Apex CD2730DMMN Derrick Tape Chrome Clad 100 Ft Steel

Product Description

The APEX CD2730DMMN is a Crescent Lufkin Derrick Tape designed for high-elevation and rigging measurement applications where standard tapes are impractical. The blade is 100 feet long, 0.25 inches wide, and finished in Chrome Clad steel for corrosion resistance and durability in demanding field environments. The E12 blade style provides a rigid, reliable read under tension. This tape is calibrated for both SAE and metric measurements, making it a versatile tool for crews working across mixed-unit specifications. It is used primarily by structural ironworkers, tower hands, and derrick crews who require accurate vertical or extended-reach measurements on job sites.

The CD2730DMMN is suited for derrick and rigging operations in both commercial and industrial settings. The four-arm configuration and compact housing measuring 8.8 inches in length and 1.5 inches in height make it manageable in confined or elevated work conditions. The SAE and metric dual-graduation system supports use on projects with mixed measurement standards, common in energy, telecommunications tower, and heavy construction applications.

Installation Notes

Deployment and retrieval of derrick tapes should be performed by qualified ironworkers or rigging professionals familiar with elevated and load-bearing work environments. Ensure the tape is fully retracted and locked before transporting or storing the unit. Inspect the blade for kinks, corrosion, or graduation wear prior to each use, as damaged blades can produce inaccurate readings. Follow applicable OSHA and site safety protocols when working at elevation.
