Milwaukee Tool 48-22-1226 Tape Measure 26 Ft

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE TOOL 48-22-1226 is a 26-foot wide-blade tape measure designed for layout, measurement, and framing work across construction, mechanical, and trade applications. The steel blade measures 1.38 inches wide and delivers 15 feet of standout, allowing single-person measurements over long spans without a second hand holding the far end. Graduated in 1/16-inch increments, the yellow blade reads clearly in low-light conditions. Automatic rewind and a slide lock keep the blade controlled and ready for repeated use on busy job sites.

This tape measure suits residential and commercial construction, rough and finish carpentry, HVAC equipment layout, plumbing rough-in, and electrical conduit measurement. The closed ABS case in black and red houses the blade and provides impact resistance during daily use. A belt clip keeps the tool accessible while working at height or in tight mechanical spaces. The hook tip style seats firmly on material edges for accurate single-point pulls.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand tool. Inspect the blade and hook for damage before use, as a bent or loose hook will introduce measurement error. Keep the blade clean and dry to prevent rust and ensure smooth rewind. Replace the tape if the blade develops kinks, cracks, or illegible graduations.
