Featuring a wide nylon-coated blade with triple measurement scales—Imperial, Engineer, and Metric—it offers unmatched versatility for professionals working on complex projects. Its rugged ABS plastic housing with a rubber grip jacket ensures secure handling and shock protection, while the optimized retraction system and double-sided claw hook deliver reliable, accurate measurements up to 40 feet. Ideal for directional drillers, surveyors, and engineers seeking a high-performance tape measure that stands out on any jobsite. ## Description Especially designed for the American Directional Driller® to measure bottom hole assembly equipment up to 40 feet. As of release, this product is unmatched in the marketplace making it uniquely useful to the general tape measure buyer. This heavy-duty 40-foot tape measure has three measurement scales on an extra wide blade. Both engineering scale (decimal feet) and imperial scale (inches / feet) are shown on the top side of the blade. The reverse side of the blade is metric for expat or international mobile assignments. There are 12.2 meters shown as 1,220 centimeters with highlighted markings every decimeter and meter. The smallest measurement unit shown is 100ths of feet, 16ths of inches, and 1 millimeter. This tape measure is Class II. Fast and efficient retraction at longer lengths and more reserved retraction at shorter lengths – but hey that’s how springs work! This one is optimized for both short and long extensions. Use the brake liberally if you do not handle big tapes often – it will also extend the life of your tape. American directional drillers will appreciate the engineering scale on easy-to-read 2/3rds track-width! The remaining 1/3rd track width is imperial inches and feet. A handy feature is that the total inches are shown rather than restarting the inch marks every foot length. If you need a foot reference, just look at the engineering scale below. This tape comes standard with a grip enhancing black rubber jacket on the ABS plastic housing to ensure maximum durability and grip at the rig site. Prolong the life of your new tape measure by keeping it both clean and dry. While it may be convenient, we recommend not throwing the tape measure off the 25-foot high drill floor. The end of the tape has a double claw for grabbing onto the drill pipe shoulder. No magnets in the claw since they are generally forbidden at the rigsite.

Thank you.** A: Some tool fanatics love to compare tape measure standout. It's a thing apparently. They'd say, "But how far does it standout though?" Give any man a new tape measure and he will test how far it stands out. To be honest, we didn't intend to elongate this "feature." When this tape measure is new, a one-handed standout can be UP TO 13+ feet in length. It's quite impressive but not surprising when you consider how heavy, thick, and wide the tape measure was made so as to achieve 40 total feet. The unpaid hand-model in this ridiculous video had never seen this tape measure before filming. **Q: Whats your warranty? Do you exchange if breaks or no longer fully retracts?** A: A 90-day no-hassle replacement can be arranged by contacting American Directional Driller through the Amazon website. If it's been longer than 90 days, contact us anyway and we'll work with you to address the problem quickly. **Q: Where is it made?** A: On earth. It works great and handles on all new motors in the industry today. Locks on most 4 1/2 -7 5/8 without having to clamp or tape down. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I loved this tape, had a few durability issues but the amazing customer service fixed that! *by R***S on March 12, 2021* Awesome tape, awesome customer service getting me a replacement, if you’re a land surveyor give this bad boy a try! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome tape.
