Lufkin 703D Fiberglass Tape Measure 50 Ft Yellow Blade

Product Description

The LUFKIN 703D is a 50-foot fiberglass tape measure designed for layout, surveying, and general measurement work in the field or on the job site. The 1/2-inch-wide yellow blade is coated for durability and carries C2 graduation markings at 1/10-foot increments, with black and red print on a yellow background for high contrast readability. The non-conductive fiberglass construction makes it suitable for use near electrical hazards. The lightweight ABS winding drum supports smooth, consistent tape recovery. This tool is commonly used by contractors, electricians, plumbers, and surveyors who require accurate linear measurement in a portable format.

The 703D is suited for residential and commercial job sites where long-range measurements are required. The 50-foot length handles room layout, pipe runs, conduit routing, and site measurements that exceed the range of a standard short-form tape. The C2 graduation style provides decimal-foot markings, which are standard in engineering and surveying applications. The orange ABS case is lightweight and easy to locate on a crowded work surface or tool belt.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand tool. Inspect the blade for kinks or coating wear before each use, as damage to the fiberglass can affect measurement accuracy. Avoid dragging the blade across abrasive surfaces or bending it at sharp angles. Retract the tape slowly to prevent snap-back wear on the blade tip.
