Questions and Answers for DEWALT 300 ft. Measuring Tape

A:  I just checked my tape measure it has numbers on the top fractions below them.I hope this help and answers your question.

A:  You have to see it in person. Some have the markings some do not. Same part number. Dewalt's website shows it without. Many others show it with markings.

A:  Yes, it has the numbers for the half, quarters, and eights. Only lines for the 16ths.

A:  Yes that’s why I got it

A:  It has the 1/2",1/4" & 1/8" on the bottom of the tape...see pic. It also has markings for every foot. as well as 16" on center is highlighted in red. It also as the black diamonds. The black diamonds which appear every 19 3/16” on metal tape measures are for spacing I-beam “timbers”. Several wood-product manufacturers offer I-beam “timbers” as a substitute for solid lumber floor joists. The diamond marks on our tape rule blades are for spacing these engineered floor joists in new construction. Because these beams are able to support more weight than their dimensional lumber counterpart, they often have different spacing requirements. Span tables for these beams provide ratings for spacings of 12”, 16”, 19 3/16”, and 24”. If you multiply these dimensions by 8, 6, 5, and 4, respectively, you’ll find each comes to 96”, the length of the plywood panels used for sub-flooring. builders who who use I-beams use fewer floor joists, with no loss of floor support, where codes allow.

This LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY does not cover products that are improperly used, abused, altered or repaired. Deficient products will be replaced or repaired.

A:  I put it on my pocket

A:  There is a screw that holds the belt clip in place. Take the screw out and slide the belt clip up and out of the slot that holds it in position.

A:  Lift it up

A:  There is a small Phillips screw that holds it on, it's in the center of the clip, remove that and the clip comes right off.

A:  Held on by a screw

A:  It's used to control the tape and make it easier to roll it back after use.

A:  Hello Chosen71, If I understand your question, I think you are referring to the Grade stake loop and hook, that connects to the top right side of the handle...(in this picture...) Hope this answers your question...By the way, It is a fabulous measuring tape and holds up well on site! Regards, Mark
