Product Description

Back in 1999 Komelon came out with the Gripper and its design was revolutionary. We took this design one step further and added our Speed mark fractional graduations to the blade. The 25-Feet Gripper speed mark has an easy grip, thick rubber jacket surrounding its ergonomic compact case. The blade on the Gripper speed mark is acrylic coated and has fractional graduations printed on the blade making it quick and easy to read. When you reach in your tool belt for a tape measure, make sure you feel the Gripper speed mark because everything else is substandard.

The best tape measure I've owned
5 Stars
The best tape measure I've owned
Standard for all my reviews: When reviewing products, I always remain objective and honest about the product or service. I always review with information that I feel others would like to know about the product as I always assume what I'm writing will influence for or against the purchase. I always try to go above and beyond surface characteristics and input into quality, value and application. Most importantly, I will always end the review with an answer as to whether I'd purchase the product again which I believe is the most critical question pertaining to the item. To manufacturers: Want me to review your items, just let me know!I love this Komelon Gripper Speed-Mark tape measure. My old thin/cheap one that I used upstairs finally pushed me to the brink to the point where I wanted a new one. I have a Craftsman that I use as well but that is in the 'shop.' If you're using a cheap tape measure, you know the dance of trying to get the tape to stay extended with our bending because of the cheap gauge of metal used in the tape. Not so with this Komelon. It's extremely sturdy. In fact, while holding the tape measure I can extend it almost 8' unsupported before it 'breaks.' Pretty incredible.Additionally, the gray tape is very easy to read and I love the measurements being listed in 1/8 increments with unlisted 1/16 marks as well. The roller mechanism is smooth and the locking mechanism sturdy and secure.A tape measure is one of those things easy to skimp on early in life when you don't understand the difference quality makes. And then when you upgrade, you'll never go back. This is the case with this Komelon and it's an easy repurchase if I need another one. I've even considered replacing my trusty Craftsman.
Thank you for your feedback
