Surveyors Tape Measure 50m 165ft Fibreglass Open Reel

This 50m surveyor measuring tape is made for checking longer distances where a standard pocket tape is not practical. It uses a 13mm wide fibreglass blade with dual metric and imperial markings, helping you read measurements in the format that suits the job. The open reel design keeps the tape accessible during use and makes winding it back in more straightforward once the measurement is complete.

Useful for garden layout, site measuring, fencing, groundwork, property maintenance and general outdoor tasks, it gives you the reach needed for extended runs without relying on shorter tapes. It is also suitable for workshop planning, checking room lengths, setting out boundaries and spacing posts or features before work starts. For tradespeople, maintenance teams and DIY users, it is a practical choice when clear distance readings are needed over a wider area.

The fibreglass blade is paired with a high impact ABS case for regular handling, while the dynamic handle helps speed up rewind between measurements. The open reel layout also makes the tape easier to guide by hand and easier to wipe down after use in dusty or muddy conditions. Dual scale markings are useful when working from plans, notes or older measurements recorded in either system, which can save time on site and reduce the need for quick conversions. When not in use, the reel format helps keep the tape organised and ready for the next measuring job.
