Crescent Lufkin LM1235CME-02 1-1/4" x 33' Shockforce™ G2 Magnetic Tape Measure

The Crescent Lufkin LM1235CME-02 Shockforce™ G2 1-1/4-inch by 33-foot (10-meter) magnetic tape measure delivers up to 17 feet of unassisted reach for extended distance layout, commercial framing, and industrial steel construction measuring. Forged with a wide high-tensile steel blade protected by an abrasion-resistant barrier coating plus an extra 6-inch Mylar end barrier delivering 3 times standard blade life, this heavy-duty measuring tool handles extreme jobsite conditions. Outfitted with an industrial diamond-coated magnetic end hook for 360-degree ferrous contact, dual-sided SAE and metric printed scales with an underside vertical quick-read layout, an integrated steel safety tether point, and an extreme-drop bolstered composite case, it equips commercial framing contractors, ironworkers, and pipefitters with dependable measuring precision and drop protection.

Best Used For:

  • Commercial Steel Framing and Structural Layout: Securing the powerful magnetic diamond hook onto steel studs, I-beams, and metal posts for long-span solo measuring.
  • Overhead HVAC Ducting and Conduit Installation: Utilizing the underside vertical scale and 360-degree magnetic hook to capture ceiling elevations and pipe runs effortlessly.
  • High-Elevation Construction and Ironwork: Fastening safety tool lanyards directly to the integrated steel tether eyelet to prevent accidental tool drops from scaffolding.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • 17-Foot Extended Standout: Thicker, wider 1-1/4-inch steel blade profile maintains rigid horizontal extension across long structural spans without blade sag.
  • Magnetic Diamond-Coated Hook: Combines rare-earth magnetic holding power with an industrial diamond grit coating for slip-free 360-degree gripping on metal and lumber.
  • Protective 6-Inch Mylar Barrier: Heavy-duty end shield reinforces the first 6 inches against edge tearing, snapping, and premature abrasive wear.
  • Dual-Sided SAE and Metric Markings: High-visibility oversized numerals feature fractional SAE on top and metric units with vertical scales underneath.
  • Extreme-Drop Bolstered Housing: Impact-resistant composite casing protects the internal spring and locking mechanism from extreme jobsite drops.
  • Integrated Steel Tether Anchor: Solid metal tether point provides certified fall-protection tie-off and doubles as a pivot for scribing layout arcs.
