This STABILA BM30 Pocket Tape features an unbreakable plastic capsule with a curved yellow steel band marked with cm/mm and inch graduations. The hooks are coated with STABILA Spikes for enhanced slip resistance, even on smooth surfaces. The polyamide coating protects the scale from abrasion, and it includes an automatic tape rewind. A slider brake allows for stopping and fixing the tape, and a material-friendly buffer is present at the belt infeed.
