Stabila LBM 1000 Open Steel Tape Measure Shatterproof Reel
The Stabila LBM 1000 Open Steel is a rugged open-reel tape measure designed for tradespeople who measure long distances and demand reliable accuracy on site.
- Shatter-proof Y-frame reel for durability when reels are dropped or knocked on site.
- Sturdy steel blade protects the scale and resists wear in daily use.
- Universal SPIKES hook with fold-out SPIKES coating, integrated eyelet and a large, shatter-proof plastic ring with a nail notch.
- Switchable crank for left- or right-handed use, ensuring comfortable operation for any tradesperson.
- Y-open reel with a metric scale housed in PC/ABS plastic to withstand impacts and rough handling.
- STABILA NYLON-WRAP coating provides corrosion and abrasion resistance on the blade.
- Integrated nail notch and ring allow fast adding of measured lengths: 2 cm from zero to the nail notch, 5 cm to the start of the ring; zero point at the start of the tape clasp.
- Ergonomic soft grip handle for secure, comfortable use all day on site.
Ideal for long-distance layout, exterior and interior measurements, and any job requiring secure mounting of the tape for accurate readings over extended distances.
We aim to make getting your coatings quick and reliable. All orders are safely packaged and sent via courier.
