Customer Reviews
Michael Anderson
I’ve been using Crescent Lufkin power tape measures on commercial construction sites for over ten years, and the consistency is what keeps me coming back. The blade markings stay readable even after heavy use, and the tape retracts smoothly without feeling weak. I’ve dropped these tapes off ladders, dragged them across concrete, and they still measure true, which gives me confidence when accuracy really matters.
Sarah Mitchell
As a civil engineering technician, I rely heavily on Lufkin long fiberglass tapes for field measurements. They hold up extremely well in wet and muddy conditions, and the graduations remain clear after repeated cleanings. Compared to other brands I’ve tried, these tapes stretch less over time, which has helped reduce rework and saved hours on site surveys.
David Thompson
I purchased a Crescent Lufkin measuring wheel for site layout and was impressed by how easy it was to assemble and calibrate. The wheel rolls smoothly over uneven ground, and the counter remains accurate even after extended use. It has become an essential tool for preliminary measurements before we bring in more advanced equipment.
