Apex PHV1312N Power Tape Measure 12 Ft Steel Sae

Product Description

The APEX PHV1312N is a 12-foot SAE power tape measure featuring an A2-style steel blade with a clearcoat finish. Designed for precision layout and measurement tasks, it delivers reliable linear measurements in standard inch increments. The steel blade resists flex and holds its shape during extended reach, making it a dependable tool for HVAC rough-in, plumbing layout, electrical conduit runs, and general trade work. The rawhide-colored case houses the blade mechanism and measures 5.85 inches long, 3.75 inches wide, and 1.85 inches tall, keeping the unit compact enough for a tool belt or pouch.

This tape measure is suited for residential and light commercial trade applications where SAE measurements are required. HVAC technicians use it for equipment clearance checks, duct layout, and service access verification. Plumbers and electricians rely on it for pipe runs, conduit spacing, and rough-in dimensions. The 0.75-inch blade width provides enough rigidity for hands-free extension over typical trade measurement distances.
