Klein Tools 86225-VAC 25 Ft Magnetic Tape Measure

Product Description

The KLEIN TOOLS 86225-VAC is a 25-foot double-hook magnetic tape measure built for electricians and other trade professionals who need fast, accurate measurements on job sites with conduit, steel studs, and wide belt rigs. The blade features bold, easy-to-read markings at every 1/8 inch, a heavy-duty nylon coating that protects the printed graduations from wear, and a standout of up to 9.5 feet for unsupported horizontal reach. A retraction speed brake controls how fast the blade retracts, reducing the risk of finger contact with the returning edge.

The 86225-VAC is designed for electrical and general construction trade use. Dual-angle magnetic hooks attach directly to conduit and steel studs, freeing both hands during layout and rough-in work. The blade is printed with a Conduit Bending Table to help technicians calculate offsets and saddles in the field without referencing a separate chart. A super-sized back clip secures the measure to wide tool belts and sits deep enough in a pocket to stay put during overhead or ladder work.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand tool. Electricians and construction tradespeople should inspect the blade coating and hook magnets before each use for signs of wear or damage. Store the measure away from extreme heat or moisture to preserve blade printing and nylon coating longevity. The magnetic hooks should be kept clear of debris that could reduce holding strength on conduit or steel studs.
