Milwaukee 48-22-9717 Studa Tape Measure 16 Ft Steel

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 48-22-9717 is a 16-foot retractable tape measure built for demanding jobsite use. The blade is protected by EXO360 rip-and-wear-resistant blade technology, which reinforces the full 360 degrees of the blade surface to extend service life. An anti-tear coating adds extra protection to the first 6 inches of the blade, the zone most prone to damage during daily use. The fully reinforced, impact-resistant frame is rated to survive an 80-foot drop. Double-sided blade printing and a standout reach of up to 17 feet make solo measurements faster and more accurate on the job.

The 48-22-9717 is suited for residential and commercial construction, remodeling, rough framing, and finish work. The tape includes an architectural scale for layout tasks. A wire-form belt clip reduces pocket wear during carry, and a lanyard attachment point allows the measure to be tethered for work at height. The finger stop gives the user direct control over blade retraction speed, reducing snap-back and blade damage. The geared internal design keeps the overall profile compact despite the 16-foot capacity.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand tool. Inspect the blade for kinks or cracks before use, as a damaged blade can snap back unexpectedly. When working at height, use the lanyard attachment point to tether the measure to a tool belt or wrist strap per site fall-protection and dropped-tool policies.
