Pittsburgh DuraLock Ft Tape Measure Review

When I tried this product I was impressed with its durability and ease of use .The tape itself feels sturdy, CAPABLE of withstanding daily use in an industrial setting. The locking mechanism also worked smoothly, making it easy to get accurate measurements every time. The only downside was the slightly larger size, which can make it difficult to carry around in a pocket or tool belt. Overall, I would highly recommend this tape measure for anyone in need of reliable dimensional measurement…

The first ribbon I received was torn. They quickly sent replacements. The second band was only used for a week and now does not fully retract when worn. I can stuff the tape back in the case, but what a master has the time for that. As you can see in the photo, the lock is removed and the tape will not retract. I bought this tape measure because it didn't have all the fractions written on it and it didn't have hooks on the end of the tape. Although disappointed. Hope this helps another handyman
