Lufkin FE150 Fiberglass Tape Measure 150 Ft Open Reel

Product Description

The LUFKIN FE150 is a 150-foot fiberglass tape measure built for layout and measurement work on job sites where a long, reliable blade is essential. The fiberglass blade measures 1/2 inch wide and carries C1-style graduations in 1/8-inch increments on a yellow background for clear readability in the field. The open four-arm frame design protects the blade from damage while preventing dirt and debris from accumulating inside the case. A dual-material grip is elevated above the reel to keep knuckles clear during rewind. The lightweight case makes it easy to carry between tasks, and the rewind reel tucks away for protection when not in use.

The FE150 is suited for contractors, survey crews, electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and other trades that require extended-range linear measurements on large residential or commercial projects. Typical applications include rough-in layout, site measurement, duct runs, pipe routing, and any task requiring accurate measurements beyond the range of a standard 25-foot or 35-foot steel tape. The open reel format is common on long fiberglass tapes used outdoors and in crawlspaces or attics where frequent full extensions are needed.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this measuring tool. Keep the blade free of kinks and avoid sharp bends that can crack or delaminate fiberglass tape. After use in wet or muddy conditions, wipe the blade clean before retracting to protect the graduations and extend blade life. Store away from extreme heat to prevent blade distortion.
