It features an easy grip, thick rubber jacket to protect the case. Review: Heavy, sturdy, easy to read! - This is a great, heavy duty, pure metric tape measure. It is probably the heaviest tape measure I've ever felt, but it is also the most stable tape measure I've ever used. you can pull out the tape and the base will stay still and sit itself very well on a flat surface. The measurements are very easy to read and I like that its in centimeters with the millimeter markings (I'd rather work with smaller numbers with decimals than very large millimeter counts when working on larger construction projects). It also retracts back into its housing smoothly and easily. The only thing I wish it had was an auto-locking feature when you pull the tape out. But I haven't seen a single metric-only tape measure that has this feature, so I think this one is currently the best option. It does have a button at the bottom you can hold down to keep the tape out, or you can slide down the lock button to keep it locked as well. I feel victorious every time I use this tape measure as it means that I (the Canadian) have finally swayed my husband (the American) to a more accurate (as well as easier) way of measuring. Review: Hefty and Accurate! - I've gone metric! I'm tired of feet and fractions of inches when doing DIY projects. To help me with this I originally bought a metric on the bottom, imperial on the top tape measure but that was troublesome if I wanted to make a metric measurement on the top edge of the tape. That tape measure has since become my out and about device because even though my projects are metric I still have to buy in imperial. This Komelon is pure metric with millimeter and centimeter markings top and bottom. It is a solid chunk of thing (490g), not convenient for a typical pocket but also hard to lose. The tape will extend out full to the advertised 8m, and there is large warning to STOP after that, so there is plenty of warning before the mechanism is messed up. From the fully extended length the mechanism will draw back all but the last 1.5m of tape, but pushing in a bit will bring the mechanism back into play and draw the remaining tape. Checking the markings with calipers as far as I can tell the millimeter and centimeter markings are spot on. This tape numbers each centimeter from 1 (which along with 2 is hidden by the hooked tab) to 800. Every ten centimeters are marked in large red numbers all the way up to the 800 mark. Meters are not distinguished in any special way. All in all, I'm pleased with this purchase and highly recommend it! Join me, join the rest of the world, go metric! ## Features - 8m-Feet by 25mm nylon coated steel blade - Easy grip, thick rubber jacket - Ergonomic, compact case design - Measures in metric scale - Triple riveted end hook ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0064XJTFY | | Best Sellers Rank | #41,877 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #152 in Tape Measures | | Blade Length | 8 Meters | | Blade Material | rubber | | Blade Width | 25 Millimeters | | Brand | Komelon | | Brand Name | Komelon | | Case Material | Rubber | | Case Material Type | Rubber | | Color | Yellow/Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 1,385 Reviews | | Included Components | 1 Tape measure | | Item Dimensions L x W | 3.5"L x 3.5"W | | Item Type Name | Metric Tape Measure | | Item Weight | 0.01 Ounces | | Lock Type | Slide | | Manufacturer | Komelon USA | | Measurement Accuracy | +/- 0.03 in | | Model | PG85 | | Part Number | PG85 | | Product Dimensions | 3.5"L x 3.5"W | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Manufacturer defect only | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Komelon - **Color:** Yellow/Black - **Item Weight:** 0.01 Ounces - **Measurement Accuracy:** +/- 0.03 in - **Product Dimensions:** 3.5"L x 3.5"W ## Images ![Komelon PG85 8m by 25mm Metric Gripper Tape, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71s9Jg+aHBL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heavy, sturdy, easy to read! *by K***R on January 6, 2016* This is a great, heavy duty, pure metric tape measure.
