Apex PQR1312N Quickread Tape Measure 12 Ft Steel

Product Description

The APEX PQR1312N is a 12-foot SAE tape measure from the Crescent Lufkin Quickread line, designed for fast, accurate linear measurements on the job site. The blade is constructed from steel with a yellow clad finish for high visibility and durability. At 0.75 inches wide, the A3-style blade provides good rigidity during extension. The compact housing measures 6 inches long, 3.75 inches wide, and 1.8 inches tall, making it easy to carry on a tool belt. At 0.6 pounds, it adds minimal weight to a standard loadout. Licensed tradespeople and skilled DIYers alike rely on this tape for layout, rough-in, and finish work.

The PQR1312N is suited for general construction, mechanical layout, plumbing rough-in, and electrical conduit measurement where SAE fractional readings are required. The Quickread blade format is intended to reduce read errors in the field by presenting clear, easy-to-read markings. This tape is sold individually and works in any application calling for a standard 12-foot SAE measuring tool.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand tool. Inspect the blade for kinks or damage before use, as a bent blade can produce inaccurate readings. Keep the blade clean and dry to prevent rust and ensure the retraction mechanism functions reliably. Follow standard job-site tool-handling practices when working near energized panels or open trenches.
