ProTapes Pro Friction Rubber Gauze Adhesive Tape, 15 mil Thick, 60' Length x 3/4" Width, Black (Pack of 1)

This cloth tape with mild adhesive on both sides is perfext for wrapping pipes, walking sticks, and tool handles to enhance grip. On my alpenstock (walking staff) i wrapped about 5" of the handle, nd found that my hand did attract a black grime for the first several hikes, but worn in, now my hand stays clean and though not sticky, the tape still provides grip.Another use is on my lawn tractor front bumper (troy-bilt/MTD), the rubber end caps slipped off exposing a sharp edge shin high. A few wraps of friction tape on the metal pipe really help the end caps stay on. a few wraps of electrical tape on the outside overlapping finish the repair. Electrical tape alone did not work previously for a few sets of end caps. This friction tape solved a recurring problem.

Real friction tape like in the old days isn't easy to find anymore. I've bought numerous rolls claiming to be friction tape but that don't have the same grippyness, stickiness, and toughness that it's supposed to have. This stuff is the real deal. And it smells delicious.

well i broke the charge line for my computer and i am afraid if i use the normal tape it will lose electricity and i don't want to die so soon lol. so i bought this stuff. i know it works but it's tacky and feels like glue on the side where it should't be.

Adhesive needs to be betterFell off one day after applyingWaste of time and money

I bought this because I bought a cheapy shoe rack because my office was being filled up with shoes. However whenever a tiny bump would occur, there went all the shoes toppling over.I wanted this item since it was super cheap but it was an add-on so it sat in my cart for awhile until I bought something over 25 bucks.I just got this tape today and immediately opened the packaging(definitely has a strong odor to the tape and as I have never used "grip tape" I didnt know it would smell like that). I put it on the 2 bottom rungs of my shoe rack, put the shoes on and wah-lah!This did exactly what I wanted it to do and enhance my cheapy product to make it better!There is a lot of tape on this roll(again never buying this before, unsure if normal or not) and have a bunch left that I am sure I can find other useful needs for it

Wrapped garden tool handles for better grip

I was reading the internet on replacing the rubber bands on a shop BAN SAW and found a few guys had used this in place of the (somewhat) expensive rubber replacements. Every Ban saw belt I priced that would fit was in the $20.00 range and they really didn't have good reviews. I used this on our older model in place of the manufactured wheel band and it works like a champ!! All you have to do is clean it real good, brass or steel brush it and use some alcohol or acetone and let dry. Be sure to wrap it in the direction, with the grain, so to speak, so it won't catch when it running and gets warmed up (hope this helps). Fast shipping, no issues with these folks.

Adhesive wasn’t as sticky as expected however tape stays in place. A black residue leaches off for some time. Tape works as described, just “messy” to use.
