Stanley STHT33989-8 5m x 19mm Stainless Steel Measuring Tape

Blade length: 16 ft. Blade material: stainless steel. Readings: inches, centimeters, and fractions. End hook: 2 rivets. Locking: auto‑lock with release button. Case: impact‑resistant rubber for safe storage and transport.

Press the push button to engage the lock as you extend the blade. Release to allow retraction. The auto‑lock enables one‑handed operation and helps you hold the measurement while you mark or transfer it.

The blade is stainless steel for edge retention and corrosion resistance, the yellow finish improves visibility, and the case has an impact‑resistant rubber shell to withstand drops and rough handling.

Yes. The blade features clearly printed imperial markings (inches and fractions) and metric marks (centimeters) for quick, versatile measurements.

Ideal for carpentry, cabinetry, tiling, framing, furniture fitting, and general DIY projects—anything that requires quick, accurate surface measurements from walls, doors, or materials.

Lock the blade at the start point using the end hook, extend to the measurement, and read the value at eye level. For inside measurements, take from the inner edge; for outside measurements, use the end hook as a stop.

Keep blade dry and clean, wipe off dirt after use, retract slowly to protect the blade, and store in the impact‑resistant rubber case when not in use.

Keep fingers away from the blade edge, avoid bending or kinking the blade, release the blade slowly, and latch the end hook onto edges securely to prevent slips or injuries.
