Description The DeWalt DHT536915 TOUGHSERIES™ Tape Measure 5m/16ft is a heavy-duty, dual-scale tape designed for demanding professional use on site and in the workshop. Offering extended reach up to 16ft without assistance, it allows you to take longer measurements single-handedly, reducing the need for a second person. With a 32mm wide blade, ultra-tough housing, magnetic hook and double-sided blade print, this tape measure is built for durability, convenience and accuracy on real jobsites. Reach and performance Engineered for high stand-out performance, the DeWalt DHT536915 can extend up to 16ft unsupported, making it ideal for measuring across rooms, openings, ceilings and framing members when working alone. The wide 32mm blade provides excellent rigidity and visibility over distance, helping to minimise blade sag and kinking. Dual metric (5m) and imperial (16ft) markings support flexible working across mixed-dimension drawings and specifications. Magnetic hook and double-sided blade A strong magnet on the end hook allows easy attachment to metal surfaces such as steel studs, ducting, radiators, pipework and fixings. This provides a stable reference point and helps to keep the blade in place for more accurate, hands-free measurements where possible. The double-sided blade print means measurements can be read from above or below, which is particularly useful for overhead, vertical or awkward angle measurements where a standard single-sided blade is hard to see. Ultra-tough housing Part of the TOUGHSERIES™ range, this tape measure is housed in an ultra-tough case designed to withstand drops, knocks and harsh site conditions. The rugged body protects the internal mechanism and blade from impact and contamination, extending tool life in demanding environments. This toughness makes it well suited to construction sites, fit-out projects, workshops and maintenance roles where tools must endure daily hard use. Accuracy and reliability The DeWalt DHT536915 TOUGHSERIES™ Tape Measure 5m/16ft is rated to EC Class II accuracy, offering a high level of precision suitable for most professional measuring tasks. This ensures reliable results for framing, layout, fixings, joinery and general construction work, helping you maintain consistent quality and alignment on site. Applications and use cases This TOUGHSERIES™ tape measure is ideal for framing, setting out partitions, positioning services, measuring runs for flooring, checking window and door openings, establishing ceiling heights and general layout work. The combined metric/imperial scale makes it particularly useful on projects where both systems are in use, while the extended stand-out and magnetic hook support efficient one-person measuring.
