Measuring tape Topex 20 m x 13 mm steel blade model 28C422

Steel measuring tape Topex 20 m x 13 mm (model 28C422) is a durable long-distance tape with a 13 mm wide steel blade and metric graduation up to 20 meters. Designed for construction, surveying and general measurement tasks, this tape offers a rigid steel blade that resists deformation during extended outreach and provides clear, easy-to-read markings for reliable length readings. The tape’s compact housing and precise rewind mechanism support repeated onsite use in both indoor and outdoor environments where accurate linear measurement is required.

Advantages

The Topex 20 m measuring tape combines a narrow yet rigid 13 mm steel blade with metric graduations for accurate readings at long distances. Its construction emphasizes durability and stable extension, reducing blade sag when measuring over long spans. The tape is built for consistent retraction and clear visibility of printed scales, enabling efficient measurement workflows on construction sites and during surveying tasks.

Suitable for

• Construction site linear measurements and layout work
• Landscaping and outdoor distance measurements
• Surveying and architectural measurements requiring extended reach
• General indoor measurements where a rigid steel blade is preferred

Key specifications

• Maximum length: 20 meters
• Blade width: 13 millimeters
• Blade material: steel with metric graduation
• Scale type: metric (centimeters and meters)
• Designed for outdoor and indoor use

How to use

Pull the steel blade from the housing to the required length, keeping the blade aligned with the measurement line. Use the printed metric scale to read the measurement at the blade’s end or hook point. For longer distances, hold the housing steady while extending the blade to reduce sag and improve accuracy. After measurement, retract the blade slowly into the housing using the rewind mechanism to avoid sudden snaps that may damage the blade or markings.

Usage recommendations

Store the tape in a dry place to prevent corrosion of the steel blade and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to preserve printed graduations. For best accuracy when measuring long spans, support the blade at intervals or use a second person to steady the tape. Inspect the blade and hook periodically for wear and replace the tape if markings become illegible or the blade is bent.
