Intertape 74938 Paper Packing Tape 1.5 in 60 Yd Natural

Product Description

The INTERTAPE 74938 is a natural kraft paper packing tape built for general-purpose box closing, sealing, splicing, and tabbing applications. The tape is 1.5 inches wide and runs 60 yards per roll. Its rubber adhesive bonds firmly to corrugated and chipboard surfaces, while the paper backing provides a 7.2 mil thickness and 45 lb/in tensile strength for reliable hold under normal shipping and storage conditions. The Series 539 construction meets several federal and PSTC standards, making it a dependable choice for operations that require documented performance. Installation requires no special tools — simply load into a standard tape dispenser and apply with hand pressure.

This tape is suited for warehouse, shipping, and light industrial environments where paper-based packing tape is preferred over film-based alternatives. Common applications include sealing corrugated cartons, tabbing folded materials, and splicing rolls during packaging line operations. It is appropriate for both manual hand-application and standard bench-top tape dispensers. The natural color integrates cleanly with kraft packaging for a finished, professional appearance on outgoing shipments.
