Scotch 7000042510 Packaging Tape 2in 55yd Clear

Product Description

The SCOTCH 7000042510 is a clear polypropylene packaging tape designed for box closing and splicing applications in shipping, warehousing, and distribution environments. At 1.9 mil thick with a rubber adhesive backing, it delivers a firm, reliable bond on corrugated cartons and similar substrates. The tape measures 2 inches wide and 55 yards per roll, providing substantial coverage per unit. With a tensile strength of 44 lb/in, it holds up under normal handling and stacking loads without splitting or lifting at the edges. This is a workhorse tape used by shipping departments, fulfillment centers, and maintenance crews alike.

This tape is suited for sealing standard and heavy-duty corrugated boxes in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings. Common applications include box closing on outbound shipments and splicing operations on packaging lines. The clear film backing allows labels and printed markings on cartons to remain visible after sealing. It applies cleanly by hand or with a standard tape dispenser, making it practical for both high-volume packaging stations and occasional use.

Installation Notes

Apply to clean, dry carton surfaces free of dust, oil, or moisture for best adhesion. For high-volume applications, use a dispenser sized for 2-inch tape to reduce hand fatigue and improve seal consistency. Avoid applying in extreme cold without allowing the tape and substrate to reach room temperature first, as adhesive performance may be reduced. Store rolls away from direct heat and sunlight to maintain adhesive integrity.
