Stanley STA998985 Tylon Pocket Tape Measure 2 Pack 5m and 8m

Accurate measurement is the foundation of quality work — whether you're framing walls, installing kitchens, setting out flooring, or tackling home DIY projects. The Stanley STA998985 Tylon Pocket Tape Measure Twin Pack delivers dependable performance with two of the most practical sizes for trade and domestic use.

This set includes:

• 5m (16ft) Tape Measure – ideal for indoor work and general carpentry

• 8m (26ft) Tape Measure – suited for larger spaces, framing, and outdoor tasks

Both tapes feature Stanley’s Tylon blade coating, which enhances blade durability, improves corrosion resistance, and increases blade life compared to uncoated tapes. The protective coating also helps maintain clear, legible markings over extended use.

The Tru-Zero hook system is designed to compensate for both internal and external measurements by allowing slight hook movement, improving measurement accuracy. A triple rivet hook construction strengthens the blade attachment point for added durability under repeated use.

Each tape is housed in a bi-material case, providing improved grip and impact resistance. The textured finish enhances control, particularly in colder or dusty jobsite conditions.

The positive blade lock mechanism ensures stable, accurate readings while marking out or transferring measurements.
