Starrett 30639 Tape Measure 26 Ft 1-1/16 in Yellow Blade

Product Description

The STARRETT 30639 is a 26-foot tape measure built for trade professionals who need a reliable, durable layout tool on the job. The blade is 1-1/16 inches wide with a nylon coating that provides six times the abrasion resistance of uncoated steel, extending blade life in rough site conditions. Graduation is marked in 1/16-inch increments using the S9 graduation style. The wider blade delivers a 10-foot standout, allowing single-handed measurement across long spans without blade collapse. The case is molded from PC-ABS plastic with heavy overmolding for impact resistance. A positive slide lock holds the blade firmly at any extension.

This tape measure is suited for residential and commercial construction, mechanical layout, plumbing rough-in, HVAC duct and equipment placement, and electrical conduit runs. The 26-foot length covers standard room spans, stud-to-stud layouts, and equipment clearance checks in tight mechanical rooms. The belt clip keeps the tool accessible during active installs. At 1.1 pounds, it balances well in hand for extended use on the job site.

Installation Notes

This tool requires no installation. Inspect the blade for kinks or nicks before use, as damage to the nylon coating can cause inaccurate reads or blade failure at standout. Return the blade slowly to avoid edge wear on the case opening. Store away from solvents that may degrade the ABS case material.
