Apex HW226D Banner Tape Yellow Clad Steel 100 Ft

Product Description

The APEX HW226D is a 100-foot steel blade tape measure in the Banner series, finished in a yellow clad coating for durability and high visibility in the field. The blade measures 0.375 inches wide and is built to SAE measurement standards, making it a practical layout and measurement tool for trade professionals in construction, plumbing, HVAC, and electrical work. The B5 blade style provides the stiffness needed for extended reach without excessive droop. The compact case measures 5.3 inches long, 5.1 inches wide, and 1.2 inches tall, keeping the tool manageable on a belt or in a tool bag.

The HW226D suits residential and commercial job sites where accurate SAE measurements are required over longer runs. It is well suited for layout work on framing, ductwork runs, pipe routing, and conduit planning. The 100-foot blade length makes it appropriate for room measurements, site layout, and any task where a short tape falls short. At 1.6 pounds, it is light enough for all-day carry without adding significant load to a tool belt.
