Lufkin L916-02 Tape Measure 16 Ft Steel Blade Sae

Product Description

The LUFKIN L916-02 is a 16-foot steel-blade tape measure built for trade and job-site use. The blade carries a matte nylon coating that reduces glare and extends wear life on a working tape. The chrome case measures 5.8 inches long, 4 inches wide, and 2.15 inches tall, keeping the unit compact enough for a tool belt or apron pocket. Blade width is 1 inch, providing enough rigidity for unsupported reaches common in rough-in and layout work. Measurement markings are SAE standard. The A29 blade style follows a widely recognized graduation format familiar to HVAC, plumbing, and electrical installers.

The L916-02 is suited for residential and light commercial trade applications where fast, accurate linear measurement is needed. HVAC technicians use tape measures during equipment placement, duct layout, and clearance verification. Plumbers and electricians rely on them for pipe runs, conduit bends, and panel rough-in. The compact chrome case and nylon-coated blade make this a practical everyday carry for field technicians across trades.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand tool. Inspect the blade for kinks or cracks before use, as a damaged blade can produce inaccurate readings. Hook the end tang on a reference point before extending the blade to ensure accurate zero measurement. Store the tape retracted and away from moisture to preserve the nylon blade coating.
