FAQ

Q1: What is the advantage of a 0.14mm blade compared to standard 0.11mm blades?

A: A 0.14mm high-carbon steel blade is 40% thicker than conventional 0.11mm blades. This thickness greatly enhances horizontal standout rigidity, preventing the tape from kinking or buckling when measuring long spans solo.

Q2: How durable is the imported ink scale under heavy friction?

A: Our imported ink printing delivers over three times the wear resistance of ordinary printed tapes. Combined with a protective clear coat, the markings resist friction from mud, sand, and sweat, remaining crisp and readable for years.

Q3: Why is high-temperature quenching important for the ruler hook?

A: Quenching hardens the hook's metal structure, preventing it from bending or deforming when accidentally dropped on hard floors, ensuring long-term true-zero measurement accuracy.

Q4: Is the ABS shell durable enough to survive jobsite drops?

A: Yes. We use 100% brand-new, high-density ABS resin rather than recycled plastic, providing superior impact resistance, crack prevention, and an ultra-compact ergonomic shape.

Q5: What is the MOQ and lead time for custom OEM orders?

A: The standard MOQ for custom branded packaging and housing colors is 2,000–3,000 pcs. The typical mass production lead time is 25–35 days upon artwork approval.
