Lufkin PHV1048CMN Tape Measure 26 Foot 25 Mm

Product Description

The LUFKIN PHV1048CMN is a 26-foot steel blade tape measure built for trade use on job sites where accuracy and durability matter. The yellow blade features A9 graduation markings with 1 cm increments, giving users clear, fast readings in field conditions. The high-visibility orange overmold case is designed for impact resistance and a secure grip during single-hand measuring tasks. An 8-foot standout length keeps the blade rigid without support across most standard measurements. The reinforced quad-rivet end hook is engineered to resist ripping away from the blade under repeated use. A top-mounted toggle lock holds the blade position hands-free during layout work.

This tape measure is suited for residential and commercial construction, HVAC rough-in layout, plumbing rough-in, electrical conduit runs, and general trade measurement tasks. The ergonomic case design reduces hand fatigue during extended use. The integrated belt clip allows hands-free carry between measurements. At 1.07 pounds, it is light enough for all-day tool belt use without adding unnecessary load. Tradespeople across mechanical, electrical, and structural disciplines will find the A9 graduation style readable under varied lighting conditions.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand tool. Inspect the end hook for play before use, as a small amount of end hook movement is intentional and accounts for the hook thickness when taking inside versus outside measurements. Keep the blade clean and dry to prevent corrosion and ensure smooth retraction. Avoid forcing a kinked blade back into the case, as this can damage the recoil spring.
