Perfect Tape Measure - Pocket Precision Circumference and Diameter Tape Measure and Layout Pocket Tool in Metric and Imperial - 1/4" Width x 6.6ft / 2m Length Blade

I was looking for a small tape measure for everyday carry. This is it. Small enough you don’t notice it’s in your pocket until you need it. Both inches & centimeters. Compact and well made, extends and snaps back easily.

CArry it every day in my pocket.

Basic measuring tape. I like the graduations in linear increments on one side and diametric measurement on the other side.

Absolutely love this little tape measure and always have it on me, but the printing has worn off to the point that the first few inches are unreadable. This seems to be from friction as it is rolled and unrolled so it is a bit of a defect. Regardless, it is useful enough that I bought a backup.

The measure is well constructed and accurate and very reasonably priced. I was surprised and glad to find a tape with diameter capabilities well below industrial grade costs. The only improvement I would suggest concerns the hook end which is installed for conventional linear measurements. On the diameter side the "0" starts well after the hook so one needs to line up at the "0" , see photo. If possible a clip should be modified so it could be used for both sides of the tape and then of course the diameter measurements would start at the clip. After good communications with the manufacturer I realize it would not be best to change the clip and "0" start for most users.

This is a fabulous little tape measure that has keychain and is very thin so fits nicely in your pocket and has 6+ ft tape! I’ve had 3’ tapes before, but often that’s not long enough. Glad I found this. Metal case might last a little longer in the pocket, but would likely be heavier, and this is quite light.

As the state association for the arboriculture industry (ASM), we are going to order these to help recognize our 10th anniversary and give these to all registrants to ArborCon 2016. I discussed a possible improvement to the product with the distributor and he was very open-minded and interested in how this tape is used for tree measurements and how a small modification to the clasp at the end of the tape could greatly improve the ease of use on trees. Its not an industrial-strenght tape, but useful and should last if handled with care.

These are a perfect low-cost solution to carrying a Lufkin pocket tape measure.
