Printholic Packing Tape 6 Rolls Heavy Duty Shipping Packaging Tape 1.88 x 54.6 Yards, 3 Core, Clear, for Moving Packaging Shipping Office Storage, Transparent Tape Refills for Dispenser

This tape doesn’t stick to anything for long. Within a few hours of putting it on, it was all peeling off the cardboard on its own.

Too thin. Too hard to find the end on the roll. Tangles easily. I was lured by the low price, but now plan to discard it for a stronger product.

smells like awful skunk spray. gave me a headache

2022-02-28. Printholic Packing Tape. I was interested in this because the title advertised Heavy Duty Shipping Packing Tape, and it was the standard size for North America tape guns at 1.88 with a 3 core. It also happens to be the sane length as North American produced rolls at 54.6 yards (~50 meters). Advertised as heavy duty, it really a relative term. In North America, heavy duty means a thickness of 2 mils (1 mil is 1 one-thousandth of an inch or 25.4 microns), whereas medium duty is 1.7 mils. Now where this tape is manufactured, the standards may be different. In comparing this with my domestically purchased heavy duty packing tape made by a Minnesota based company, its definitely thinner. Its actually more comparable to the medium duty tape made the brand that has a duck on it. In comparing apples to apples, there was little to no difference with size, length, performance, or piece price. With zero noticeable differences in performance, I see no real benefit in purchasing this in bulk just to get the same piece price as buying one roll with the duck on it. Less one for the misleading product description, less one more for having to buy bulk without getting any savings, 3 stars overall.

This tape does not work for a big move when you are packing boxes and wanting the tape to stay in place.

Too thin rips easily poor quality

Rips easily, definitely thinner than normal ones u bought at the store. But it sticks okay actually. Just much thinner.

I am familiar with a large variety of shipping/packing tape and use it daily. The Printoholic packing tape is described as heavy-duty tape. I would not consider this heavy-duty as it is thinner than heavy-duty rolls. The thickness is not listed but it does not look or feel as thick as most heavy-duty tapes which are 2-2.4 mils and are suitable for 25 pounds and over. This tape has been fine for lightweight fragile packages that have weighed 1-7 pounds. I have used more when the package has been heavier. The tape is strong smelling of glue. That doesnt bother me but if you are sensitive to smells it may be bothersome. The adhesive has held and the tape fits fine on my standard tape gun. If you are looking for commercial heavy-duty tape or moving tape, you may want to look at other options. However, for standard smaller shipments, this has been great.

Honesty, don’t waste your money !!! DOES NOT ADHERE TO BOXES !!! I have literally had to tape, retape and tape around the tape to keep it down. It’s horrible ! and on top of that, it’ll break off and split on the roll. I’ve thrown 3 rolls away because of frustration alone ! Definitely added stress on top of a very big move.

I am moving. And when packing boxes, one wants their tape to perform. This tape kept wanting to curl when rolling from the dispenser. And I was not the only one that experienced frustration when using this tape. But Costco to the rescue with its heavy duty SCOTCH brand packing tape. it worked great from the hand-held dispenser.
