Overview
The Craftsman CMHT37225 is a 25 foot retractable tape measure with fraction markings printed directly on the blade and a rubber overmold grip, built with a self locking, cushioned retraction that eases the blade back into the case instead of letting the hook slam in.
The seller copy focuses on two things: fractions already printed on the blade so users skip doing that math themselves, and an auto locking blade that stays extended until a button is pressed, then retracts smoothly. That combination is aimed at everyday measuring rather than a specialty jobsite feature.
- 25 ft self locking tape measure
- Fraction markings printed on the blade
- Rubber overmold grip
- 4.7 rating from about 16,300 ratings
Who it's for
Fits anyone who wants inch fractions already marked on the tape and a retraction that will not let the hook snap into the case at speed. Less useful for someone who only needs a short pocket tape, since this is a full 25 foot model.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Fractions printed directly on the blade
- Self locking blade with cushioned retraction
- Rubber overmold grip
- 25 foot reach
- No stated blade width or standout distance
- No belt clip or hook style detail given
Performance notes
The locking blade stays extended until a button is pressed, then eases back into the case rather than letting the hook whip in at full speed, which the seller copy credits with less wear at the hook end over time. The 25 foot blade carries fraction markings printed directly on it, and the body uses a rubber overmold for grip.
