Apex FM030DM Fiberglass Tape Measure 100 Ft

Product Description

The APEX FM030DM is a 100-foot fiberglass tape measure designed for layout, measurement, and marking tasks across construction, trades, and field applications. The blade is constructed from fiberglass using a C7 blade style, measuring 0.5 inches wide, and supports both SAE and metric readings on a single tape. The case measures 8.9 inches long, 15 inches wide, and 2.1 inches tall, with a total unit weight of 1.58 pounds. The four-arm design provides stable, balanced handling during extended use. This tape is suited for licensed trades professionals and field crews who need a durable, readable long-tape solution without the limitations of a steel blade in wet or corrosive environments.

The FM030DM is well suited for site layout, plumbing rough-in measurements, electrical conduit runs, and HVAC duct layout where long, straight pulls are common. Fiberglass construction resists moisture and corrosion, making it a practical choice for outdoor jobsites or areas exposed to water. The dual SAE and metric graduation eliminates the need to carry a second tape when working with plans that mix measurement systems. Typical users include general contractors, plumbers, electricians, and HVAC installers who require accurate long-distance measurements on active job sites.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this measuring tool. Before use, inspect the blade for kinks, fraying, or damage that could affect measurement accuracy. Avoid pulling the blade at sharp angles against hard edges, which can cause premature wear to the fiberglass construction. Store the tape in a dry location and wind the blade fully after each use to maintain blade condition.
