Flexible measuring tapes facilitate the measuring of irregular outlines and diverse shapes. These tapes are made from cloth, plastic-coated fabric, or thin metal which enable them to bend unlike stiff tapes. Thus, tailoring, upholstery, and interior design professionals who need to measure around body shapes, curves, furniture profiles find the flexible measuring tapes invaluable. Despite the versatility outlined above, flexible measuring tapes retain accuracy alongside markings in both metric and imperial units. Their compact design enables coiling for storage and provides the adaptable solution for measurements that require flexibility.
