As an experienced professional, to measure long distances you need a tape measure that can withstand heavy-duty use every single day. The LBM 1000 STEEL combines several advantages: a shatterproof Y-reel, a rugged steel blade to protect the scale, and a universal hook for variable attachment options. Depending on the situation and application, you can choose between the fold-out metal hook with STABILA SPIKES coating, an integrated eyelet, or the large plastic ring with a nail groove. Suitable for use with either hand by simply switching the crank.

Highlights

• Shatterproof Y-reel made of high-quality PC/ABS plastic protects the blade against shocks and impact.
• Steel blade with STABILA NYLON-WRAP coating provides optimum protection for the scale.
• Variable attachment options with the STABILA UNIVERSAL SPIKES HOOK.
• Easy crank switching – STABILA CRANK CHANGE.

• Rugged Y-reel tape measure with a scale in inches made of PC/ABS plastic protects the blade against shocks and impact.
• Ergonomic softgrip handle for comfortable handling.
• Extremely resistant STABILA NYLON-WRAP coating protects the blade against corrosion and wear.
• STABILA UNIVERSAL SPIKES HOOK: variable attachment options thanks to a fold-out SPIKES hook with an integrated eyelet and large, shatterproof plastic ring with a nail groove – for a secure hold when pulling the blade.
• STABILA SPIKES coating improves resistance to slipping on smooth surfaces and when measuring over long distances.
• The eyelet integrated into the hook enables quick release.
• STABILA CRANK CHANGE – crank easily switches from right-handed to left-handed operation.
• Clever plastic ring: easy to calculate the measured length – approx. 3/4 inch between zero and the notch, approx. 2 inches between zero and where the ring starts.
• The 0 is at the beginning of the blade clasp.
