Spike tape is the go-to marking tool for theater, film, and live event crews. This narrow, vinyl-coated cloth tape tears cleanly by hand and peels away without leaving sticky residue, making it perfect for marking stage positions, blocking cues, and color-coding props and cables. Choose from dozens of solid and fluorescent colors in convenient roll and multi-pack sizes.
Spike tape is a backstage essential for theater, film, television, and live event production teams everywhere. This narrow, 1/2 inch cut of gaffer tape uses a matte, vinyl-coated cloth backing that won't reflect light on camera or under stage lighting, so it stays out of the shot while doing its job.
Built with a strong rubber adhesive, spike tape sticks firmly to floors, cases, and set pieces, then pulls away clean without leaving behind sticky residue or damaging finishes. It tears easily by hand, so stage managers and crew members can mark actor positions, prop placement, and equipment spots in seconds, no scissors required.
FindTape carries spike tape from trusted names like JVCC and Pro Tapes in an impressive range of colors, including black, white, grey, red, yellow, purple, and a full lineup of fluorescent shades like neon green, pink, orange, and yellow. Shop single rolls in 45, 50, or 55 yard lengths, or grab a multi-pack loaded with nine different colors so your crew is ready for any cue.
Beyond the stage, spike tape is popular for color-coding cables, labeling equipment, bundling wires, and marking dance floors. Durable, conformable, and made in the USA, it's a small roll that keeps big productions running smoothly.
