Description

Professional Grade Reach and Durability: The Ultimate 40-Foot Measuring Solution

The Stanley 33-740L 40 ft. FATMAX® Classic Tape Measure is the premier choice for professionals who require maximum length without sacrificing control or durability. Engineered for solo operation, this tape provides an impressive 14 feet of reach, allowing you to capture long-distance measurements across foundations or large rooms entirely on your own. The high-impact ABS case is reinforced with a non-slip rubber cushion grip, ensuring the tool survives the inevitable drops and rigors of a demanding jobsite while remaining comfortable in your hand during all-day use.

Precision is built into every inch of the FATMAX design. The 1-1/4 inch wide steel blade features large, high-contrast numbers for instant readability and standard 16-inch and 19.2-inch stud center markings to streamline your framing and layout tasks. To combat the most common point of failure, the blade is protected by BladeArmor® coating at the hook and a full-blade protective finish to resist abrasion and heavy use. With a versatile multi-catch hook that grabs from the top or bottom, the 33-740L provides the reliable accuracy that contractors and tradespeople have trusted for decades.

Key Features

  • 14 ft. Reach: Specialized blade design allows for extensive solo measurements without the tape collapsing.

  • Top-Forward Blade Lock: Ergonomically positioned lock makes securing and releasing the blade fast and easy.

Pro-Tip: To keep your 40-foot tape performing like new, avoid letting the blade "snap back" into the case at full speed. Control the retraction with your finger to prevent the hook from slamming, which protects the BladeArmor coating and maintains the tape's accuracy for years to come.
