Frequently Asked Questions

What does tape measure?

A tape measure, or measuring tape, is a hand tool commonly used to measure distance or size. It resembles a flexible, elongated ruler and typically includes a case, thumb lock, blade/tape, hook, and sometimes a belt clip. Tape measures can have imperial readings, metric readings, or both.

How to read the tape measure?

Reading a tape measure involves identifying the units (imperial or metric), understanding the markings for inches or centimeters, using the hook for accuracy, and reading the measurement where the tape meets the object. The thumb lock can secure the tape in place for more precise readings.

Do tape measures show meters?

Yes, tape measures can show meters, especially in metric tape measures. Alongside centimeters, the larger markings often denote full meters, while smaller markings indicate centimeters and millimeters. This allows for precise measurements in both metric and imperial units, depending on the tape measure's design.
