Cheap gap tape.
Not as good as the more expensive tape
but works well if you assemble and
dis-assemble daily.

White (slightly off white), approximately
1 inch wide. Standard size small role.

$40 for 40 post paid in the US.

How thick is it?
How long is it?
How does it do with compound curves?
How does it do with extremes of temp? (Say, 40*F to 110*F?)

I have my own source of an "Expensive, readily available 'white' tape that conforms to compound curves in many temps", but not trying to kill any of your sales.

[PS, I think you mean "roll" not "role"]


Edit..... I meant to say, "Inexpensive", not "expensive". Sigh, such is this group, you can't edit a post once it's sent.

Some questions answered (can it do compound curves "yes" & how does it do in temp extremes "fine, don't leave it on long term"), thanks for the replies.

Still waiting on the rest of the info (roll length, thickness).

PS, I believe vontresc meant "eats" not "ears"...... LOL...... [same edit comment].
