APEX LFKC2910MME590N Atlas Chrome Clad Oil Gauging Tape 33 ft Steel D6 0.5 Inch

The LFKC2910MME590N is an Atlas chrome clad oil gauging tape, chrome clad blade finish, 33 ft blade length, steel blade, D6 blade style, 0.5 inch blade width, 590GM bob cut, 1.8 inch overall height.

An oil gauging tape measures the depth of liquid in a storage tank, and the 590GM bob cut is the specification that makes it one. The tape is not sold with a generic weight on the end — it is cut to accept a specific gauging bob, and the pairing has to be correct because the reading depends on where the tape's zero sits relative to the bob's graduations.

The measurement is worth understanding. The tape and bob are lowered until the bob touches the tank bottom, and the tape is read at the liquid line — that is innage, the depth of product. The alternative, outage, measures from a reference point down to the liquid surface. Custody transfer, inventory reconciliation, and loss control all depend on those numbers being right, which is why gauging equipment is specified rather than improvised.

Chrome clad is a hard bonded coating that resists abrasion — and it matters more here than on a construction tape, because a gauging tape is repeatedly wetted with product and wiped.

The 33 ft length suits typical storage tank depths.

Applications include petroleum storage, bulk liquid terminals, and tank inventory.

Use bonding and grounding procedures when gauging flammable liquids.
