From the manufacturer
True Zero End Hook
The end hook of the tapes also can move independently by up to the thickness of the hook. This means when measuring up to an object the hook moves in to compensate for the thickness of the hook allowing it to remain accurate.
Tylon Coating
The Tylon coated blades are up to 1.5 times more resistant to abrasion than normal standard lacquered blades, giving improved longer tool life.
3 Rivet Hook
By using 3 rivets rather than 2 this makes the end hook 40% stronger and so makes the overall tape more durable.
Class II Accuracy
The STANLEY Tylon tapes comply with European class II standards. This means the maximum permissible tolerance over 3 metres is less than a millimetre.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 June 2020I have had numerous tapes over the years, some of which have lasted a long time but my last tape came to an end when I extended it out to its full 7.5 metres and broke the spring. This extends out to a full 5 metres without the spring breaking and you get a clear warning notice to stop. The spring is very good not too powerful or too soft so you have to push it back in, it works very smoothly. The lock is also good in that it is locked with a definite click and does not slip loose. The markings are clear very easy to read in both imperial and metric measurements. It is the right size for me as I do not require any bigger making it easy to carry around and it clips easily but firmly to my jeans pocket. All-round excellent tape measure at a very good price, the best I have used.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 November 2023I am an occupational therapist, and I need a good, reliable measuring tape. After trying another well reviewed brand on here, I had to send that one back and order this one. The other one absolutely would not lock in place, so it was a nonstarter. I did buy the same brand but the shorter smaller lighter weight one, but that one is a thinner tape, not as stiff to hold its shape when trying to measure some thing longer, and it’s harder for my aging eyes to read the numbers LOL. This one is the perfect one for me and it’s not that heavy for me to include in my bag it when I go on home visits.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 January 2012Always used my dad's Stanley tape measure when I was growing up, and never found another brand with quite as good quality. This isn't the exact same model I grew up using, but that one's looking a bit tatty now for being dropped quite so many times, so I thought this rubber-wrapped model might get an even better lifespan (even if the old one hasn't quite given up yet!) Obviously I've only just had this tape, so there's not much I can say about reliability over time, but giving it a good look over, it's everything you'd expect at first glance; it's tough-feeling, really chunky. Definitely looks tough enough to live in the tool box/ get dropped off a few ladders. The tape's a good standard width (18mm I think it said on the pack). It also said on the packaging that the tape is coated with what is essentially a thin layer of tough plastic film, intended to prevent the printed numbers getting scraped off too soon. Not sure if this was on the old Stanley tape, but it's nice to know they've intended it for long-term use. The printing is good quality, large font so it's easy enough to read in low light/ at arm's length. Until I try it out for a while, I won't know for sure how it'll last, but the tough, good-quality feel of it inspires confidence, and that on top of the Stanley brand would have me happily betting that I'll be using this tape for a good many years.

Bobby B.Reviewed in Germany on 20 July 2017
5.0 out of 5 stars Eines der Besten dieser Preisklasse. Fast perfekt.
Ich wollte ein Bandmaß mit m/Zoll Einteilung, da ich mir die lästige Umrechnerei sparen wollte.
Mehr oder weniger zufällig stieß ich auf das Stanley 30-696. Mein Werkzeugfritze hatte zwar nur die metrische Variante im Angebot, gab mir aber den Hinweis, daß es auch diese mm/inch-Ausführung gibt.
Der Anbieter "Aparoli" hat(te) diese für 4,00 EUR zzgl. Porto im Angebot, was auch dann noch ein sehr guter Preis ist.
Anders als auf dem Bild trägt das gelieferte Bandmaß schon den neuen Aufdruck mit dem moderneren Stanley-Schriftzug.
Das Bandmaß kommt aus Thailand und ist wirklich sehr gut verarbeitet. Nicht zu vergleichen mit dem üblichen Fernost/China-Bullmist und auch besser als manches günstige(re) Stabila-Bandmaß - 'tschuldigung Jungs, aber ihr habt echt nachgelassen.
Das Gehäuse wirkt sehr hochwertig und liegt gut in der Hand. Die Gummiteile sind angespritzt und somit unverlierbar mit dem Gehäuse verbunden. Sie sind zwar griffig, aber nicht so weich/klebrig, daß sie übermäßig Dreck annehmen und sich schlecht sauberhalten lassen. Auf der Rückseite befindet sich noch eine ebenfalls gut verarbeitete, stabile Metall-Gürtelklammer. Die Arretierung/Bremse des Bandes funktioniert problemlos.
Das Band selbst ist ein gelb lackiertes Stahlband mit einer matten Beschichtung, die Spiegelungen minimiert und es gut ablesbar macht. Der Haken am Band ist verschiebbar, um genaues Messen zu ermöglichen. Das Band selber ist 18mm breit, und damit genau richtig, da weder zu schmal, noch zu breit. Als "Nebeneffekt" fällt das Gehäuse auch nicht klobig aus. Die Verarbeitung macht insgesamt einen guten ersten Eindruck, ob sich der auch langfristig aufrechterhalten lässt, werde ich beizeiten berichten.
Die Einzugsfeder des Bandes ist ausreichend kräftig, aber auch nicht zu stark, somit genau richtig.
Einziges Manko ist der fehlende Rücklaufdämpfer (das hatten mein altes SOLA und BMI Bandmaß), d.h. das Band knallt beim schnellen Aufrollen satt mit dem Haken gegen das Gehäuse, das aber an dieser Stelle eine Gummiauflage hat. Daher sollte man hier halt ein wenig Acht geben. Auch ist es schade, daß der Haken nicht genauso breit ist, wie das Band. Einen Punktabzug rechtfertigt das jedoch nicht,
