This blade measures 100 feet in length and 0.5 inches in width, following the D3 blade style specification. It is a direct-replacement component used when the original blade is worn, kinked, or broken, allowing technicians and tradespeople to restore a quality housing to full function without replacing the entire tool. The blade fits within a compact housing envelope measuring 9 inches in overall length, 6.1 inches in width, and 1.8 inches in height.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis replacement blade is suited for general trade and construction applications where a 100-foot measuring range is required. It is commonly installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general contractors who rely on Atlas-family tape measures for layout and rough-in work. Blade replacement extends the service life of an existing housing rather than requiring a full tool replacement, making it a cost-effective maintenance option for professionals who carry these tools daily.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100-foot blade length for long-range layout and measurement tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD3 blade style matching Atlas Chrome Clad and Nubian Double Duty housings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.5-inch blade width for standard tape measure compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect OEM-style replacement restores existing housing to working condition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact housing footprint: 9 inches long, 6.1 inches wide, 1.8 inches tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a replacement blade for Atlas Chrome Clad and Nubian Double Duty tape measure housings using the D3 blade style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlade replacement on tape measure housings is performed by hand tool technicians or skilled tradespeople familiar with the specific Atlas housing mechanism. Follow the manufacturer disassembly procedure for the housing before removing the old blade. Avoid forcing the blade during installation as this can damage the retraction spring or housing guides. Ensure the blade seats fully and retracts smoothly before returning the tool to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 ft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: D3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.1 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.65 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: APEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: OCN1296SMEF5N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"APEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51343070200114,"sku":"OCN1296SMEF5N","price":350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310504267.jpg?v=1782015600","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/apex-ocn1296smef5n-replacement-blade-100-ft-d3","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
