ROLL-UP MEASURES – EVERYTHING STARTS WITH MEASUREMENT

Accurate measurement is absolutely essential for proper installation. Any mistake at this stage will definitely have negative consequences. In extreme cases, it may even require redoing the work, which results in additional costs and time loss.

These measures come in various lengths, though most commonly you’ll find ones ranging between 2 and 8 meters on store shelves. Before buying, it’s worth considering what you need it for and choosing the right length. A useful feature in this type of tape measure is the automatic lock, which prevents it from retracting on its own once extended—it stays out until you press the appropriate button.

To improve resistance to mechanical damage, many manufacturers coat the surface of the tape with nylon. A clever solution offered by some brands is a hook with a magnetic tip, which proves extremely useful when measuring alone. It’s also worth paying attention to how the tape is connected to the tip—double rivets ensure the tool’s durability.

Today’s tape measures are made of highly durable materials, resistant to shocks and impacts, allowing them to perform well in tough construction environments. The tape, usually made of steel, is coated with a special layer that protects against moisture, external factors, and frequent retraction.

Manufacturers of roll-up tape measures are increasingly focusing on ergonomic tool design. They use features like rubberized casings, hand-friendly shapes, and wide tapes to significantly improve working comfort.
