Product Overview
The Klein Tools 9216 Heavy-Duty Tape Measure is engineered for demanding industrial and electrical environments. Featuring a 16-foot reach and a 13-foot standout, this durable measurement tool utilizes a double-sided imperial (SAE) scale for maximum versatility. Its impact-resistant housing is over-molded with a soft-touch finish to ensure a secure grip, while the tough steel blade is protected by a nylon coating to withstand harsh job site conditions.
Designed with electricians and technicians in mind, the 9216 model includes a printed Conduit Bending Table and a 3-Phase Layout Guide directly on the reverse side of the blade. A magnetic double hook easily attaches to ferromagnetic surfaces such as steel studs, panels, and conduit for hands-free operation, while the retraction speed brake provides superior control and protects fingers during use.
