Gill Fiberglass Measuring Tape; 50'/15M; Closed Reel

Gill's Fiberglass Measuring Tape gives track & field programs a dependable, long-life measuring solution for the throwing events and any layout task where cloth tapes fall short. The vinyl-coated fiberglass construction delivers high tensile strength and stays flexible in the field, so the tape won't kink, break, or lose its calibration even if it's twisted or stepped on during a busy meet.

Key features & specs:

• Vinyl-coated fiberglass blade with high tensile strength for years of reliable service
• More flexible and far more durable than traditional cloth tapes — resists kinking and breaking
• Dual English and Metric scales printed on the blade for fast reads in either unit
• Zero line located right at the end of the ring for accurate, repeatable measurements
• Closed-reel 50' (15m) format shown here; also available in open-reel 100' (30m), 165' (50m), 200' (60m), 300' (90m) and 330' (100m) lengths
• Officially approved for high school competition use

Coach's tip: Keep one tape dedicated to the throws sector so the zero ring stays clean and true. Care: Wipe the blade down after muddy or wet meets and let it air-dry fully before reeling it back in to prevent grit buildup inside the case.
