Long tape for engineers
The Keson MC-10-100 is a 100 ft fiberglass tape with a 1/2 in white blade designed for engineering layout and outdoor measurement. It reads in feet with 1/10 and 1/100 ft graduations and includes stud markings for framing reference. The closed ABS plastic case protects the blade during transport and storage. A folding hook anchors the zero point without a belt clip.
Manual rewind and no lock limit speed
The tape relies on a manual rewind mechanism and has no locking button, so the blade must be held or tensioned by hand during every reading. This slows repetitive layout work compared with spring-return models and makes single-person use awkward on long pulls. The clear coating resists abrasion but does not add a positive stop.
100 ft reach with fiberglass stretch
The 100 ft blade covers foundation checks, site grading and large-floor set-outs in a single pull. Fiberglass resists moisture and kinking but stretches under tension, so precision drops on the longest spans. For indoor trim or cabinet work the 1/2 in width and 1/100 ft resolution are finer than needed.

Questions about this item
Which blade length and width combination fits this Keson tape measure?
The blade is 100 ft long and 1/2 in wide, matching the MC-10-100 designation in the model name.
What do the 1/10 and 1/100 ft graduations mean when I measure on site?
Each foot is divided into tenths and hundredths, so you can read directly in decimal feet without converting inches.
How does the manual rewind and closed ABS case affect daily use?
You pull the blade out by hand and crank it back in; the closed case keeps dirt off the fiberglass blade while you work.
