The Parts:

1. Blade

The blade is the working part of a tape measure. It’s the long tongue of metal that uncoils as you pull it out to tell you how long a distance it is from one place to another. Most of them come with both standard measurements and metrics to make them as versatile as possible. The longer the measurement you need to take, in general, the bigger the tape measure you’ll need to buy.

2. Spring and stop
The action that pulls the blade back into the case when you release the thumb lock is the spring and stop. It’s what makes it so that, on a purely mechanical tool, you don’t have to push the blade back in manually. Keep this part of the tape measure free from dust and grit, or else the tape measure’s function might be affected. You can’t normally get to these to perform maintenance, so care in use is your best guide.

3. Case

The body of the tape measure is the case. It’s the hardened outside that protects the tape measure’s guts from grit and debris and keeps the action working well. Most of them are constructed out of plastic, but models that require added durability might also be made out of metal.

4. Thumb lock

Because measurements can be tricky to take, the thumb lock is what stops the blade from sliding back in automatically when you want it to remain out. The action of pushing it down locks the blade in place, while pushing it back up lets the spring and stop spin it back in for storage.

5. Belt loop

Tape measures are pretty bulky things to carry around. They’re shaped vaguely like a square, and if you are working with any kind of length, they might be big and heavy. Getting one around might be a chore, especially if you have several tools to carry. Most tool bags have specific places for tape measures, but most tape measures have loops so you can connect them to your belt.

6. Hook

At the forward lip of the blade is a hook that allows you to slip it over the side of something you are measuring and pull it out as you go. This prevents you from having to feed it out as you go and makes it easier to measure things with relatively large distances.
