Autolock Tape, 8m Metric Only

As a professional have had several tape measures and find this Fatmax to be the best. On my second one now. The first lasted about 18 months of daily use. It's still works but is quite tatty and worn so only get used in wet / dirty conditions to preserve the new one. Positives: quility build, great standout length, autolock feature, comfortable to use, easy to read, strong magnet. Negatives: autolock creeps at longer extensions. Belt clip is awkward to use. At this price point would be nice to have dual scale. I.e measurements on both sides of the tape, but it doesn't.

Excellent tape measure, nice and sturdy and love that it doesn't retract without switching to retract button. The two accessory blades are great, the magnetic blade is very strong and works very well, the hook over blade might have worked well but it fell off at some point was lost. The accessory holder slots could be improved to enable the accessory blades to be held securely when not in use.

Perfect strong tape. Would happily recommend

I'm am happy with the quality of this product, and love the metric only aspect the most. Maybe either give a magnet with the tape measure or explain better how to replace the front addon.

This tape was strong and durable. Groundworks is not an easy environment for humans or most tools, but this tape lasted well. I tend to wipe clean of if I can to avoid dirt buildup in the housing, so this helps with longevity. The lock mechanism feels strong, the blade seems strong and I love having ONLY METRIC on this as you always have that moment where you want to put a mark on something and it’s the wrong side of the tape! I’ve only just got this purchase as I “misplaced” my last so hoping it will last well.

Great robust tape measure, which comes with an interchangeable magnetic head which was stiff to remove or place at first but the more you use it the easier it becomes. One minor issue if you can call it that this model only comes in metric measurement.

Great tape! I've had a lot of cheap tapes over the years, and this just shows you get what you pay for. I've been using this tape for 7 months now and it's still going strong. The magnet is strong on it, holding the tapes weight when hung from an RSJ (even though I'm sure thats not what it's intended for). I found the changeable end a little superfluous, but perhaps thats just because I didn't have a use for it and ultimately lost it. All round a good metric only tape that lasts! Would buy again.

This tape measure does the job perfectly—reliable, easy to read, and durable. However, the extra bits like the end cap and the clip seem to vanish into thin air every time I use it. I swear, one minute they’re there, the next… gone. Still, it’s a great tape measure if you don’t mind occasionally hunting for the missing pieces!

After a few months of using this most days I have to say it’s a nice looking & robust product & the tape itself is very good, but!! The return is REALLY weak & the lock does NOT lock the tape! You have to help the return & the on the lock the tape creeps back in. It doesn’t stay out. This thing has one job & it fails miserably! I’ve tossed my one in the trash & will be looking for something better.

Regge come da descrizione i 230 cm , ottimo , largo , comodo. Nulla da aggiungere

Item as described, robust and nice to have.

Works quite well, but when the brake is applied, it is still very easy to move the scale.

Ok 👌
