D-Tech Measuring Tape 5m x 19mm with Belt Clip

At a Glance: Versatile 5m measuring tape with a 19mm Class II steel blade, precise 1mm graduations, standard hook and convenient belt clip.

The D-Tech DTME0519 Measuring Tape is a dependable everyday measuring tool designed for accurate measuring, marking and layout work. Its 5 metre measuring range is ideal for a broad selection of household, workshop, construction, fabrication and woodworking tasks, while the 19mm-wide steel blade offers a practical balance of visibility, durability and compact storage. Clearly marked 1mm metric graduations make measurements easy to read and transfer onto a workpiece.

An integrated belt clip and built-in lanyard keep the measuring tape comfortably within reach as you move between jobs.

Pro Tips

Keep the blade straight and level with the surface being measured to reduce reading errors.
Use a sharp pencil or fine marking tool when transferring precise measurements onto a workpiece.
For longer measurements, secure the hook carefully against the starting edge or ask another person to hold it.
Allow the blade to retract in a controlled manner rather than letting it snap rapidly into the casing.
Measure from the same reference edge throughout a project to help maintain consistent results.
When measuring diagonals, compare both measurements to help check whether a frame or assembly is square.

How to Use

Inspect the casing, blade, hook and retraction mechanism before use.
Position the standard hook against the starting edge of the material or workpiece.
Pull the casing away from the starting point while extending the blade to the required distance.
Keep the blade straight, flat and aligned with the direction of measurement.
Use the manual blade control to hold or release the blade as required.
Read the measurement at the required endpoint using the 1mm metric graduations.
Mark the measurement clearly before moving the tape.
Release the blade control and guide the blade back into the casing slowly and carefully.
Store the tape in a dry location or attach it securely using the belt clip or lanyard.
