APEX LFKPHV1312N Power Tape 12 ft Steel Clearcoat A2 0.75 Inch SAE 1.85 Inch

The LFKPHV1312N is a Power Tape, A2 blade style, steel blade, clearcoat finish, 12 ft blade length, 0.75 inch blade width, SAE, 1.85 inch overall height, 5.85 inch overall length, 3.75 inch overall width, rawhide case.

The A2 blade style is the specification separating this from the otherwise similar 12 ft tapes in this range, and blade style is a real distinction rather than a code. It governs the graduation layout — how the markings are arranged, what intervals are shown, whether stud centres are marked, and how the numbers read. Two tapes of identical length and width can read completely differently, and a tradesperson used to one layout works slowly with another.

That makes blade style worth confirming rather than assuming. It is the specification most likely to generate a return on a tape that is otherwise correct.

The 0.75 inch blade gives useful standout for a 12 ft tape — width drives stiffness, which drives how far the blade projects unsupported.

Note the 1.85 inch overall height against 1.2 inch on the A4 version. This is a taller case, which usually means a different spring and reel arrangement.

Clearcoat protects printed graduations. It is lighter and less expensive than a clad blade and it wears faster under abrasion.

Applications include carpentry, cabinetry, assembly, and general trades.

Users include carpenters, joiners, and finish trades.
