A tape measure is disclosed which has a spooled measuring blade mounted via a rotatable connection within a casing ( 100 ). The tape measure has impact-protection components. These components may be resilient means ( 46, 60, 62, 82, 108 ) arranged between the spooled blade and the case, such as at the rotatable connection. Further impact-protection components are resilient pads ( 112, 114 ) which are moulded into impact-vulnerable locations on the outer surface of the case.
