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.
