Circumference Tapes – Precision Measuring Tools for Round Objects
Circumference tapes are specialized measuring tools designed to measure the circumference and diameter of round or cylindrical objects with high accuracy. Unlike standard tapes, these tools feature precision-engineered scales that convert linear distance into diameter or circumference readings—making them essential in industries where roundness and dimensional accuracy are critical.
Crafted from durable, flexible materials such as stainless steel or fiberglass-reinforced tape, circumference tapes provide long-term reliability and measurement consistency, even in harsh industrial environments.
Key Features of Circumference Tapes
Dual Scale Options
Read both circumference and diameter instantly.
High-Contrast Markings
Easy-to-read etched or printed graduations.
Flexible Yet Durable
Made from stainless steel or reinforced fiberglass.
Accurate to ±0.1 mm
Engineered for precision.
Applications of Circumference Tapes
- Piping and Tubing: Measuring external diameters of pipes and tanks
- Mechanical Engineering: Inspecting shafts, rollers, and rotors
- Manufacturing: Quality control and part verification
- Automotive Industry: Checking tire or wheel dimensions
- Forestry: Measuring tree trunks for research or logging
How to Use Circumference Tapes
- Wrap the Tape: Gently wrap the circumference tape around the object.
- Align the Zero Point: Make sure the tape lies flat and aligns correctly.
- Read the Scale: Note the reading from the specialized scale (in mm/inch or diameter units).
- Verify Measurement: Cross-check if diameter calculation is required.
- Clean & Store: After use, wipe clean and store to prevent damage or deformation.
