The blade measures 100 feet long and 0.375 inches wide, constructed from steel with a chrome clad finish that resists corrosion and wear during repeated use. The B7 blade style and SAE measurement format make this tape well suited for professionals who require accurate, readable markings over long distances. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors rely on leader tapes of this type when pulling wire, measuring pipe runs, or laying out ductwork in tight or extended spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis leader tape is built for field use in residential and commercial construction and service environments. Its compact case measures 5.7 inches long, 4.9 inches wide, and 1.1 inches tall, making it easy to carry on a tool belt or store in a service bag. The 100-foot blade length covers long runs without the need for multiple measurements, reducing errors in layout and rough-in work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e100-foot chrome clad steel blade resists corrosion and surface wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.375-inch blade width for compact storage and smooth retraction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eB7 blade style with SAE measurement markings for standard trade use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact case at 5.7 x 4.9 x 1.1 inches fits easily on a tool belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually — one tape per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose leader tape for trade professionals requiring SAE-standard long-blade measurement in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and construction applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeader tapes should be extended and retracted smoothly to avoid kinking the blade, which can affect measurement accuracy.
