Tape measure STANLEY Miara MICRO POWERLOCK 5 m blade 19 mm

STANLEY Miara MICRO POWERLOCK 5 m blade 19 mm is a compact measuring tape designed for accurate linear measurements in construction, renovation and everyday DIY tasks. The 5 metre blade with 19 mm width balances portability and readability, while the POWERLOCK mechanism provides a secure lock and controlled retraction to reduce wear and improve measurement repeatability. The housing size and blade design make this tape suitable for use in confined spaces and for on-site checks where a reliable, easy-to-operate measure is required.

Advantages

The MICRO POWERLOCK tape offers precise graduation visibility on a 19 mm blade for clear reading at common working distances. Its POWERLOCK locking system holds the blade firmly in place for stable measurements and prevents accidental retraction. The compact housing reduces bulk in a pocket or toolbag and enables one-handed operation. The controlled retraction mechanism protects the blade from sudden snaps, contributing to longer service life and safer handling.

Suitable for

• Measuring distances and layouts on construction sites
• Interior fitting and furniture installation
• DIY projects, repairs and renovation tasks
• On-site checks, quick dimensioning and marking

Key specifications

• Blade length: 5 m
• Blade width: 19 mm
• Locking system: POWERLOCK (secure blade lock and controlled retraction)
• Form factor: compact housing suitable for pocket use
• Blade material: reinforced steel blade for durability and wear resistance

How to use

Pull the blade out slowly to the required length and engage the POWERLOCK mechanism to fix the blade in position for accurate reading. Read the measurement from the graduated markings on the blade with the tape held straight and steady. Release the lock to allow controlled retraction of the blade back into the housing; avoid letting the blade snap back uncontrolled to maintain blade condition. Use one hand to stabilize the case and the other to extend or retract the blade for precise results in tight spaces.

Usage recommendations

Store the tape in a dry place and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture or corrosive environments. Clean the blade after use to remove debris and prevent damage to the graduation marks. Inspect the lock and retraction mechanism periodically; if the blade shows bends or heavy wear, replace the tape to ensure measurement accuracy and safe operation.
