    This is one of the last tapes made in USA (even Stanley is outsourcing their FatMax brand). It is rugged and serves all of my needs. As long as Stanley makes this in America, I will buy it exclusively.

    Good measuring tape. A little heavy, but the stop has yet to wear out after a year and a half of use. Still working great.

    I have been using this tape measure for our construction business for the last three years. After dropping it multiple times, getting the tongue caught in tight spots, and twisting the blade accidentally multiple times, this thing is still going strong! The blade is starting to develop a small break (my fault) so I’m sure I will be replacing it soon. Plus, I love the fact that the case is exactly 3” long, making it an easy math problem to do wall to wall measurements by just adding 3” to the length. Other tape measures have goofy case lengths (2.75”, etc) making it difficult to add the displayed length and the case length. Try adding 10’-4 5/8” + 2 3/4” in your head quickly and accurately. Or try adding 10’-4 5/8” + 3” in your head. Which one would you prefer?

    It is a good serviceable tape measure. It feels a bit fragile though I am not sure how this will stack up to more expensive models over time.

    This is hands down the best tape measure Ive ever owned or used. Not that it takes much to be a great tape measure, but the quality of its construction leaves me confident I bought the right product.

    I keep one in my truck and one in my shop. My current ones are over 10 years old. Very dependable, long lasting and very useful around the house. I would never use anything but Stanley! This is the best.

With a Tru-Zero end hook, a Mylar-coated blade, and a secure blade lock, the STANLEY 25 ft. PowerLock Tape Measure ensures precise measurements and long-lasting durability.

The Stanley Powerlock 25-Foot by 1-Inch Measuring Tape is a classic, and for good reason. Designed for professionals and weekend warriors alike, this top-notch product offers maximum usability in all types of measuring situations. Equipped with a range of useful goodies, the highly-portable tape will meet just about anyone’s needs. Standard features include a lockable blade for precise measurements and minimal slippage, a belt hook for easy access, a 1-inch wide blade for easy reading, and 16-inch and 19.2-inch stud center markings. Plus, Stanley has added a heat-treated spring to increase the tape’s lifespan.

Two unique features make this tape a standout. First, the blade is coated with mylar to help it stand up to abrasion associated with repeated use. Second, the patented Tru-Zero hook doubles as a pivot for drawing circles and arcs, and it automatically adjusts to handle inside or outside measurements. What this means is that the hook on the end has a small amount of play that is equivalent to the thickness of the hook blade. This is so that when you measure with the hook inside a stop (like a window jam), the front end of the hook is the zero point. When you hook it over the edge of a board, the zero point becomes the back of the hook.

Stanley does make a host of other measuring tools that may be worth checking out. At such a great price, most users can’t go wrong with this one.

The Stanley Story
The Stanley Works, originally a bolt and door hardware manufacturing company located in New Britain, Connecticut; was founded in 1843 by Frederick T. Stanley. A few years later, in 1857, Frederick’s cousin, Henry Stanley, founded The Stanley Rule and Level Company. In 1920, The Rule and Level Company merged with The Stanley Works and would go on to become it’s famous Hand Tools Division. Over the years, The Stanley Works has produced some of the most innovative and useful tools ever made. Among these tools are the Bailey Plane, the Surform shaper, the PowerLock tape rule and most recently the FatMax line of products. Today, more than ever, Stanley continues to be an industry leader in tool innovation. In 2001, Stanley introduced more than 100 new products, bringing to 400 the number of new products introduced in the past four years. As a direct result of Stanley’s commitment to excellence, Stanley was awarded the Prestigious Golden Hammer Award, presented for New Product Innovation in both 2000 and 2001.
