Keson 100 ft Engineer's Tape Measure
The Keson 100 ft Engineer's Tape Measure provides a steel blade graduated in tenths and hundredths of a foot for precise site layout. A folding hook tip secures the starting point on edges or corners during solo work. The closed ABS case protects the blade from debris and impact. It is built for engineers and surveyors who need decimal-foot readings over long distances.
100 ft blade with 16 in stud markings
The 3/8 in wide steel blade extends 100 ft and carries lacquer coating for abrasion resistance. Stud markings appear every 16 in along the blade for framing reference. Manual rewind returns the tape without a spring mechanism. The blade has no standout rating so it will sag when extended horizontally without support. Graduations stop at 1/100 ft resolution.
Rubber grip and orange ABS case
A rubber grip on the case improves hold during wet or cold conditions. The bright orange case colour makes the tool easy to spot on a busy jobsite. No belt clip is fitted so the measure must be carried by hand or stored in a pouch. There is no locking mechanism to hold the blade at a set length.

Questions about this item
Will the 100 ft steel blade with 1/10 and 1/100 ft graduations read clearly next to my older fractional tapes?
The blade uses decimal-foot markings at 1/10 and 1/100 intervals, so you read tenths and hundredths directly without converting fractions.
How can I verify the 16 in stud markings and folding hook are accurate after I start using the tape?
Measure a known 16 in on-centre layout; the red stud diamonds should align exactly, and the folding hook should seat flush on the edge for both inside and outside readings.
Does the orange ABS case include a belt clip or must I buy one separately?
The case has no belt clip; a clip or pouch is a separate purchase.
