Stanley Tylon Pocket Tape 3m/10ft Carded

Honestly, wasn’t expecting to be so impressed by a tape measure, but the STANLEY 0-30-686 really is a cracking bit of kit. It’s small enough to chuck in your pocket or drawer, but still feels solid and well-made.The measurements are really clear and easy to read, and the tape doesn’t do that annoying floppiness some cheaper ones do. It snaps back smoothly and the lock holds it in place properly when you need it to.Great for little jobs around the house – measuring up furniture, shelves, whatever you’ve got going on. Just a proper no-nonsense tool that does what it says on the tin. Would definitely buy again if I ever lose it (which I probably will!).

Brilliant tape. Exactly what I want, both inches and centimetres on same side.Thank you.

Good, easy to see inches & cms tape measureBe careful not to release it too quickly as the edges on one of these was a little bit sharpAlso not the lightest, but so useful !

Lovely little tool. Good quality and a good price.

excellent

I'm always losing these so bought 2. Small ones like this are very useful when working on smaller projects. So, the tapes are very good but the mounting card is abysmal. Took ages to prise the tape off, constantly in fear of stabbing myself with knife or scissors. Otherwise would have given 5 stars.

The STANLEY 0-30-686 Tylon Tape is a great little tool! Its compact size makes it easy to carry around. Despite its small size, it feels sturdy and functional, perfect for quick measurements. The 3m/10ft length is ideal for everyday tasks, and the Tylon coating adds durability to the blade. Overall, I’m impressed with its reliability and convenience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a compact and efficient tape measure!

This tape measure is very compact and lightweight, being only the 3 metre version and is an excellent little tape measure to use. It has both cm and inch measurements and the tape is well printed and easy to read. I have the 5 metre version as well but sometimes, you just need a small, compact measure that does exactly what it says on the tin. This is that measure and, being by Stanley, it has that extra bit of quality. Recommended

I bought it for table top games, but I am suprised how often I grab it to use it for other things. Need to visualize how large 40 cm or 15 & 2/3 inches is? Just use it. Want to meassure something for whatever reason (how much space do I have to fit a couch? How wide is my current mat and how large would I want my replacement to be?) etc. etc. At this point I have this meassure tape with me at all times, just like a pocket knife, multitool and a lighter (I don't smoke). Simple tools that will always come in handy.

Great little tape measure to keep in your pocket when woodworking. I find 5-8m tapes too big and The 2m ones can be a little short.

Sono molto soddisfatto di questo metro avvolgibile da 3 metri. È un ottimo strumento per misurare, e si distingue subito per la sua praticità. L'aggancio integrato su un lato è incredibilmente comodo; permette di fissare il metro con facilità, lasciando le mani libere per segnare o tenere fermo l'oggetto da misurare.Ma il vero punto di forza, e ciò che me lo fa preferire nettamente ad altri modelli, è la chiarezza della scala graduata. A differenza di molti altri metri che indicano la decina di centimetri (es. 10, 20, 30) solo sull'unità (cioè sul "0" del decimetro), questo metro riporta la decina su ogni numero successivo. Per intenderci, dopo il 10 cm si legge chiaramente 11, 12, 13 e così via fino al 20, e poi di nuovo 21, 22, ecc.Questa caratteristica è fondamentale per evitare errori di lettura, specialmente quando si prendono misure al volo o in situazioni meno agevoli. I metri che omettono questa indicazione dettagliata possono facilmente indurre in errore, facendo confondere il 12 con il 2, o il 25 con il 5, se non si presta la massima attenzione. Con questo metro, invece, la misurazione è immediata e precisa, senza rischi di fraintendimenti.Lo consiglio vivamente a chiunque cerchi un metro avvolgibile affidabile, comodo da usare e, soprattutto, estremamente chiaro nella lettura. Un acquisto che vale la pena!

Good price and does the job. It is just what I expected. I would buy it again with no doubt

Good measuring tape,a bit small and thin,but still good for the price
