Stanley STA030696N Tylon Pocket Tape Measure 5m 19mm Blade

Accurate measurement is the foundation of every successful job, whether you're fitting kitchens, installing stud walls, or carrying out general DIY tasks. The Stanley STA030696N Tylon Pocket Tape Measure 5m is built for everyday reliability, combining durability, comfort, and precision in a compact, easy-to-carry format.

Featuring a 5 metre (16ft) blade length and a 19mm blade width, this tape measure provides the ideal balance between reach and blade stability for general construction and interior work. The blade is coated with Stanley’s Tylon™ protective layer, which enhances durability, improves wear resistance, and offers greater corrosion protection compared to standard lacquered blades. This makes it suitable for regular site use where moisture and dust are common.

The clearly marked blade displays both metric and imperial graduations, allowing flexible working across different job specifications. A positive blade lock mechanism ensures the blade remains securely extended during marking and measuring, reducing movement and improving accuracy.

At the tip, the Tru-Zero hook is secured with triple rivets for improved strength and long-term durability. The sliding hook design compensates automatically for both internal and external measurements, helping eliminate common measuring errors when checking inside recesses or external edges.

The tape is housed in an impact-resistant ABS plastic case, designed to withstand jobsite knocks and drops. An ergonomic over-mould improves grip and comfort during prolonged use, making it suitable for daily trade applications.

Compact enough for pocket storage yet durable enough for professional environments, the Stanley Tylon 5m Tape Measure is a dependable essential for carpenters, builders, installers, electricians, plumbers, and serious DIY users alike.
