STIHL forestry tape measure

A forest measuring tape is necessary for
cutting tree trunks to length in the forest
and is therefore an indispensable accessory for foresters and other forestry workers. The STIHL tape measure is available
in three lengths: 15 m, 20 m or 25 m
. It has a robust metal housing and a
sturdy yet flexible metal tape
. Thanks to a practical eyelet, you can attach it to your belt or tool belt.
A
small hook on the tape measure
is characteristic of forestry tape measures. It is fixed to the front of the trunk in the wood or bark. You can either hook the tape or apply light pressure to the wood to measure the desired length and then saw it off. Then simply release the hook by giving it a little tug. As the strap has a spring, it rolls up again automatically.
In this way, one-man measurement is also possible.
The forestry measuring tape has been awarded the KWF-Profi test mark by the Kuratorium fr Waldarbeit und Forsttechnik e.V. (Board of Trustees for Forestry Work and Technology).
