Blades
For over 40 years, Keson fiberglass tapes have set the highest standards for accuracy and durability. These tapes are engineered to resist breakage and damage under the most demanding conditions. Each blade is coated with two layers of PVC for enhanced protection and longevity. The first layer binds the fiberglass strands, while the second layer covers the printed units, ensuring the numbers remain visible and accurate over time.
Fiber Count & Tape Weight
Keson fiberglass reinforced tapes are designed to withstand more wear and tear than any other type of fiberglass measuring tape. They contain 40,000 fiberglass strands for greater tensile strength and superior accuracy when tension is applied. The tapes are coated with two layers of PVC, and a blade shield adds strength to the attachment point, which is where most fiberglass tapes tend to break. These tapes have proven dielectric strength of 200,000 V/M to ensure safety from electrical hazards.
Elongation
Tapes elongate (stretch) when excessive pulling force is applied. Keson heavy-duty fiberglass tapes always return to their proper length after the pulling stops, thanks to the high fiberglass strand count. To maintain accurate measurements, avoid pulling too hard when measuring.
Housings
Keson offers a variety of housing types to meet different needs: Freewheeling Long Tape (FLT), 3X High-Speed Rewind (OTRS), and Standard 1X Rewind (OTR). All housings feature double-riveted or screwed cases, metal-reinforced handles, and shovel-style rubber grips for enhanced durability and comfort.
