goStaunch Strapping Tape (1.88 x 30yds, Pack of 4) Heavy Duty Packing Tape Rolls - 5.5mil Fiberglass Tape - 2X Thicker Shipping Tape - Synthetic PET Adhesive Filament Tape - Reinforced Packing Tape

This tape is very heavy duty. I used it for moving boxes and it worked so well. I love how durable it is and at the same time affordable.

I was bummed because I didnt get their special tape gun and I didnt understand how the tape material worked. I left a review as such, and got a gracious, informative note from the company. For me, customer service goes a long way, and these people get 10 stars in that department. Just know if you get the tape, be sure to get the gun that cuts it better than a traditional tape gun.

Are you struggling to find good packing tape to secure your packages in transit at a decent cost? Well search no more as this fiberglass reinforced packing tape will fit your needs. Its strong adhesive has adhered to my boxes strongly and doesnt have a tendency to peel. The fiberglass reinforcement inside also protects it from general wear and slight scratching and tearing that may happen during transit. Overall, I would trust this packing tape for all of my Ebay shipping needs especially at the value that it provides.

I use it for boxes weighing over 20 pounds and when regular packing tape is not strong enough.

This stuff is great for reinforcing boxes. There was one move when I knew I needed to load quickly and I would be tired when unloading so I packed accordingly using clothes as cushions and reinforced the boxes with strapping tape like this. I slung the boxes on the truck and stacked them when I had enough on it so I wouldnt have to keep going up and down from the truck with each box. Then, I literally threw them off the truck when at the destination to put less strain on me. Each box held up with strapping tape like this wrapped at key points around the boxes. I was able to make the transfer of our stuff from one place to another using this technique. I dont like the process of moving, by the way, so it was a little fun to just throw our stuff around. I packed it well so nothing got broken. Clothing is a cheap and very effective packing material.

Tape is really thick and holding up nicely so far. The tape fits my tape gun nicely as well!

I have been reorganizing my house and packaging away items into boxes. This take is perfect for those heavy boxes so the box doesnt collapse or break open. It also works well for shipping heavy packages so they dont break open in transit. The adhesive is really strong. Great tape!

After reading other reviews of this product I decided to give it a go. I routinely pack and ship hand crafted items as a hobby, and the items I make often have some weight to them. This packing tape simply doesn’t meet the task of keeping heavier boxes sealed and closed. Upon receiving the tape from Amazon I put it to use boxing up a few items, and each line of tape I applied to the box didn’t adhere well, at all. Sections of the tape wouldn’t stick to the cardboard, and each strip of tape could be peeled off easily and without issue. Stated simply, a box sealed with this tape isn’t secure. I fully acknowledge that my experience with this product is very atypical when reading the other reviews. Maybe I received a defective version of this tape, or maybe the applications noted in other reviews weren’t for boxes containing heavier items. Regardless, I will be going back to my standard (and more expensive) 3M clear packing tape. I was hoping to save some money with this product, but I suppose the old adage is true… You get what you pay for. Signed, Disappointed EDIT: Following my initial review, GoStauch reached out to me to discuss my experience with their tape. They agreed that my experience likely indicated a defective product, and they sent another 4-pack of their tape. Tape rolls from this second pack are performing better, but Im still reinforcing them with clear 3M packing tape to be sure the tape is secure. I bumped my rating based on the companys response alone, and I may revisit it again once I have more experience with using this tape in more packing and shipping situations.

Ive used heavy duty filament tape at the warehouse for a close to a couple of decades now, so Im very accustomed to this type of packaging. One thing that Ive learned over the past several years is that there are different thicknesses to both the clear packing tapes that we use AND the filament tapes that we use. Ive used some filament tapes that are thicker, stronger, and lay flatter without wrinkling, and Ive used thinner filament tapes that are more prone to wrinkling. This is somewhere in between, and closer to the thinner side of the spectrum in terms of how it dispenses and lays across boxes. Where Im a little confused is that the industrial filament tape that we use is 6 mil (we use to seal boxes that exceed 40 lbs.), and is noticeably thicker and flatter-laying than this tape, which is advertised as 5.5 mil. This 5.5 mil tape just seems very close to the 4 mil economy filament tape that we use (used at the warehouse to seal 20-39 lb. boxes). Id think if this is 5.5 mil vs. the 6 mil of our industrial grade, it would be closer to the industrial grade in terms of how it functions and lays across boxes, but thats not the case. Kind of perplexing to me... In any case, I didnt want to swipe a roll from work, but I could sure use a roll or two of filament tape around my house, and so this will do the job just fine. I like that it has a lead-roll indicator strip (it sounds trivial, but weve bought BOXES of tape at work that have NO ROLL-START LINE INDICATOR ON THEM -- takes forever to find where the thing starts!). Overall, I give this a 4 out of 5 and will have plenty of utility for it around the house when taping up heavy boxes and such. Bonus that I didnt have to buy a full case of it, although you are paying a premium for a single roll (if youre running through this kind of tape like water, as we do at the warehouse, look for bulk packs -- such as 4 or 6 rolls -- or entire cases which are normally 24 to 36 rolls, and the price-per-roll will be lower).

Used this to pack some boxes to send overseas and so far theyve been very great. Adheres and sticks great and dont peel off like duct tapes. Very heavy duty and durable. Great quality.
