Stanley 33-725 FatMax® 25' x 1-1/4" Tape Measure – Imperial

11-Foot Standout. BladeArmor™ Reinforcement. The World's Most Trusted Tape.

The Stanley 33-725 FatMax® is the benchmark by which all other tape measures are judged. Engineered for the professional who demands accuracy and extreme durability, this 25-foot tape features a massive 1-1/4" wide blade that delivers an industry-leading 11 feet of rigid standout. This allows you to take long, overhead, or horizontal measurements solo without the blade buckling, significantly increasing your efficiency on-site.

For the contractor at The Fastener Group, the FatMax is built to survive the "drop test." Encased in a high-impact ABS case with a durable rubber overmold, it handles the inevitable falls from ladders and scaffolding. Furthermore, the first 6 inches of the blade are coated in BladeArmor™, a high-performance thermoplastic coating that reduces the risk of tape breakage by 95% at the point of highest stress—the hook.

Key Features & Professional Benefits:

• 11' Rigid Blade Standout: Extra-wide 1-1/4" blade provides the stiffness needed for long-distance, one-person measuring.
• BladeArmor™ Technology: The first 6" of the blade are reinforced with a specialized coating to prevent the "kinking" and snapping common at the hook.
• Mylar® Polyester Film Coating: The entire blade is protected with Mylar® to ensure the scales remain legible and resist abrasion 10X longer than standard blades.
• Multi-Catch Hook: Specially designed hook grabs on the top, bottom, and sides, making it perfect for hooking onto studs, pipes, or rebar at any angle.
• High-Impact ABS Case: The chrome-finished case with rubber grip is designed to withstand heavy industrial use and extreme jobsite conditions.
• Top-Forward Blade Lock: Ergonomically designed lock makes it easy to secure the blade in place with a single thumb movement.
• Tru-Zero® End Hook: Allows for accurate inside and outside measurements by compensating for the thickness of the hook.
