Questions & Answers
No it will not be attached to a tape it is intended for a bulkier tape 25 mm Thirty feet tall
Although I use a maximum of 25' fat, I am not familiar with the 35' fat. As early as I got it, it was tight, but after using it for a couple months, it fits perfectly. Therefore, I would imagine that a larger tape would fit into the pouch properly.
My guess is that it won't happen. In order to get my Milwaukee 30' to fit without having to fight with it, I had to take some time to get it in and out of its container. As a result, both products are of an extremely high quality. It is my understanding that they make larger ones for longer tapes as well.
I don't see how this would be a problem, Sir. You can expect it to be a little snug at first, but it will stretch with use and adjust to the tape after a while. It is possible to use another tape once the first one is broken in, however I find that tapes of a different size or shape never fit well once they have been broken in. This is an excellent product, and I hope it helps.

The new tape pouch I received today is great! Thank you so much for the gift. My previous leather pouch was Occidental Leather, so I chose this one to replace it. It was a bit disappointing to discover that the other one was worn out after just 40 years of daily usage! Unlike the last one, this one appears to be built just like the last one, so more than likely it will outlive I find that it fits the Fat Max 25' tape measure just fine, and it is compatible with or without the belt clip on the tape measure as well. This makes removing and reattaching the tape easier, smoother, and without snagging the clip on the pouch, which is what the pouch is for. For me, it is simpler and easier to take out and reattach the tape without the clip. Due to the brand new nature of the pouch, it fits snugly. Once it has been used for a week or two, and has been absorbed with a good amount of sweat, it will be silky smooth. In a couple of weeks I will put leather dressing on it to prevent sweat and moisture from getting into the leather and ruining it. There are many products made by Oriental. It took 40 years for the first one to break down. Using something for that long won't wear it out like something you use 5 days a week. A great deal! I'm glad I spent the money.
The holster I looked at was exactly what I needed, I had been dropping my 25ft tape measure every time I bent over, so when I saw this holster I was willing to give it a shot , and I have never looked back. I was able to slide my DeWalt tape of 25 feet into my belt clip after removing it. I would recommend this tape to anyone who uses a tape on a regular basis since the quality is excellent. I've had it for a few months now, and it has perfectly broken in, and my tape stays in place.
It is easy to move 16 into and out of it. I'm glad to have found one that fits my 25' Fat Boy tape so well. There is a lot of tape that fits very firmly, but the tape has worn in nicely, so it comes out fairly easily. I found this to be a well-made and rugged There is something convenient about the pouches where tape is kept. When I am working up on scaffolding and ladders, that is more secure and I'm less likely to fall off. My favorite part of this clip-on clip is the clip attachment. As long as I need the stuff for different kinds of jobs, I can mix and match it. Staying in place is really easy with the clip. Until I wear it out, I cannot knock it off. I highly recommend this to anyone. My next one should be here soon, actually.
Just by soaking it and shoving the 35' fat max into it I got the 25' fat max to fit with a little play and the 35' is right.
During the first week, I left it in the tool box with a 25' Fatmax tape as I normally carry a 16' tape for I have never had any issues with it falling off the belt during the work day because it clips on to the belt easily. My tape has held well in this case, and when I need to take it off, it is easy to remove. The trickiest part is remembering to place it back in the pouch and not on the edge of my back pocket.
This product works great. It clips securely to a belt and holds a 25' Stanley fatmax tape securely. As well as retrieving the tape, it is easy. It is pretty much the only way I use my tape at work as I cannot go back to hanging it EDIT
This holster is now a month old and I have used it extensively over the last few months. The tape breaks in and now there are a few 25' tapes loose inside. With any leather product that breaks in, it will loosen up, and she'll never complain about it.
We would like to give this company a shout out. I have no complaints about this tape holder. It fits well and securely on 35' tape. Wide enough belt clip to fit work belt and of good quality in terms of My 25-year-old holder was replaced with this one, and I'm very happy with it.
It sits snugly without sagging. The fat max Stanley 35 footer would not fit because even with soaking it would be too big. Great for what I needed, but not as great as I wanted.
