Measure with precision using this compact tape measure from Stanley. Engineered to strike a balance of size, performance, and comfort, the CONTROL-LOCK features a finger brake for controlled blade retraction, a durable blade coating, and a rugged case built for everyday job site use.

• 12 ft tape length with 10 ft of standout reach for one-person measuring
• Finger brake on the case controls blade retraction for safer recoil
• BladeArmor coating on the first 3 inches reinforces the hook end against wear
• Tru-Zero dual-sided hook grabs edges from either side and doubles as a pivot for arcs and circles
• Polymer blade coating resists abrasion and ink smudging
• 3/4" wide blade with imperial fractional graduations (1/16" major, 1/32" minor)
• ABS plastic case sized to fit a tool belt or pants pocket

Best for: punch list work, finish carpentry, cabinetry, and tight indoor measurements where a slim 12 ft pocket tape beats hauling a 25 ft case.

Tip: Hook the Tru-Zero edge over the head of a nail or screw to scribe a clean arc when laying out radius cuts.
