Tape Measures:

Tape measures are easily damaged.  This makes a set time frame for recertification unreliable for accurate measuring.   Checking your tape measures with a Lixer Tape measure Calibration Tool will increase the likelihood of finding damaged tape measures.   It can also be assumed that if the End Hook has not been damaged then the rest of the tape measure will be in sync with the certificate of calibration provided with your tape measure.

Our recommendation would be to check your tape measures daily or weekly, or when ever critical measurements are made.  These checks should be recorded in a log such as the Tape Measure Inspection Log provided with your tape measure. This log could be provided to your auditor for "Best Practice" compliance. Tape measures that are damaged or worn should be replaced.  A one year cycle would be typical for this type of tool.

Replacement of Tape Measures that become worn or damaged is recommended over recertification

Recertification of Tape Measures is NIST Traceable.

Cost for Recertification of Tape Measures is 75% of the listed price for the tape measure.  Please check for your tape measure model under the Standard or Metric Tape Measures.
