Product Information

Full details

This guide is for individuals and businesses needing reliable, easy-to-use packaging tape. The key benefit is its strong adhesion and convenient tearability for sealing parcels and cartons. A potential caveat is that its 40-micron thickness may not be suitable for extremely heavy or fragile items requiring heavy-duty tape. This pack includes three large rolls of clear, polypropylene tape, designed for efficient packaging and general use.

FAQs

What are the dimensions of each roll?

Each roll measures 48mm in width and 66m in length.

Is this tape suitable for all types of boxes?

It is suitable for standard packaging needs and most types of cardboard boxes. For extremely heavy or fragile items, a heavy-duty tape might be more appropriate.

Can this tape be used on painted surfaces?

While it adheres to wood and plastic, prolonged application on painted surfaces might potentially leave residue upon removal, depending on the paint type and condition.

How many rolls are included in the pack?

The pack contains three rolls of Office Clear Tape.

What is the thickness of the tape?

The tape is made from 40-micron thick polypropylene film.

Can I write on this tape?

Yes, you can write on the tape with most pens or markers, but results may vary depending on the marker type.

Is this tape waterproof?

The polypropylene material offers some resistance to moisture, but it is not fully waterproof. It's best suited for standard shipping conditions.

Troubleshooting

Tape is difficult to tear by hand

Ensure you are pulling the tape taut and at a slight downward angle. The easy-tear feature works best when the tape is under tension.

Tape is not sticking properly

Make sure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Press down firmly on the tape after application to ensure good adhesion.

Tape tears unevenly or shreds

This can sometimes occur if the tape is old or has been stored in poor conditions. Try a fresh roll, ensuring consistent tension during application.

Dispenser not cutting tape cleanly

Check if the cutting edge on the dispenser is dull or damaged. Clean any tape residue from the blade. If damaged, replace the dispenser or its blade.

  • Strong adhesion suitable for standard packaging needs.
  • Clear appearance maintains package aesthetics and readability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This tape does not require any special setup. It can be used directly from the roll for manual application. For dispenser use, simply load the roll onto a compatible tape dispenser, ensuring the adhesive side faces outwards and the tape feeds smoothly.

Compatibility: The tape is compatible with a wide range of surfaces including Metal, Wood, Glass, and Plastic. Its primary recommended use is for Packaging.

Care: Store the tape rolls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain adhesive quality. Keep the adhesive surface clean and free from dust or debris before application for optimal adhesion.
