Apex CN1295SF590N Oil Gauging Tape 75 Ft Steel

Product Description

The APEX CN1295SF590N is an Atlas Double Duty oil gauging tape designed for accurate liquid-level measurement in fuel storage tanks and similar industrial applications. The blade is constructed from steel with a Chrome Clad/Nubian finish, combining corrosion resistance on the upper side with a dark Nubian coating on the lower side for clear product-level reading. The blade measures 0.5 inches wide and extends 75 feet, making it suitable for gauging medium to large above-ground storage tanks. This tool is used by fuel storage operators, tank service technicians, and petroleum industry professionals who require reliable manual tank gauging.

The CN1295SF590N is built around the Atlas D1 blade style with a 590 bob cut, which defines the plumb-bob fitting at the tape end for consistent, repeatable dip measurements. It suits field use in petroleum distribution terminals, farm fuel storage, fleet fueling facilities, and industrial tank farms where manual gauging is part of routine inventory and compliance workflows. The compact case profile makes it easy to transport between gauging points.

Key Features

• 75-foot steel blade provides reach for medium and large storage tank depths
• Chrome Clad/Nubian dual-finish blade delivers contrast for accurate product-level reading
• D1 blade style with 590 bob cut for standardized plumb-bob gauging compatibility
• 0.5-inch blade width supports smooth reeling and consistent lay in the tank
• Steel blade construction resists deformation under repeated use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use gauging tape for manual tank gauging applications requiring a 75-foot steel double-duty tape with a 590 bob cut configuration.

Installation Notes

Oil gauging tapes are used by petroleum and tank service technicians following applicable API manual gauging procedures. Before gauging, ensure the tank vent is open and all ignition sources are clear of the gauging point. Lower the tape slowly to avoid splashing and allow the bob to reach the tank bottom before reading the product level at the cut point on the blade. Inspect the blade and bob regularly for nicks, kinks, or corrosion that could affect measurement accuracy.
