The FatMax 25 ft. Auto Lock Tape Measure has a blade that automatically locks at the length to which it is extended and includes an oversized detachable framing hook that easily grabs studs. Depressing the button converts the tool to manual mode, enabling it to become a traditional retractable tape. The auto-locking feature allows users to control tape retraction, which helps to prolong blade life and reduces the risk of injury. At 1-1/4 in. W, the tape is easy to read and features an 11 ft. standout to simplify single-person usage. A Blade Armor coating protects the blade from tears, kinks and rips for lasting durability.

AutoLock is not reliable, and there is not way that I can see to lock it manually.

It was time to replace my old Fatmax tape. The blade and locking mechanism works really smoothly.

The tape strength is still not optimal. Will not hold straight after 5’ extended.

The hook makes a world of difference

I have tried most of the popular tapes and this one is by far my favorite and the best in my opinion.
Sofia Sanford (verified owner) –
Above and beyond great. My tape measure is on my side all day long even after work I sometimes catch myself going into the movie theater and it’s still on that’s how often I use my tape measure. This is one of the best tape measures I’ve ever had

Was initially pretty disappointed with this tape – the “auto lock” feature was worse then useless, as the tape always creeps backwards when extended more then a couple of feet, and always if held vertically. There is no manual way to lock it, other then putting your thumb on the tape.I did find a fix for this issue – remove the 3 screws holding the case together, and put a shim piece (I used small piece of a plastic credit card) behind the steel leaf spring that pushes the plastic wedge into the reel, in order to increase the locking force. Seems to work great now after this simple fix, no more tape creep. Seems like a poor design or poor quality control though – shouldn’t have to do this on brand new tape in order to get it to work as designed.Also worth noting – this thing feels pretty heavy!

I like it because you could read the numbers but it doesn’t hold up with it getting it wet
