Stanley STA033720 Fatmax Armor Metric 5m Tape Measure 0-33-720

My previous FatMax tape measure (8m type) lasted less than 2 years but that is down to using it in harsh salt environments doing foreshore surveys and not a reflection on the quality. The tape is smooth, good value for money and clear to read. Would've still liked inches on the tape, my fault for not noticing that in the description. Good size and easier in the hand than the 8m version.

The best tape measure by far, easy to read, fantastic for measuring, great durability and reach. Comes in quick, just be conscious the header end. If you need to take pictures for your work. Get this as all the others will get on your nerves.

Great product perfect for my job

I love Stanley Fat Max tape measures, and at this price I love them more. Good quality, easy to hold, blade lock is easy, stand out is good, they are reasonably robust, and I like the pocket clip. Rewind is good but you need to control it so the tape end doesn't slam into the body.

Good quality metric tape measure with amazing standout length. Worth the price at £13.80. Recommended if you want a metric only scale. Pros. + Clear metric scale on both edges of blade for quick left or right handed operation + Amazing standout length. + Smooth operation + Robust rubberised housing + Belt clip Cons - Measurements on upper side only - Heavy (372 grams) - Not auto-locking - heavy manual locking requires a noticeable amount of force to engage

Love the quality of fatmax

I probably break one a year they get constant use all day. The 5 is too small and the 10 is so heavy. They are good value so can't complain
