Question 1

What is the Stanley STHT36125-812 13mm 3m Yellow Short Measuring Tape used for?

Accepted Answer

This tape measure is designed for precise everyday measuring tasks. It combines a secure PowerLock blade with a durable stainless steel blade, a readable dual-scale (metric and imperial) layout, and a comfortable bi-material case for improved grip during carpentry, remodeling, and DIY projects.

Question 2

What are the key specifications of this tape measure?

Accepted Answer

Key specs include a 3-meter length, a 13mm blade width, a stainless steel blade with protective coating, dual metric/imperial markings, PowerLock mechanism for secure locking, a rust-resistant hook with 3 rivets, and a bi-material ergonomic case for better grip and control.

Question 3

What is PowerLock and why is it important?

Accepted Answer

PowerLock is a locking mechanism that secures the blade in place while taking measurements, reducing blade drift and ensuring repeatable, accurate readings. It also helps the blade extend cleanly for longer standout distances.

Question 4

What makes the blade durable and resistant to wear?

Accepted Answer

The blade is made of stainless steel with a protective coating. This combination provides long-lasting durability, resists corrosion, and maintains legibility of the measurement marks even with frequent use.

Question 5

What is the benefit of the bi-material case?

Accepted Answer

The bi-material (two-material) case gives a comfortable, non-slip grip and improved handling, especially when working in tight spaces or during extended measuring sessions.

Question 6

How do I use and lock/retract the blade safely?

Accepted Answer

Extend the blade to the measurement point, press the PowerLock lever to secure the blade, then read the measurement. To retract, release gradually with the lock engaged or use the blade tip to control retraction, keeping fingers away from the blade edge.

Question 7

Are metric and imperial markings available on this tape?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The tape features dual-scale markings that provide both metric and imperial measurements for quick conversions and versatile use in different projects.

Question 8

What are common use cases for this measuring tape?

Accepted Answer

Common use cases include interior finishing, cabinet and furniture setup, framing and carpentry, DIY home projects, and any task requiring precise short- to mid-range measurements in both metric and imperial units.

Question 9

How should I care for and maintain the tape measure?

Accepted Answer

Keep the blade clean and dry after use, wipe off any dust or debris, and store in a dry place. Avoid exposing the blade to harsh chemicals. Periodically check the hook and lock mechanism for smooth operation.

Question 10

How does this Stanley model compare to other PowerLock options on Fepy?

Accepted Answer

Compared to other PowerLock tapes on Fepy, this 3m model emphasizes compact size, quick readability with dual-scale markings, and a durable stainless steel blade with a protective coating. For longer reach, consider 5m or 7.5m PowerLock options on Fepy: Alternative A: Stanley PowerLock 3m Tape Measure (https://fepy.com/product/stanley-powerlock-3m-tape-measure) and Alternative B: Stanley PowerLock 5m Tape Measure (https://fepy.com/product/stanley-powerlock-5m-tape-measure).

Question 11

What is the return policy if I need to exchange or return this item?

Accepted Answer

If you need to return or exchange, items can be returned within 30 days in unused condition with original packaging. Conditions may apply; contact customer support for guidance on the return process.

Question 12

How do I choose the right tape length for a project?

Accepted Answer

For quick interior measurements and short runs, a 3m tape is highly portable and sufficient. If you frequently measure longer distances, a 5m or 7.5m tape provides more flexibility. Blade width (13mm) offers durability and helps with grabbing the edge and reducing deflection during measurement.
