiberglass construction makes it appropriate for use around electrical hazards where a metal blade would be a concern. The compact case, measuring 9.05 inches long, 6.9 inches wide, and 1.55 inches tall, fits comfortably in a tool bag. Replacement blade model O706D is available separately for extending the service life of the case and reel assembly.
