Review on πŸŽ“ Graduation Auto Lock Construction Protective Fractions by Marc Hawkins

Revainrating 1 out of 5

3/32 " (2mm) inaccurate so returned

The holes for attaching the hook are punched in the wrong place on the strap. Using the hook for both inside and outside measurements gives an underestimate of 3/32 inch, or about 2 mm. It's not too bad if you're measuring a space for a rug, but totally unacceptable for fine carpentry work, which is where I would use this tape most of the time. So I'm sending it back for a refund as it's likely this entire product will be mass produced with the same defect. Another problem, a design flaw, is that a tape measure measures the distance between two parallel surfaces, such as a square. B. between the walls of a room, can not measure. The back of the case is not flat and is not even an inch from the front, which is common on US-made tapes with inch markings. collapse is sufficient. A pair of magnets built into the hook is a nice touch that might come in handy one day. The markings on the tape are clear and the millimeter markings line up correctly with the inch markings (254 mm = 10 inches). Of course I can't say how long it will last before it breaks. Proper placement of those punched hook holes isn't space station science, so it's surprising that such a flawed product would have been manufactured, let alone sold at Revain or anywhere else.

Pros
  • πŸ₯‡ FAST AND VERY SIMPLE MEASUREMENT WITH EASY TO READ SHOT MARKER With blade of equal width and thickness, self-locking retractable blade, shot mark easy to read, see shot mark blade.
Cons
  • Requires socket
