Cloth Gaffers Tape is designed with versatility in mind. It is primarily designed for use in the entertainment industry where light reflection is a concern. Plus, with its rubber adhesive that sticks to a variety of surfaces, it is perfect for holding cords and cables down on a stage or set. However, it also works exceptionally well in other applications where cloth duct tapes excel. The high strength, non-reflective matte finished backing is conformable, water resistant and easy to tear by hand. The backing is also UV and abrasion and conforms well to irregular surfaces. It can also withstand tough applications that might put tensile stress on the tape.
Please NOTE: Surfaces should be as clean, dust free, and dry as possible before application. While the surface of the tape is moisture resistant the adhesive is definitely not. The adhesive is pressure sensitive and heat activated. Make sure you really press it firmly into place when applying and get it as warm as possible in the room to secure the adhesive. The dryer and warmer the installations are, the better the adhesive will attach.
"Black Core" tape is Manufactured in the USA by the worlds largest tape mills who must liquidate Over Runs & Mill Ends. High speed milling machines create "over run" rolls (too large) or "mill ends" (too small) for retail sizes. Exclusive distributors now offer limited amounts of over-size and under-size rolls at a tremendous discount to the public.
Black Core explained: Manufacturer has blacked out the original printing inside their core with rubber based non-toxic ink which is totally safe and does not come off easily. However, wear work gloves or disposables if you plan on handling these rolls for an extended period.
Other uses: Lawn and Garden care, PVC and Electrical work, Home Inspections, Bundling light items, General sealing and holding, waterproofing and protecting and more!
