The PMS-12 is a great example. Taking our popular Pad, Metric, Standard tape and packaging it in a smaller 12 foot version makes it a very compact tool. How many times do you measure anything longer than 12 feet? Review: One of the best to buy - One of the best metric tape measure you can buy. Not a lot of option available in the US to buy a quality metric tape measure. Accuracy is top notch. The locking mechanism is solid. The numbers are very easy to read and easy to mark on your wood. Review: My new favorite tape measure! - I am an American and do alot of woodworking and I grew up using imperial measurements. Think they taught it in school, but it was never pushed and sure not pushed in America in general. So, I have been working on switching over. There are so many good reasons to switch. This is a well made tape. Also, very easy to read, even with my tired eyes. It is also really thought out. First off, I noticed the belt clip has a spring level on it, such a great idea! I've always found it it a pain to get my tape measures hooked firmly on my belt, they solved that problem. Better yet, not only is there the normal lock button, there is another button underneath that is also spring loaded that is a quick on off lock. Another awesome idea. I am surprised another reviewer dinged it for having both imperial and metric on the same tape. First thought, then why did you buy it? But for me, it was one of the biggest reason I bought it. Since I am still in between, it's perfect because I can do imperial and metric at the same time. It will also help me GREATLY to transition between the two. It's a two in one tape and I love it. Could not be happier with this tape measure, the price is out standing and would gladly recommend! I'll be ordering the 16 ft version soon! ## Features - Rugged Compact Design - Designed with durability in mind, our tape measure is built to withstand the rigors of professional use.

The quality of the tape measure is very good. I like being able to write on the side of the tape and then wipe it off and the pencil sharpener comes in handy. This is the second FastCap tape measure I have purchased. ## Frequently Bought Together - FastCap ProCarpenter Metric/Standard Measuring Tape - Ideal for Professionals and Home Improvement - with Lever Action Belt Clip and Dual Locking System - 12' - 99954 - FastCap PSSR-16 16 Foot Pro Carpenter Standard Reverse Measuring Tape - FastCap ProCarpenter True32 Metric Reverse Measuring Tape - Ideal for Professionals and Home Improvement - with Lever Action Belt Clip and Dual Locking System - 16' - 99953 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/7647495-procarpenter-metric-standard-measuring-tape-ideal-for-professionals-and-home](https://www.desertcart.us/products/7647495-procarpenter-metric-standard-measuring-tape-ideal-for-professionals-and-home) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
