The Stanley Story
The Stanley Works, originally a bolt and door hardware manufacturing company located in New Britain, Connecticut; was founded in 1843 by Frederick T. Stanley. A few years later, in 1857, Frederick’s cousin, Henry Stanley, founded The Stanley Rule and Level Company. In 1920, The Rule and Level Company merged with The Stanley Works and would go on to become it’s famous Hand Tools Division. Over the years, The Stanley Works has produced some of the most innovative and useful tools ever made. Among these tools are the Bailey Plane, the Surform shaper, the PowerLock tape rule and most recently the FatMax line of products. Today, more than ever, Stanley continues to be an industry leader in tool innovation. In 2001, Stanley introduced more than 100 new products, bringing to 400 the number of new products introduced in the past four years. As a direct result of Stanley’s commitment to excellence, Stanley was awarded the Prestigious Golden Hammer Award, presented for New Product Innovation in both 2000 and 2001.

Customer Reviews

This tape rule is working out great. It is easy to unroll and wind back up. I just purchased this last month and so far have only used it to measure my son's shot put and discus practice throws. The tape seems to be very strong as a couple of times the shot actually hit the tape driving it down into the turf with no damage noted. Excellent product!!!

Does what it says!
So far, so great! This tape has helped me measure various areas of the yard for landscaping purposes, documentation, etc. I've gotten the thing filthy with water and mud, and you can literally wind it up, wash it off, and hang it up.

The bright yellow color makes it easy to spot, and the markings are easy to see as well from a standing position. The hooks on the end of the tape make it a cinch to use with one person (so you don't need someone else holding it). I love it, and the price is great!
