Duck Brand Standard Packaging Tape Refill, 1.88 Inch x 54.6 Yard, Clear, 1 Roll (240408)

This is listed as standard packaging tape. It is quite thin. I use it to reinforce envelopes. Not sure that I would trust it for use on boxes, especially for shipping. That being said, it does work fine on the manilla envelopes that I have used it for.

I have bought this brand before. The gorilla tape and other types were useful. I was happy when I thought I was getting a good deal on packing tape. My experience with packing tape is having a quality tape that is durable and sturdy. This item was extra large scotch tape. Actually scotch tape might have been sturdier. The tape didnt stick very well. It is not strong enough to use for packages, gifts or temporarily fixing a screen or affixing a note to the door. I am not sure what function this tape has. I was happy to have the option to return the item.

I followed agent K’s advice and used brown paper and triple twist twine as the preferred method but the post office told me it was not acceptable. Go figure. So someone recommended this stuff and it seems pretty good. Very sticky! Also you need a “tape gun” otherwise it doesn’t go well. After being freed from a giant tape tangle I went and got the gun and now I can ship boxes every day.

Its tape, it sticks, it seals boxes, what more is there to say?

Great refill tape for tape gun.

Worked good, but very thin. Needed a few layers for packing to move.

Great

It works like tape but its so thin youll probably waste most of it. I know I did.

Wow! Lots of tape at just the right number of rolls so there arent a bunch left when....

I am a big fan of Duck brand tapes. I have found the quality as good as 3M but I get a lot more product for less money. Ive been using their light duty carpet tape and heavy duty packing tape and decided to give this a try. It seems to have the same acrylic adhesive as the heavy duty tape but the plastic is thinner. Ive only used it for attaching shipping labels and small packages so far but it holds great. When you read complaints about it not sticking be mindful that some times its the box. For example, I have found that no tape will stick to a Home Depot box but tape sticks really well to Lowes boxes and USPS boxes.
