Marine Oil Gauging Tape – Steel White Metric 20m

This marine oil gauging tape, also known as an ullage tape or sounding tape, is an essential tool for measuring the depth of oil, water, or other liquids in ship tanks and compartments. Made from durable steel with a white metric scale, the tape is housed in a sturdy frame with a handle for easy carrying and operation. The tape is equipped with a chrome-plated brass plumb bob for accurate soundings.

To use, apply water-finding paste or oil-finding paste to the plumb bob and the lower end of the tape. Lower the tape vertically into the tank until it contacts the bottom. The depth of liquid is determined by the change in color of the paste. This 20-meter tape is suitable for use in fuel oil tanks, ballast tanks, and other shipboard applications.
