Stanley Tylon tape measure

The Stanley Tylon 3m tape measure is a staple in the tool industry, known for its durable Tylon-coated blade that provides increased resistance to wear and tear. Originally founded by Frederick Stanley in New Britain, Connecticut, in 1843, the Stanley brand quickly became a global leader in hardware and hand tools. Over its long history, the company expanded through innovation and strategic mergers, most notably the 2010 merger with Black & Decker to form Stanley Black & Decker.

Today, Stanley products are manufactured across a global network of facilities, including locations in the United States, Europe, and Asia, to serve a worldwide market. As part of the Stanley Black & Decker portfolio, the brand remains a dominant force in the professional and DIY sectors, benefiting from the parent company's extensive research, development, and distribution capabilities headquartered in Maryland, USA.
