Apex C106TPMN Artisan Diameter Tape 6.5M 21 Ft Steel

Product Description

The APEX C106TPMN is a professional-grade diameter tape designed for direct outside-diameter measurements on cylindrical objects such as pipe, conduit, and round stock. The tape features a chrome clad steel blade in Blade Style B15, measuring 6.5 meters (21 feet) in length and 0.375 inches wide. The compact housing measures 3.5 inches long and 1 inch tall, making it easy to carry on a job site. This tool is built for tradespeople who need fast, accurate diameter readings without the need for separate calculations from a circumference tape.

The C106TPMN is suited for plumbing, pipefitting, HVAC, and general mechanical trades where pipe sizing and round-stock identification are routine tasks. Its metric measurement type supports applications requiring SI unit readouts, and the durable chrome clad blade resists wear in field conditions. The Artisan family line is designed for working professionals who rely on consistent, repeatable results across multiple job sites and installations.

Key Features

• Chrome clad steel blade resists corrosion and wear during field use
• 6.5-meter (21-foot) blade length handles a wide range of pipe and round-stock diameters
• Blade Style B15 provides direct diameter readout, eliminating manual conversion from circumference
• Compact 3.5 x 3.5 x 1 inch housing fits easily in a tool pouch or apron pocket
• Metric measurement type supports SI-based specifications and drawings
• Blade width of 0.375 inches maintains flexibility for wrapping around curved surfaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use diameter tape suitable for pipe measurement tasks across plumbing, HVAC, and pipefitting applications.

Installation Notes

A diameter tape is a measurement tool, not an installed component. No power-down or system shutoff is required for use. Wrap the blade smoothly around the outside circumference of the pipe or round stock, keeping the tape flat and perpendicular to the pipe axis for an accurate diameter reading. Follow applicable trade measurement standards when recording dimensions for code compliance or material ordering.
