12 ft Tape Measure with 5/8 in Blade
The Keson PGTFD12V is a 12-foot tape measure built for general measuring tasks at home or on a job site. Its yellow blade features SAE and engineers graduations with fractional markings in 1/16 inch on one edge and decimal markings in 0.125 inch on the other. A lock mechanism holds the blade in place while you work.
Graduation limits and blade constraints
The blade width is 5/8 inch and the tape extends to 12 feet, so measurements beyond that length require a longer tool. Fractional graduations stop at 1/16 inch and decimal graduations stop at 0.125 inch, limiting resolution for finer layout work. The automatic rewind pulls the blade back quickly, so keep fingers clear of the case opening.
Simple one-hand operation
Press the lock button to hold the blade at any point and release it to engage the automatic rewind. The case and internal components are designed to keep everything aligned during extension and retraction. Dirt or debris in the case can slow the rewind, so wipe the blade clean before letting it retract.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 12 ft model or a different length for general use?
The 12 ft blade covers most household and light trade tasks without the bulk of longer tapes.
What does the 5/8 in blade width mean when I am measuring?
The narrower 5/8 in blade fits into tight openings and curves around pipework more easily than a 1 in blade.
How does the automatic rewind work with the lock on this tape?
Press the lock to hold the blade at any point; release it and the spring retracts the tape fully into the case.
