Lufkin PQR1312N Tape Measure 12 Foot 3/4 Inch Blade

Product Description

The LUFKIN PQR1312N is a 12-foot steel-blade tape measure built for trade professionals who need fast, accurate linear measurements on the job. The blade is 3/4 inch wide and finished in high-visibility yellow, with graduations marked in both fractions and decimal equivalents at 1/16-inch intervals using the A3 graduation style. Markings are vertically oriented so readings are taken quickly without repositioning the tape. The case is molded in high-visibility orange ABS with an overmold grip surface that absorbs impact and stays secure in the hand. A toggle-style blade lock holds measurements while both hands are free.

This tape measure suits general construction, rough and finish carpentry, plumbing rough-in layout, HVAC duct and equipment placement, and electrical conduit layout work. The compact 12-foot length and ergonomic case make it a reliable secondary measure on any tool belt, as well as the primary tool for interior trim, cabinet, and equipment clearance work where a longer tape would be unwieldy. The decimal-equivalent markings are particularly useful when working from engineering drawings or cut sheets that mix fractional and decimal dimensions.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand tool. Inspect the blade for kinks or damaged graduations before use, as a kinked blade will produce inaccurate measurements. Replace the tape measure if the blade lock no longer holds position under normal use. Store with the blade retracted to prevent case stress and blade edge damage.
