3 m / 10 ft Metric Tape Measure

The Teng Tools MT03 is a compact 3 m (10 ft) tape with a 13 mm (about 1/2 inch) wide blade graduated in both millimeters and inches. Teng Tools designed it for international use, so the same blade reads metric and imperial dimensions side by side, which suits shops that work on equipment specified in both systems.

Power return rewinds the blade automatically, a tape lock holds it extended while you take a reading or mark the work, and a belt clip keeps it secure when it is not in your hand. The aligning hook on the end of the blade is made for internal and external measurements, so it reads across the inside of an opening or over the outside of a part.

The case is ABS for durability, with a rubberized grip that gives a more secure hold, especially in wet or oily conditions. The whole tape weighs 91 g (3.2 oz), light enough to carry on a belt or in a pocket all day.

Teng Tools designs and manufactures the MT03 to Cat II, and it carries CE and UKCA marking. It is the same tape included in Teng Tools sets such as TC144E, TC144D, TTEPS12, TTEPS25, TTPS09, TTPS09E, SCPS01, SCPS01E and TTEX18, which makes it the matching replacement for one of those sets as well as a handy single tape for a toolbox, a van or a service cart.

What you get: one Teng Tools MT03 3 m (10 ft) tape, graduated in mm and inches, with belt clip.

• The 3 m (10 ft) blade is graduated in both millimeters and inches, so one tape reads a metric drawing or an imperial one without a conversion chart. That suits mixed work where some parts are specified in metric and others in inches, in a workshop, a service bay or on site. The blade is 13 mm (about 1/2 inch) wide and the whole tape weighs 91 g (3.2 oz).
• Power return rewinds the blade into the case automatically when you are done, so there is no hand winding. The tape lock holds the blade out while you take a reading, mark a cut line or check a second dimension, and the belt clip keeps the tape secure on a belt or pocket between jobs, which Teng Tools specifies for secure storage when the tape is being used.
• The aligning hook at the end of the blade is designed for both internal and external measurements. Use it to read across the inside of an opening, a cabinet or a frame, or hook it over the edge of a panel, a pipe or a part to measure the outside. One small tape covers both kinds of reading at the bench, under the hood or in the field.
• Teng Tools builds the case from ABS for durability and adds a rubberized grip for a more secure hold, especially when your hands are wet or oily. That matters in a garage, a plant room or a maintenance bay where a slippery tape gets dropped. At 3 m long and 91 g, it rides on a belt or in a pocket all day without getting in the way.
• Teng Tools designs and manufactures this tape to Cat II, and it carries CE and UKCA marking. It is the same 3 m tape that Teng Tools includes in sets such as TC144E, TC144D, TTEPS12, TTEPS25, TTPS09 and SCPS01, so it also works as the direct replacement when the tape from one of those sets has gone missing.
