DeWalt DWHT36916S tape measure is a 16 ft x 1-1/4 in measuring tool designed for tough jobsite conditions, so it supports cabinet, trim, and general woodworking layout where repeated pulls and retraction are common. The ultra-tough housing keeps the tape secure, so the body helps protect the internal spring and blade during daily use on benches, lifts, and ladders. That ultra-tough housing also allows the tape to survive drops up to 100 feet, which matters when work happens on scaffolds or elevated platforms and you want to keep measuring without downtime. A removable magnet at the hook simplifies the measurement process, since the hook can catch on metal edges for solo pulls. Because that magnet is removable, you can adapt the tape to different materials and measuring situations.
The 16 ft x 1-1/4 in blade size gives enough reach for typical room layouts, cabinet walls, and shop cuts without excessive bulk on a tool belt. Double-sided blade printing supports reading dimensions from above, below, or from either side, so layout lines can be marked quickly even when the blade must twist around obstacles. Six inches of Rip-Shield blade coating at the blade end focuses protection where the tape bends most often near the hook. That coating reduces damage in the area that rides over edges, sheet goods, and hardware during daily measuring. The contoured case design supplies a stable grip in the hand, which supports controlled retraction and steady hook placement along finished surfaces.
This tape measure aligns well with woodworking and construction tasks that fall within a 16 ft span, from cabinet carcass sizing to small room layouts. The 1-1/4 in blade width offers a readable surface when marking cuts on sheet goods, rails, and stiles. Double-sided printing lets measurements be read from either side of the blade, so it is useful when reaching into cabinet interiors or measuring around clamping setups on workbenches. The removable magnet supports work with metal fixtures, angle iron, or steel jambs by allowing the hook to grab and hold the starting point. With an ultra-tough housing that keeps the tape secure and able to survive drops up to 100 feet, the tool fits active sites where tools are handled over concrete floors, scaffolds, and lifts.
The combination of 16 ft length and 1-1/4 in blade width provides a balance between reach and control, helping maintain a straight blade when measuring across panels or along walls. Double-sided blade printing means numbers can be read without flipping the tape, which reduces repositioning when transferring measurements to workpieces. Six inches of Rip-Shield blade coating increases product life, especially where the blade flexes repeatedly near the hook, so the printed markings in that high-use zone stay visible for consistent layout over time. The ultra-tough housing guards the internal components during accidental drops up to 100 feet, which supports consistent blade performance from one job to the next. The contoured case design gives a secure grip and optimized control, allowing smoother feed and return of the blade so measurements can be taken with less blade whip and better placement along finished edges.
The DeWalt DWHT36916S tape measure is 16 ft long with a 1-1/4 in wide blade, covering typical cabinet, trim, and small room dimensions while keeping the tool compact on a belt or bench.
The ultra-tough housing keeps the tape secure and able to survive drops up to 100 feet, so the internal blade and spring stay protected during everyday jobsite handling.
The removable magnet simplifies the measurement process by letting the hook attach to metal edges, which supports one-person measurements along steel studs, frames, or fixtures.
The double-sided blade printing allows measurements to be read from any angle, helping when working inside cabinets, overhead, or around obstructions where one side of the blade is hidden.
Six inches of Rip-Shield blade coating increases product life at the tip of the blade, protecting the high-wear area near the hook that slides over material edges during constant measuring.
The contoured case design provides a secure grip and optimized control, supporting steady extension and retraction so measurements can be taken smoothly, even when wearing work gloves.
The DeWalt DWHT36916S tape measure combines a 16 ft x 1-1/4 in blade, ultra-tough housing, and double-sided printing to support everyday measuring in woodworking and construction. The removable magnet, Rip-Shield blade coating, and contoured case design work together to keep measurements clear, controlled, and repeatable across busy job schedules.
