Review on Transparent Scotch Filament Tape Pack for Secure Packaging Solutions by Louis Mechtak

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Filament tape is the best choice for the nuclear industry

Masking tape: for masking, not for fixing Packing tape: sticks well to cardboard Ducktape: strong, easy to use without scissors, holds the plane together (see Mythbusters ) thread (strap); Rated Band: Really strong. glass fiber reinforced for packing a carton with engine parts. Wrapped completely around an item or box, it sticks well to itself and needs to be cut with a dispenser, scissors, or xacto-like tool. This tape is reinforced in the longitudinal direction. Some straps also have fiberglass cross strands. It's not like this. But it sticks well and cuts easily and still doesn't seem to come loose so you'll have to rip it off the pieces to get it working again. A star deduction because the base is quite thin, which reduces the strength somewhat. Another star was removed because it was not trimmed cleanly at the factory: sometimes it does not fit at the edges, so that the ribbon threads protrude on the sides.

Pros
  • Withstands harsh shipping and handling conditions
Cons
  • Crumples
