Measuring Tape Rockforce RF-5096P36727 — 7.5 m length, 27 mm blade width

Rockforce RF-5096P36727 is a retractable measuring tape designed for general measuring tasks in construction, carpentry and DIY. It features a 7.5 m steel blade with clear metric graduations and a 27 mm blade width that balances reach and stability. The compact housing allows easy transport in a toolbox or belt pouch, while the spring-retract mechanism returns the blade smoothly after use. This measuring tape is intended for linear measurements, site layout and quick on-site checks where a reliable, easy-to-read metric tape is required.

Advantages

The 27 mm wide steel blade provides improved stiffness for longer unsupported measurements and clear printed metric markings for fast reading. A 7.5 m length extends measuring range compared with standard shorter tapes, reducing the need for repositioning. The retractable mechanism ensures convenient one-hand operation and secure storage of the blade when not in use. The compact housing makes the tool portable and suitable for frequent use on job sites.

Suitable for

• Measuring walls, floors and openings in construction and renovation
• Carpentry layout and furniture assembly
• On-site quick checks and dimensional verification
• DIY home projects and workshop use

Key specifications

• Blade length: 7.5 metres
• Blade width: 27 mm
• Blade material: steel
• Graduation: metric scale (millimetres and centimetres)
• Retractable spring mechanism for automatic retraction
• Compact housing for portable storage

How to use

Pull the blade out by the end hook until the required length is reached, hook the end on the measurement point and read the metric graduation at the housing edge. Use the housing edge or the end hook as a reference depending on inside or outside measurements. Release the locking mechanism if fitted to allow controlled retraction, keeping fingers clear of the blade path during return to avoid injury.

Usage recommendations

Store the tape in a dry place and avoid repeated uncontrolled rewinds to extend blade life. Clean the blade from debris and moisture after use and inspect the end hook and housing for damage before measuring long distances. For best accuracy, ensure the blade is straight and not twisted during measurement.
