One inch wide, clear, markings both sides, imperial/US only
One inch wide scale. One sixteenth inch minimum interval. Scale on both sides. Counts up in inches. Foot intervals labelled in feet, above one foot there are secondary markings showing how many inches you are into the new foot (not feet and inches). Multiples of sixteen inches are highlighted to keep the binary theme going, maybe useful for plasterboard studs. Only fully imperial (or US) modern tape measure have seen in the U.K. Useful for carpentry etc where raw materials from hardware shop are in millimetres but work out to round number of feet or inch fractions. Ideal companion to a millimetre only tape if you want to keep systems separate, ensure readability and be able to read same system both sides. Now U.K. is more exposed to non-EU suppliers imperial / US measured items seem more prevalent, so this tape measure is a handy tool for dealing with all that.

Great tape
I am really pleased with this, as I wanted an imperial-only tale. It displays exactly as I want reading cumulative inches in addition to feet and inches, and 16-inch indications as you'd expect. It doesn't display 32nds but that's too fine for my purposes anyway. The stand-out is acceptable and the case is robust. I may buy another actually because I would hate to lose this one.

Great Tape Measure.
Absolutely brilliant tape measure. Small, and ergonomically shaped but long enough, and wide enough, to use for general internal building/framing. Having markings on all four sides (top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right) means you're never trying desperately to twist the tape to get a reading. Also, has a super long stand out.

It’s printed in imperial
Perfect size, style and blade for what I needed. Only reason it received 3 stars is that it is printed imperial and we use metric here in the uk. Devastated as all my other belt tools are spec ops and is perfect in every way apart from the printing even tried to learn to convert sizes to use it but failed.

Great tape measure
Didn’t realise I needed a new tape, until I bought this one, love that it’s marked (large) on both sides and that it holds its own when extended without bending, really happy

Good for its price.
Clear and easy to read, handy having measurements on both sides of the tape, seems to be well made for the price as has survived being dropped several times,

This tape is awesome. I am a flooring installer and I use this tape all day everyday. I have owned many different tapes, all the big brands, and this one by far is the best. I've had it for over 6 months now and still works great, retracts fine, is not vent, it's very durable. I usually go through tapes every couple of months but this is still going strong

Le texte de l'annonce est mensonger, il n'y aucun centimètre ou mètre indiqué sur ce ruban, il est donc probable qu'il ne vous serve à rien ! Dommage car il semble très costaud ...

Está bien el diseño y los números se ven bien pero no viene en sistema inglés.

The Spec Ops Tools 25-foot tape measure is solid and feels military-grade. The 1" double-sided blade is easy to read, and the composite case is tough yet lightweight. The 25-foot length covers most jobs, and I like that 3% of proceeds go to veterans. A reliable and well-built tool for both professional and DIY use.
