Filament Tape for Bundling,
Holding and Sealing Cartons

Filament Tape

Being in this business, we've found that filament tape is a great all around tape to have in your warehouse, garage, etc. It is reinforced with glass filaments which makes it really strong. But, while this tape is strong, it is still flexible.

Because of its strength, this tape is great for bundling more than one shipment together. This can ultimately help you save on freight. Also, due to its strong adhesive, it helps to keep your products together better than string or twine.

On the flip side, you can still use filament tape for sealing your packages. It forms a seal with minimum rub down and has good holding power.

It's nice when you can find a product that can serve a few purposes like this tape.

Rolls per Case
These tapes are usually sold in cases as follows:

TapeRolls/Case
1/2"72
3/4"48
1"36
2"24
3"16

This tape can also be purchased in handy packs of 12 rolls/case…regardless of the width. The amount of tape per roll for all widths is typically 60 yards.

Application Method
For filament tape the tool of choice is the hand held dispenser…these are inexpensive and make application very easy.

Temperature Ranges
Room temperature isn't an issue with this tape.

Available Colors and Thickness
This tape doesn't offer much variety when it comes to color choices, actually only one color...clear.

When it comes to tape strength the thicker the tape the stronger the tape. Tape thickness is measured in mils…the higher the mil measurement the stronger the tape.

Buyer Beware
When comparing the cost of tape make sure to compare apples to apples. Look at the:

• yards/roll
• rolls per case
• thickness (mils)
