Stanley LeverLock STHT30817S 25 Foot High Visibility Orange Self Locking Tape Measure

The Stanley LeverLock STHT30817S 25-Foot Tape Measure operates as a self-locking mechanical pocket layout rule engineered to measure subfloors, verify framing spans, and layout drywall panels. Featuring an automatic LeverLock push-release braking mechanism, a polymer-coated high-tensile alloy steel blade with fractional markings, and a high-visibility clear orange ABS plastic chassis wrapped in a rubber overmold, this measuring tape holds its position automatically upon extension. Outfitted with a self-adjusting Tru-Zero end hook, a non-marring base, and a steel belt clip, this 25-foot rule delivers precise inside and outside edge calculations during framing, carpentry, and facility maintenance applications.

Best Used For:

  • Subfloor & Framing Layouts: Measuring wall plates, floor joist spans, and subfloor runs with hands-free automatic blade locking.
  • Drywall & Sheathing Panel Scribing: Scribing drywall sheets, OSB sheathing, and plywood panels while keeping the non-marring base flat against finished surfaces.
  • Overhead Conduit & Utility Maintenance: Taking vertical ceiling measurements and tracking conduit spacing without the blade creeping backward.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • Automatic LeverLock Mechanism: Self-locking mechanical core anchors the steel blade automatically upon extension and releases smoothly via the bottom squeeze plate.
  • High-Visibility Clear Orange Shell: High-impact ABS plastic chassis with vibrant orange finish ensures rapid identification in dim work areas and crowded tool chests.
  • Full-Length Polymer Protective Film: Clear hard coating shields fractional graphics from jobsite abrasion, friction, and glare under direct sunlight or industrial lighting.
  • Self-Adjusting Tru-Zero End Hook: Riveted end hook slides dynamically to compensate for hook blade thickness during internal and external edge measurements.
  • Protective Non-Marring Base Plate: Flat bottom profile prevents scratching or scuffing on delicate, polished, or finished workpiece surfaces.
  • Shock-Absorbing Rubber Buffer Shell: Outer rubber overmold cushions internal recoil mechanics against drop impacts onto concrete decks.

What's Included

  • (1) Stanley STHT30817S 25-Foot High-Visibility LeverLock Tape Measure
  • (1) Pre-Installed Heavy-Duty Steel Spring Belt Clip

Pro-Tip: To extend the blade smoothly past 15 feet on long subfloor measurements with your Stanley STHT30817S, keep your arm level with the tape's trajectory. Supporting the high-tensile alloy blade parallel to the floor prevents premature buckle snaps and reduces friction on the internal LeverLock auto-brake core.
