Built for Professional Long-Distance Measuring

The LBM 1000 is designed for situations where a conventional pocket tape measure simply does not provide enough reach. Its open reel design and long steel blade make it suitable for measuring across construction sites, external areas, landscaped areas and larger workspaces.

The robust PC/ABS Y-frame is designed to withstand the knocks and impacts associated with professional use, while the ergonomic handle makes the tape comfortable to carry and operate.

Durable Steel Measuring Blade

The STABILA LBM 1000 uses a 13mm wide steel blade with a clear metric scale. The blade features STABILA NYLON-WRAP protection to help resist corrosion and abrasion during regular use.

With EC Class II accuracy, the LBM 1000 provides the accuracy expected from a professional measuring tape while offering considerably more reach than a standard pocket tape.

UNIVERSAL SPIKES HOOK

The UNIVERSAL SPIKES HOOK provides multiple ways to secure the end of the tape when taking a measurement. The hook features STABILA SPIKES coating to help reduce slipping, while the integrated eyelet and large plastic ring with nail notch provide additional anchoring options.

This is particularly useful when measuring long distances where the end of the tape needs to remain securely positioned.

Shatter-Proof Y-Frame

The LBM 1000 features a durable shatter-proof PC/ABS Y-frame designed for demanding professional environments. The open reel construction protects the tape while keeping it easy to operate and rewind after use.

Left or Right-Handed Operation

The crank can be switched from one side of the frame to the other, allowing the LBM 1000 to be configured for left or right-handed operation. This makes the tape more comfortable to use for different operators and measuring positions.

Typical Applications

  • Construction site measurements
  • Groundworks and setting out
  • Landscaping projects
  • External measurements
  • Site preparation
  • Measuring larger areas
  • Building and trade applications
  • Long-distance setting out
