Product Expert Notes
The 25 ft. FATMAX Classic is the standard length for framing, siding and layout work, and the 1-1/4 in. blade gives noticeably more stand-out than narrow economy tapes. The BladeArmor coating at the hook is worth having since the hook end takes the most abuse on a job site. Choose a 16 ft. tape for finish work or a 30-40 ft. tape for long spans, but for most crews this is the everyday size.
Blade edges can be sharp and the retraction is spring-loaded — keep fingers clear of the blade opening and wear gloves and eye protection when letting the blade retract at speed.
