Stanley FMHT74226 FATMAX Classic 26ft/8m Tape Measure 2-Pack

Double Down on Accuracy and Durability.

The Stanley FMHT74226 FatMax 26'/8m Tape Measure 2-Pack gives you twice the performance for your most demanding job sites. Engineered for professionals who work across both Imperial and Metric standards, these tapes feature dual-scale graduations printed on a massive 1-1/4" wide blade. This wider profile isn't just for visibility; it delivers an industry-leading 11-foot blade standout, allowing for effortless one-person measurements over long spans without the tape buckling.

Built to survive the toughest environments, the FMHT74226 is protected by a high-impact ABS case with a non-slip rubber overmold. The first 6 inches of the blade are reinforced with BladeArmor® coating, a high-performance thermoplastic that reduces the risk of breakage by 95% at the hook—the most vulnerable part of any tape. With a heavy-duty Mylar® polyester film coating the entire blade, these tapes are designed to resist abrasion and rust for up to 10 times longer than standard lacquered blades.

Key Performance Features:

• Dual Metric & SAE Markings: Seamlessly switch between meters/millimeters and feet/inches on a single high-visibility blade.
• 11-Foot Blade Standout: Extra-wide 1-1/4" blade provides the stiffness needed for long-distance, solo measuring.
• BladeArmor® Reinforcement: Patented industrial coating on the first 6" of the tape prevents kinking and snapping at the hook.
• High-Impact ABS Case: Rugged housing with a cushion grip survives heavy drops and provides superior comfort during all-day use.
• Multi-Function Hook: Specially designed hook grabs onto materials from the top, bottom, or sides for ultimate versatility.
• Smooth Recoil System: Features a heavy-duty heat-treated spring for consistent, "smooth-as-silk" blade retraction every time.
