Measuring tape EPM Miara stalowa 50 m model E-400-0253 — steel survey tape, 50m

EPM Miara stalowa 50 m (model E-400-0253) is a 50‑meter steel survey tape designed for accurate linear distance measurement in surveying, construction and land management. The tape's steel ribbon provides high dimensional stability and resistance to stretching compared with textile or fiberglass tapes, making it suitable for repeated outdoor use where long, straight measurements are required.

Advantages

The steel construction ensures minimal elongation and consistent length over time, supporting reliable measurements on level ground and gentle slopes. A durable finish protects the tape from weathering and mechanical wear, while the rigid ribbon reduces sag over long spans. The compact reel and integrated handle allow controlled retraction and convenient transport between sites.

Suitable for

• Linear distance measurement on construction sites and land plots
• Topographic surveys and boundary marking
• Site layout, excavation and staking out long lines
• Utility corridor measurement and outdoor engineering tasks

Key specifications

• Length: 50 metres
• Tape material: steel ribbon for dimensional stability
• Markings: high-contrast measurement graduations for visibility
• Reel type: hand-wound with ergonomic handle for controlled rewinding
• Finish: corrosion-resistant coating for outdoor durability

How to use

Unwind the steel tape along the line to be measured, ensuring the ribbon is pulled taut between the start point and the end point to minimise sag. Use the end hook or anchoring point at the tape tip where available to keep the start position fixed. Read the measurement at the point aligned with the fixed start, keeping the tape straight and avoiding kinks or bends that could affect accuracy. After measurement, rewind the tape evenly onto the reel to prevent twisting and to preserve the tape's condition.

Usage recommendations

Store the tape in a dry environment and clean off dirt or moisture before rewinding to reduce corrosion risk. Avoid sharp bends or forcing the ribbon around tight corners. For precise surveys, perform measurements with gentle tension and check alignment with a secondary reference if necessary. Regularly inspect the tape markings and coating for wear and replace the tape if the graduations become illegible or if the ribbon shows deformation.
