Description

Crescent Lufkin ST50-07 3/8″ x 50ft Steel Construction Long Tape

Built for the Long Haul.

The Crescent Lufkin ST50-07 50-Foot Steel Long Tape is the professional's choice for precise site layout and heavy-duty construction measurements. Unlike fiberglass tapes that can stretch under tension, this 3/8-inch yellow-clad steel blade provides consistent, dead-on accuracy every time. The blade is treated with a specialized clear coat that provides superior resistance to abrasion and corrosion, ensuring the markings stay legible even after months of use in dirt, mud, and grit.

Housed in a high-visibility, impact-resistant open frame, the ST50-07 is designed for rapid deployment and even faster retrieval. The cushion-grip handle provides a comfortable, non-slip feel during long measuring sessions, while the large-ratio winding mechanism ensures the blade retracts smoothly without binding. Whether you are laying out a foundation or measuring commercial framing, this 50-foot steel tape delivers the rugged reliability that edmfast.com customers demand.

Key Performance Features:

  • Stretch-Resistant Steel Blade: 3/8" wide steel core ensures 100% accuracy over long spans without the elasticity of fiberglass.
  • Ultra-Durable Clear Coat: Specialized blade coating protects against chemicals, rust, and abrasion on rough job sites.
  • Compact Open-Frame Design: Reduces weight and allows for easy cleaning; simply rinse out dirt and debris after use.
  • High-Impact ABS Case: Engineered to survive drops on concrete and heavy-duty industrial use.
  • Precision End Hook: Features a folding hook that grips securely to stakes or boards for one-person operation.
  • Ergonomic Crank Handle: Large folding crank and smooth gearing provide effortless, high-speed blade retrieval.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose a steel blade over fiberglass for a 50ft tape? +
Steel blades like the ST50-07 provide significantly higher accuracy because they do not stretch under tension. This makes them the preferred choice for engineering, foundation work, and any application where 1/8" precision is critical over a 50-foot span.
Is the blade easy to read in direct sunlight? +
Yes. The yellow-clad finish is specifically designed for high-contrast visibility. Combined with large black markings and red "stud" notations, it remains easy to read even in bright, outdoor job site conditions.
How do I maintain the tape after using it in the rain or mud? +
The open-frame design makes cleaning simple. After exposure to mud or water, fully extend the blade, wipe it down with a clean rag, and allow it to dry before retracting. The clear-coat finish provides excellent rust resistance.
