Klein Tools 94100RT 100-Foot Open Reel Tape Measure with Single Hook and Carabiner

The Klein Tools 94100RT 100-Foot Open Reel Tape Measure is a long-distance surveying and layout tool engineered with a 1/2-inch PVC-coated fiberglass blade to eliminate stretch under tension. Operating via a 3:1 planetary gear fast-rewind system, this 26.46 oz measuring device incorporates a dual-end attachment sharing an identical zero point between its single end hook and carabiner for layout verification across civil engineering, utility trenching, and commercial construction job sites.

Best Used For:

  • Civil Site Layout & Surveying: Taking long-distance ground measurements using the dual SAE and engineer's 1/10th-inch scale markings.
  • Solo Field Trenching & Utility Line Mapping: Anchoring the tape end in dirt or sod using the handle-stored stainless steel ground stake for single-operator measuring.
  • Commercial Structural Layout: Securing measurement points onto framing, pipe runs, or site boundary stakes using the integrated end hook or carabiner.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • PVC-Coated Fiberglass Blade: High-tensile blade construction resists stretching, abrasion, and moisture to maintain accurate linear layout readings.
  • Dual Attachment Zero-Point System: End hook and carabiner share the exact same true-zero reference point to eliminate measurement errors.
  • 3:1 Planetary Gear Drive: Internal gear mechanism provides smooth manual winding and retracts the 100-foot blade three times faster than standard cranks.
  • Handle-Stored Stainless Steel Stake: Integrated metal ground stake stores inside the frame handle for convenient single-person field anchoring.
  • Double-Sided Dual Scale Markings: Printed with standard Imperial SAE graduations on one side and specialized engineer's 1/10th-inch scale on the reverse.
  • Impact-Resistant ABS/TPR Case: Rugged open-frame housing built with non-slip thermoplastic rubber overmolding to withstand 9.35-inch frame jobsite drops.
