Measuring Tape MATTEO model 0794 — fabric strap and leather, 25 mm width, 40–60 cm length

MATTEO measuring tape model 0794 is a compact tape-style measuring tool combining a 25 mm wide fabric strap with leather reinforcement. Intended for measuring lengths between 40 and 60 cm, this measuring tape is designed specifically for tasks that require a short, flexible measuring length and a durable attachment point. The fabric strap provides a soft, pliable surface that conforms to curved and flat surfaces, while the leather reinforcement adds strength where the strap connects to fixtures or handling points.

Advantages

The combination of a textile strap and leather reinforcement yields a balance of flexibility and durability without adding bulk. A 25 mm width offers clear visibility of markings and stable alignment along seams or edges. The limited 40–60 cm range reduces excess tape during close measurements and improves control for precision tasks. Lightweight construction supports prolonged use in tailoring and sewing contexts.

Suitable for

• Tailoring and dressmaking measurements around the body (waist, bust, hips)
• Sewing and pattern adjustments for garments and accessories
• Fitting and alterations where short, precise measurement is required
• Small craft and hobby projects that need flexible, soft measuring tape

Key specifications

• Strap material: woven fabric with leather reinforcement at attachment points
• Strap width: 25 mm
• Measuring length: adjustable from 40 cm up to 60 cm
• Construction: flexible textile strap designed for conformity to curves
• Weight: lightweight for handheld use (compact design)

How to use

Place the fabric strap along the surface or body part to be measured and ensure the strap lies flat without twists. Hold the leather-reinforced end steady at the starting point and extend the strap to the required measurement within the 40–60 cm range. Read the marking at the endpoint while keeping the strap taut but not stretched to preserve accuracy. For repeated measurements, position the strap consistently at the same reference points to maintain repeatability.

Usage recommendations

Store the measuring tape flat or rolled loosely to avoid creases in the fabric strap and protect leather reinforcement from prolonged exposure to moisture. Clean textile surfaces with a soft, dry cloth and condition leather sparingly with a suitable leather care product to preserve flexibility. Avoid stretching the strap beyond its calibrated length to maintain measurement accuracy.
