Ti-Tape Titanium Tape Measures The Ti-Tape is simply the smallest titanium tape measure in the world. Slightly larger than a US Quarter, it is the perfect tape measure for everyday carry. The Ti-Tape was designed to be as small and lightweight as possible, making it almost invisible on a keychain or tucked away in your pocket. The titanium housing will ensure it will last virtually forever, far superior to those cheap plastic or heavy steel tape measures. And what happens if your measuring tape gets worn or bent? Not a problem! The user-replaceable design allows you to change it out so you can start with a fresh tape that is ready for action!

The contrast is striking, and this also offers a means to help hide scratches that may occur during hard use over time.Blue Raspberry Anodize: This appropriately named color changes from purples to blues depending upon the reflectivity of ambient light. The titanium surface is electrically anodized, and is very easy to clean with a simple wipe with any detergent based cleaner.Splash Anodize: This anodized color combination of teal and magenta is created by a masking agent being "splashed" onto the surface prior to anodizing, then removed and anodized again in a different color. The result is a fun, unique finish that is sure to turn heads. Ti-Tape SPECIAL EDITION Titanium Tape Measures Special Edition models are identical to the standard Ti-Tape except for the finish. Both outer disc surfaces have been laser engraved with a Damascus steel pattern, providing one of the most amazing appearances you can imagine. During the engraving process, the laser speed is set to achieve a specific temperature in order to simulate a heat based anodizing process, resulting in a distinct set of 4 different colors to choose from: Royal Blue, Dark Purple, White Frost, and Black. Due to engraving times that vary between several minutes to over 20 minutes, each color is priced accordingly. This laser-based heat anodizing process is permanent, the color will not change over time. The engraved surfaces are very easy to clean with a simple wipe with any detergent based cleaner. Ti-Tape EXCLUSIVE EDITION Titanium Tape Measures Exclusive Edition models are also identical to the standard Ti-Tape except for the finish. Both of the outer disc surfaces have been laser engraved with custom design patterns, creating a look that is sure to catch everyone's attention. Similar to the Special Edition models above, the laser speed is set to achieve a specific temperature in order to simulate a heat based anodizing process, resulting in a distinct set of unique patterns to choose from: US Flag, Blue Camo, or PCB (Printed Circuit Board). This laser-based heat anodizing process is permanent, the color will not change over time. If the engraved surfaces get dull from finger oils over time, they can be cleaned with any detergent based cleaner.
