165 ft Fiberglass Engineers Tape
The Keson Industries long tape measure provides a 165 ft blade for site layout, civil works and survey tasks. Its fiberglass blade resists stretch and moisture, while the white surface carries clear 1/10 and 1/100 ft graduations. An open ABS case in black and orange houses a manual rewind with a freewheeling hub and pawl lock. A folding hook tip anchors on edges or stakes for single-person measurement.
Suited for outdoor distance work.
Surveyors, landscapers and contractors who need to span long intervals will appreciate the 165 ft reach and durable fiberglass construction. The open case sheds debris quickly in muddy or dusty conditions. Workers who require metric markings, a compact pocket tape or a spring-return mechanism should consider a different tool, as this model uses only SAE graduations and manual rewind.
Folding hook and freewheeling hub improve solo
The folding hook tip rotates to catch corners, stakes or nail heads, letting one person hold the zero point without assistance. A freewheeling hub with lock lets the blade pay out freely during long pulls, then locks instantly for reading or rewinding. The clear coating protects the white blade markings from abrasion, keeping graduations legible across repeated field use.

Questions about this item
What mounting hardware is needed to secure the open ABS case during use?
The open ABS case has no belt clip and no mounting holes listed; it is designed to rest on a flat surface or be held by hand while the 165 ft fiberglass blade is extended.
Can the 1/10 and 1/100 ft graduations be read accurately when the tape is used beside a traditional 1/16 in steel rule?
Yes, the white fiberglass blade carries decimal-foot graduations in tenths and hundredths, so readings can be compared directly with a fractional-inch rule by converting the decimal values.
How do I verify the zero point is accurate after the folding hook has taken a knock?
Close the folding hook against the tape’s zero mark, then measure a known 10 ft or 100 ft baseline; if the reading matches the baseline, the zero point and graduations are still true.
