Industrial Reach and Survival-Grade Durability: Crescent Lufkin L1216CME-02 Shockforce G2 16' Tape Measure

Engineered for the high-torque demands of professional jobsites, the Crescent Lufkin Shockforce G2 redefines expectations for compact measuring tools. This second-generation powerhouse features a beefier 1-1/4" wide blade that delivers an incredible 17 feet of solo reach, allowing you to span large gaps without a helper.
