Steel Measuring Tape MEGA 50 m model 20345, durable tape measure for long-distance measurements

MEGA steel measuring tape model 20345 is a 50 m tape measure engineered for long-distance linear measurements. The steel blade offers high tensile strength and low stretch, enabling reliable length readings on construction sites, surveying tasks, landscaping and general measurement work. Its durable construction suits both indoor and outdoor use and supports repeated professional use where extended reach is required.

Advantages

The steel blade delivers resistance to stretching and improved durability compared with fabric or thin metal tapes. A clear, easy-to-read graduated scale ensures accurate readings at long distances, while a robust case protects the reel and blade from impact and dirt. The 50 m length reduces the need for repeated repositioning, speeding up measurements over large areas and improving efficiency on site.

Suitable for

• Construction site linear measurements
• Landscaping and garden planning
• Surveying and boundary checks
• Roadwork and utility layout
• General long-distance measurement tasks

Key specifications

• Tape material: steel blade designed for minimal stretch
• Length: 50 metres
• Graduation: metric scale with clear markings for precise readings
• Casing: robust protective housing to resist impacts and debris
• Reel type: manual winding mechanism for controlled retrieval

How to use

Extend the steel tape from the case to the required measurement point and keep the blade taut for an accurate reading. Hold the tape steady at the zero end and align the graduated markings with the target point. To retract, use the winding mechanism or carefully guide the blade back into the case to avoid kinking or sharp bends. Inspect the blade before use for nicks or bends that could affect accuracy and clean off mud or grit after outdoor use.

Usage recommendations

For best long-term accuracy, avoid letting the blade snap back into the case and store the tape in a dry place. When measuring over rough surfaces, protect the blade from cutting edges and keep it as straight and tensioned as practical. Periodically check the scale against a known reference to confirm reading precision.
