Keson Pumpkin 50 ft Engineers Tape
This Keson Industries tape measure delivers 50 feet or 15 metres of fiberglass blade in a bright orange ABS open case. The half-inch yellow and white blade carries engineer and metric graduations including tenths and hundredths of a foot plus millimetres centimetres and metres. A folding hook marks the zero point for accurate inside and outside readings. The manual rewind has no lock so the blade runs freely.
Graduations and Hook Change Daily Use
The engineer scale in tenths and hundredths of a foot lets surveyors and civil crews record decimal feet directly without conversion. Metric marks in millimetres centimetres and metres serve international specs on the same blade. The folding hook seats on corners and edges so the zero point stays true whether you pull or push. Stud markings appear along the blade for quick framing reference.
Open Case Requires Manual Care
The open reel design means no spring to jam but you must crank the handle to retract the blade after each pull. No belt clip is fitted so plan a pouch or pocket for carrying. Fiberglass resists stretch and moisture yet can kink if jerked hard so pull smoothly. Check that your workflow tolerates a manual rewind and an unclipped case before ordering.

Questions about this item
Will the fiberglass blade or the ABS case need replacing first?
The fiberglass blade can stretch or fray over time, while the orange ABS case is impact-resistant; either part can be swapped separately if damaged.
What stops the 15 m blade from extending further during a long layout?
The blade ends at 15 m or 50 ft with no lock mechanism, so the physical end of the tape is the hard stop.
Does the open case get hot or noisy when I rewind the tape all day?
Manual rewind is silent and produces no heat; the open ABS case simply lets the fiberglass blade air-dry between uses.
