Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use this gauging tape?
Apply water-finding or oil-finding paste to the plumb bob and the lower section of the tape. Lower the tape vertically into the tank until the bob touches the bottom. Wait a few seconds, then retrieve the tape. The paste will change color where it contacts water or oil, indicating the liquid level.
What is the difference between an oil gauging tape and a regular measuring tape?
An oil gauging tape is specifically designed for tank sounding. It is made of steel to resist corrosion and has a plumb bob to ensure vertical descent. The tape is also compatible with detection pastes for identifying liquid interfaces.
Is this tape suitable for measuring water depth?
Yes, it can be used for both oil and water tanks. Use water-finding paste for water depth and oil-finding paste for oil depth.
