New Construction Grade Measuring Tools Expand BAHCOŽ Brand Professional Product Line


Tape Rules, Long Tape and Magnetic Belt Holster Provide Comfort, Control and Durability

SCRANTON, Pa., July 27, 2003 - A new family of durable construction tape measuring products from BAHCO North America, Inc. expands the BAHCOŽ brand professional tool product line with a variety of models designed for comfortable use, maximum control and long life.

New 850000 series Construction Grade Tape Rules feature comfortable rubber grips, easy-to-read yellow tape blades with baked-on epoxy coatings to extend blade life and legibility, and hook bumpers to protect the blade hook. High-impact ABS case construction provides durability and strength in working applications and is available in either Chrome or Orange case styles. The rules also feature a triple rivet adjusting hook for more accurate measurements, a positive slide-locking brake to securely hold the blade in place for precise lengths and a convenient belt clip to keep the tape rule handy at all times. The tape rules are available in English or combination English/Metric measurements in sizes ranging from 3/4-inch by 16 feet long to 1-inch by 30 feet long.

Also new from BAHCOŽ North America, Inc. are four models of Professional Long Tape measuring tools. Housed in a durable, black lightweight aircraft aluminum case, each Professional Long Tape has a built-in Auto Rewind feature that automatically returns the tape back to the case - similar to the style of shorter length tape rules. An anti-lock brake system controls the tape's return when rewinding, and a built-in bumper protects the blade tip during the rewind process. These long tapes feature an open spool design to eliminate tape jamming, and easy-to-read stud and truss markings printed on both sides of the blade. For added convenience in use, BAHCOŽ offers a double position chrome hook for one-person measurements as well as a swivel clip for easy attachment to the user's belt or tool pouch. The tape rules are available in English or combination English/Metric measurements in sizes ranging from 3/8-inch to 50- and 100-foot lengths.

Completing the BAHCOŽ construction measuring tools line is the new 850050 Magnetic Belt Tape Holster that securely stores 16- to 35-foot-long measuring tapes. Built with impact resistant ABS plastic for maximum durability and strength, the Magnetic Belt Tape Holster features a powerful magnet contact between the holster and tape rule as well as quick release for immediate access to the measuring tape.

BAHCOŽ brand, endorsed by Snap-on Incorporated, consists of premium professional tools, accessories and equipment for electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, maintenance workers, ironworkers, as well as manufacturing and construction contractors. BAHCOŽ products are all designed and manufactured to the highest levels of quality, innovation and comfort for tool users worldwide.
