Style

We love a good everyday carry essential and this tiny measuring tape is no exception. Made from either copper or brass, this durable, micro-sized marvel is about the size of a US quarter and includes a removable stainless steel keychain so you can keep it with you at all times.

The 3' spring-loaded steel tape features high-contrast black-on-white markings in both imperial and metric units. It is self-retracting, so there's no need to press a button or do any winding.

Specifications

Use

This tape measure comes with a keychain attachment clip and split ring which provides the ability to attach it to a key ring or other similar item. If you wish to install it onto the tape measure, the process is extremely simple.

Using the included Torx wrench, carefully remove the screw from the tape measure housing.

NOTE: Insert the wrench straight into the screw socket and press down firmly before rotating. This will prevent stripping the screw socket.
Lift off the cover, taking care not to disturb the measuring tape.
Carefully place the keychain attachment clip onto the groove of the housing so that the top surface is flush with the top of the housing.
Replace the cover and screw.

Care

Although copper and brass are highly corrosion resistant, they do develop a patina over time. We love a bit of patina on an everyday carry item like this one, however if you don't, there are many over the counter polishes or homemade solutions that can be used which will remove all traces of oxidation and leave a bright, polished finish.
