Hultafors Tools 1
Tape measures with precision. MAKE SURE YOU GET I
T RIGHT THE FIRST TIME. The most important consideration when choosing a tape measure is precision. High precision tools reduce the risk of errors. Hultafors steel tape measures offer the highest precision on the market – EU Class 1. The majority of our measuring tapes are graduated using inkjet technology to achieve the high level of precision. Our range includes both short and long tape measures in several materials, reaching from 3 metres to 100 metres. SHORT STEEL TAPE BT Double printed blade with CC-scale on the back. Ergonomic grip. Unique belt clip with a quick release function that allows the tape to be released with one hand. Graduated using highly accurate inkjet print. Ergonomic thumb brake for easy blade locking. Coated with a layer of matt polyester lacquer for an anti-reflective effect. Integrated bump stop for blade return protection. CC-graduation for every 30/60 and 45 cm on back of the blade. Rubber end-hook with clearance for internal and external measurement. EU class I and II. TAPE MEASUREMENT ACCURACY. Measurement accuracy is a very important feature of a tape measure. It is measured and stated in the form of a tolerance class. In Europe, we normally classify measuring tapes in EU Class I and EU Class II. The accuracy is measured at 20 °C and 50 N pull force for steel tape and 20 °C and 20 N pull force for fibreglass tape. Seasonal adaptation. TEMPERATURE AFFECTS THE LENGTH. Major temperature changes can have a significant effect on the length of a steel tape measure. The tolerance for our tape measures apply at 20 °C. We often experience significant temperature differences between summer and winter. That is why it is important to be aware of the measurement deviations for various temperatures.
