Product Description
Shurtape FP-96 General Purpose Kraft Packaging Tape is a general purpose brown paper tape used for packaging, binding, splicing, holding, tabbing, carton sealing, reinforcing, banding and patching for a variety of substrates. The tape features a strong, flexible and conformable backing with high cross-direction tensile strength. Shurtape FP 96 has an aggressive, high tack adhesive with excellent holding power and excellent quick stick, particularly effective in cold weather. The tape color blends well with cardboard and Kraft cartons and unlike traditional film packaging tapes, the tape can be torn by hand. Resists curling, abrasion, water, solvents and oil. It also is a good choice for "Shingling" (tape-on-tape) applications. FP 96 is a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape and does not need water to activate it like a gummed paper tape.
See JVCC FPPT-01 Kraft flatback paper tape for a tape that has a more matte (less shiny) surface than Shurtape FP-96 Kraft paper tape. Country of Origin: United States.

QUESTION: Will this tape work to stretch watercolor paper? Watercolor paper is wet, so the tape that is activated by water works best.
ANSWER: Shurtape FP-96 is not a tape activated by water. Can see Shurtape WP-100, WP-200, WP-300 or Intertape Legend for gummed (AKA water-activated) paper tapes though.

Shurtape FP-96 General Purpose Kraft Packaging Tape
I am really impressed with this versatile super strong tape. I'm using it for theatrical mask, prop and mold making, using all three widths bias-cut for laying up durable, highly contoured forms.This is my second order. FP-96 is superior to all other tapes I have tried. I'll keep buying this stuff as long as it is available.

It's fine, but costly.
Shurtape FP-96 General Purpose Kraft Packaging Tape
Our small business ships out at lease half a dozen packages per week and need a sturdy tape that is not clear and sticks well. Large rolls of this type of tape are hard to find. So we tried this brand & found that it works fine but the price is a bit high. We only ordered 3 rolls to try it out and if it works perhaps we can get a larger order with a price reduction. (?) So far so good.

This Tape is THE BEST
Shurtape FP-96 General Purpose Kraft Packaging Tape
Love this tape! You don't need a tape gun, and in a pinch, you can even do without a scissors and just tear it. But it's very strong and easy to apply -- and perhaps best of all, you can write on it, so it's great for labelling boxes for storage.

I really feel like this tape works very well for my business shipments. I will be ordering more!
hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
Lower gauge gloves are heavier - have thicker construction, fewer stiches knitted per inch and offer less dexterity.
Higher gauge gloves are lighter - have thinner/finer construction, more stitches knitted per inch and offer more dexterity.
Gloves offered typically runs from 7 to 18 (12 and 13 are in the middle of the scale).
