Products tagged with 'magnetic tape measure'

Use it for HVAC ductwork installations, ceiling grid applications, metal stud framing, fencing installation, and more. A powerful magnet and self-supporting 1” wide blade makes one person measurements and measuring elevations an easy task. To read a metric measuring tape, find the nearest whole centimeter to the end point. Examine the remaining indicator lines to see how many millimeters are left over. Add those to the whole centimeters, using a decimal. For example, say you measure 20 whole centimeters and there are 6 millimeter marks left over. The metric system is usually the bottom row and will contain smaller numbers, while the imperial system is usually the top row and contains larger numbers. For extra confirmation, you can also check for letter labels that say “cm” or “meter”/“m” since those are metric measurements. A magnetic tape drive is a storage device that makes use of magnetic tape as a medium for storage. It uses a long strip of narrow plastic film with tapes of thin magnetizable coating. Put simply 1 = 1", 2 = 2" and so on. Between those numbers are a series of shorter marks which represent fractions of an inch. The mark directly in the middle of the inch denotes a measurment of 1/2" whilst the markings either side of it represent measurements of 1/4" and 3/4" respectively.
