Everyday clear Scotch tape
The two prominent Scotch Brand tapes for everyday use are available in green and red tartan, or plaid, packaging. The difference between the two is the coating on the front side of their hot-melt adhesive backing. Green plaid Scotch Magic tape has a frosted coating, so you can write on its surface in pen and highlighter without smudging or smearing the ink. Red-plaid clear tape has a glossy surface that is invisible when applied.
While both are types of transparent tape and have the same applications, such as mending tears, mounting documents and photos, and sealing gifts, the red-plaid transparent tape is also available as Scotch Brand Book Tape, for repairing, reinforcing, or protecting the spines, covers, and pages of books and other bound paper documents. Red-plaid tape is also available with Super-Hold adhesive, 50 percent stronger than the regular clear red-plaid tape, ideal for sealing small confidential packages, mending more severe paper or material damage, or mounting lightweight arts and crafts.
Both green and red clear Scotch tape come in individual rolls or with integrated dispensers while also fitting several standard desktop tape dispensers. Everyday clear tape is available with either 1- or 3-inch cores, containing tape from 12 to 72 feet long. The tape is available in three primary widths, including 0.5, 0.7, and 1 inch, each available in several bulk packages to fit any budget.
Packing, shipping, moving, and storage tape
One of the key product groups of the entire family of tape consists of adhesives for sealing and securing packages, boxes, and containers that businesses need to ship, move, or store. Proprietary Scotch tape includes several tape products for each phase of this process, including Scotch Heavy Duty Shipping Packaging tape and Long Lasting Storage Packaging tape. Each comes with an integrated dispenser that accepts additional rolls as necessary. Heavy Duty tape ensures that packages can withstand the on- and off-loading rigors of the shipping process. Long Lasting tape has an ultraviolet ray- and temperature-resistant adhesive ideal for long-term storage, along with a 2.4-mil thickness to provide a solid barrier against moisture and dirt penetration. Both types of tape are acid free so they won’t break down the packaging material.
Scotch also makes other tape for specific packing, shipping, moving, and storage applications. They include:
- Commercial Grade tape, providing an industrial-strength sealant, adhesive, and barrier against temperature and moisture extremes
- Sure Start tape, which unwinds from the dispenser without splintering or splitting so it always works, even between infrequent uses
- Tear by Hand tape, which means you don’t need scissors or dispensers to seal packages or boxes, so it’s ideal for packaging many containers in a rush
- Greener Packing tape, made from recycled materials, so it’s both budget- and eco-friendly
- Tough Grip tape, providing an ultra-secure sealant for boxes subject to rough handling and bumpy rides
- Acrylic packing tape, which adheres to surfaces besides corrugated boxes, ideal for packing items in plastic, thin fiberboard, or laminated containers
- Hot-Melt packing tape, with a 3.5-mil thickness for ultimate moisture and abrasion resistance, ideal for long-term storage or frequent moves
- Strapping tape, reinforced to provide high-tensile strength and the right amount of tension for banding heavy-duty pallet shipments
Like every day Magic and transparent tape, these different packing, shipping, moving, and storage tape products are available in several lengths, up to 54 yards, in 1.88- and 2-inch widths.
Other specialty tapes in addition to Scotch Magic tape
Besides the green and red tartan packaging of Scotch Brand transparent and Magic tape, products are available in both blue- and yellow-plaid containers, also with their own dispensers. The blue tartan package contains Removable tape, an invisible tape with a hand-writeable matte finish that you can stick and restick to paper, ideal for design layouts in fashion, architecture, or engineering. The yellow-plaid packaging contains Double-Sided tape for both business and home use, whether for project work or arts and crafts applications. Other double-sided tape is also available from Scotch, including heavy-duty mounting tape for securing carpet edges to floors or lightweight art pieces to walls.
In addition, Scotch tape also includes Artist Tape for Curves, with plenty of flexibility for shaping hard lines for painting, drawing, or etching on existing artwork, without leaving behind any adhesive residue. Other specialty products from Scotch include Label Protection tape, a transparent adhesive in 4 x 6 inch sheets or 4-inch-wide rolls for safeguarding handwritten or printed address labels from the elements while still keeping the addresses visible during the postal process.
Scotch Brand tape for hands-on work tasks
One of the universal products for ad hoc repairs and fastening is duct tape. Scotch makes several colors of duct tape, including transparent, so you can make fixes on material and items without making the repairs an eyesore. Scotch also manufacturers several lines of electrical tape, including vinyl color-coding wire tape in standard red, white, black, and yellow, but also in blue, violet, and brown for complicated wiring sets. The electrical tape also includes super-vinyl tape, moisture-resistant to inhibit corrosion of conductors, and glass-cloth tape for Class B insulation. All electrical tape is 7-mil thick for superior protection from the elements and temperature extremes.
Scotch also makes a variety of masking tape, both general-purpose and painter’s grade tape for keeping paint lines sharp and crisp, and filament tape that’s strong enough for securing temporary construction repairs and joinery before final renovation tasks.
