TAHOE Tape Measure – 16 ft., Silver, Thin Blade, Waterproof
TAHOE Tape Measure – 16 ft., Silver, Thin Blade, Waterproof
The TAHOE Tape Measure is a 16 ft. waterproof tape measure with a thin silver blade, for measuring in wet fabrication shops.
Waterproof is the point of it: a tape used around saws, water tables and slurry gets wet every day, and a tape that is not built for it seizes or rusts at the spring. There are two 16 ft. house-brand tapes in this catalogue and the blade separates them – this is the thin silver blade, and the BRUIN Tape Measure – 16 ft. is the thick black blade. Blade width, standout and blade material are not published for this tape.

16 ft.
Which waterproof tapes in this catalogue publish a blade width?
