Steel Tape - FREEMANS

"Steel tapes" generally refer to steel measuring tapes, which are long, flexible rulers made of steel used primarily for measuring distances. They are commonly used in construction, engineering, land surveying, and various industrial applications where durability and accuracy over long distances are important.

Key Features of Steel Tapes:

1. Material: Made from high-quality steel or stainless steel, making them resistant to stretching and damage.

2. Length: Typically available in lengths ranging from 10 meters (33 feet) to over 100 meters (330 feet).

3. Markings: Calibrated in metric (millimeters, centimeters, meters) or imperial units (inches, feet).

4. Accuracy: Higher precision compared to cloth or fiberglass tapes, often conforming to standards like ISO or ASTM.

5. Case/Reel: Comes in an open or closed reel, crank-type for easy winding.
