Lufkin L1316B-02 Power Tape Measure 16 Ft Nite Eye

Product Description

The LUFKIN L1316B-02 is a 16-foot power tape measure featuring a Nite Eye blade and an abrasion-resistant coating designed to hold up in demanding job-site conditions. The steel blade measures 1-1/4 inches wide and is graduated to 1/16th of an inch, providing precise readings for layout, rough-in, and finishing work across trades. Markings are applied as decals, keeping graduations legible through repeated use. The housing is constructed from ABS lightweight high-impact material, reducing hand fatigue during extended use without sacrificing durability. This tape is well-suited for HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general contractors who need a reliable measuring tool on every call.

The L1316B-02 is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications wherever accurate linear measurement is required. Its 16-foot reach covers common tasks such as measuring duct runs, pipe offsets, conduit layouts, and structural rough-ins. The Nite Eye blade feature improves readability in low-light conditions common in attics, crawlspaces, mechanical rooms, and unfinished construction areas. The compact, impact-resistant ABS case makes it practical for tool belts and service bags.

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. Hook the end tab on a fixed point before extending the blade to ensure the zero reference is seated correctly. Store the tape retracted and away from moisture to preserve blade coating and decal markings.
