Are there measuring tapes that dont have loosely riveted end hooks?

These seem to have a 1/16 or so movement so different measurements can be
had if pushing or pulling on the end. Any experience here?
thanks


No, I can't imagine why you'd want one. Actually, you'd need two, one for
inside, one for outside measuring. Think about how it functions and you
will see thee is a reason for it.
