The blade is 3\/8 inches wide and 0.008 inches thick, with 1\/8-inch graduations in B9 style featuring bold black and red numbers for fast, accurate reading in the field. The yellow blade improves visibility against most work surfaces. The vinyl-covered steel case is black and uses a closed-case design with a large easy-action winding drum and friction washers to control retraction. Nylon rollers guide the blade smoothly in and out without binding or edge damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tape measure is suited for residential and commercial jobsite use where a long-range steel tape is required. It fits standard layout tasks in framing, mechanical rough-in, and site measurement where a 100-foot pull is needed. The 3\/8-inch blade width keeps the unit compact and easy to handle. The rugged steel case with vinyl coating stands up to daily use in demanding field conditions. No belt clip is included, making it a bench or bag tool rather than a belt-worn unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100-foot blade length for long-range site and layout measurements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch wide by 0.008-inch thick steel blade for durability and smooth extension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/8-inch B9-style graduation with bold black and red numbers for fast reading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYellow blade color improves contrast on most work surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge easy-action winding drum with friction washers controls retraction speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNylon rollers protect blade edges and guide tape smoothly in and out of case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVinyl-covered closed steel case resists jobsite impact and wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose 100-foot steel tape measure suitable for construction layout, mechanical trades, and field measurement applications requiring extended reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo power source or mounting is required for this hand tool. When using a long steel tape outdoors or near electrical work, confirm the tape is not in contact with energized conductors, as steel blades conduct electricity. Retract the blade at a controlled pace using the winding drum to prevent kinking or edge damage. Store coiled and dry to maintain blade coating and graduation legibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.008 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yellow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGraduation\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGraduation Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: B9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Closed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLock Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: No Lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Clip\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27111801\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: LUFKIN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: HW226ME\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LUFKIN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51544627413298,"sku":"HW226ME","price":110.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6abbeef464f36e0b4b5632d2727fd51b_f3d94a79-4b5a-4824-9e4a-32479adda8a6.jpg?v=1785931976","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/lufkin-hw226me-tape-measure-100-foot-3-8-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
