The Stanley 2 Piece FatMax Blade Armor Tape Measure Kit is a professional-grade measuring set that combines long-term blade durability with robust construction, making it well suited to both site work and home projects. The standout feature of the FatMax Blade Armor range is the Mylar coating applied to the first section of the blade — the area most prone to wear. This transparent protective layer provides up to 10x greater abrasion resistance, keeping graduations legible far longer than a standard uncoated blade. It’s a practical solution for anyone who relies on accurate markings day after day. The tape housing is built to the same standard, with rubber overmoulding providing a secure, comfortable grip and meaningful impact resistance on site. The 3-rivet, corrosion-resistant Tru-zero hook supports accurate inside and outside measurements from multiple positions — top, bottom, and side — while the forward blade lock makes one-handed operation straightforward. EC Class II accuracy rating confirms the tapes meet recognised standards for professional measuring work. This kit includes both a 5 metre and an 8 metre tape, covering the measurement range needed for most carpentry, construction, and home improvement tasks.
