Duck Tape Original Black, 50mm x 10m. The original high strength waterproof gaffer and duct adhesive cloth repair tape

Overall Impression:I purchased the Duck Tape Original Black (50mm x 25m) for several minor household repairs, and it has absolutely lived up to its reputation. It’s a classic, high-quality tape that belongs in every toolbox.What I liked:Strength & Durability: The tape is incredibly strong thanks to its reinforced cloth backing. Despite its toughness, it’s surprisingly easy to tear by hand, which is a lifesaver when you don't have scissors nearby.Adhesion: It sticks to almost any surface. I used it to secure a loose carpet edge and fix a plastic storage bin – it holds firmly without peeling at the corners.WaterproofFinish: The outer surface is properly water-resistant. I used a small strip for a temporary fix on a garden hose, and it handled the moisture perfectly.Value forMoney: At 25 metres, this roll lasts a long time. The black finish looks neat and discreet on dark surfaces.My Tip:For the best results, make sure to wipe the surface clean before applying. If the surface is free of dust and grease, this tape will stay put for a very long time!Verdict:A fantastic balance of price and performance. Highly recommended for anyone needing a quick, reliable fix. I will definitely be restocking this when I run out.

Used duck tape for many years and was surprised to read quiet a few negative reviews as I'd always found it great in both professional use and home use.Gladly not disappointed with this latest roll either.I agree the tape is a little thinner than my last roll (3yrs old - was the big one), but it's retained it's strength, fabrics and materials improve over years and I'd say this is as strong as the old stuff.Still need to start the tear off, usually with a small bite on an edge, then t tears nicely in a straight line.It's really sticky, you have to work duct tape out to use it properly, keep it straight for as long as possible, because if it twists on itself and sticks togther, invariably you'll need a new peice (one of the manin moans in other reveiws - you need to use this stuff properly).I was enclosing some polyfoam to stop i being rubbed and getting damaged, so was applying to a surface that doesn't readily like sticky tapes, but it stuck really well asn as I did a double loop its vreated a great protective covering. I did the each loop in 3 sections, about 30cms long, long enough to keep straight, guide into the box and to the polyfoam separater without catching the strip on the sides, fixing on end on a corner, then using both hands to keep it tight and guide it onto ther separater in straight lines.Using this stuff needs a bit of patience, not to be rushed, as it will catch you out if you let it. Ths is the same for most good duct tapes, because once they've stuck, they're stuck..

I have used this tape a few times before and although I think it isn't the best it isn't far off and it is good for what is is and at the price.What I like about it :1) It sticks to almost sticks to anything2) It is a lot cheaper than other tapes3) It is durable and does not come 'unstuck' even after a long period in use4) Unlike most other tapes it hand tears quite easily. so no knives or scissors neededI think a lot of the negative reviews are because, like any tape you need to apply it to a clean, dust free surface, no tape will stick to dirty surfaces.There are lots of similar tapes on the market these day and some are big names too and my experience has been "no one tape is ideal for everything" and because of that I keep 2 or 3 different makes of tapes handy but the others I would also only give 4 stars to as well as there are pros and cons for them all.I always try this tape first, because it is the cheapest and if it fails or is unsuccessful for some reason I move on to another make.The analogy I like to give is like trying to fix 2 pieces of wood together : first try glue, if that doesn't work, try nails and if that doesn't work use screws !Tape is very similar. so a good solid 4 stars for this tape.

This is not real duck tape it is barely sticky at all. Real duck tape is difficult to even get some off the roll, the glue is supposed to be thick and when you stick the glue sides together you normally cannot pull it apart. I touched the glue side with clean hands and then it had no stick left.This has got to be counter fit or if this is the real company you deserve to go bankrupt because £16 for 2 rolls of useless tape is not ok, I trusted a well known brand.I have Sellotape that is stronger then this.

Very handy - good strong tape

This black duct tape is really great. It’s strong, sticks well and feels durable for all sorts of jobs around the house.It tears easily when needed but still holds firmly once applied. The black colour looks neat and blends in well where needed.Very useful to have on hand and good quality overall. Would definitely buy again.

Very disappointed with quality of this tape. Difficult to start roll off, then it string tears before you're ready. Not the Duck Tape I use to use. Poor quality. If this is the original brand id go back to the drawing board and address the quality of the product.

Its the best

Ruban adhésif d'excellente qualité. Super isolant. Je recommande vivement ;-)

muy buena calidad la cinta americana

Tutto ok.

Habe das Tape dazu benutzt ein Kabel zu umwickeln und um etwas an ein Metallpedal zu kleben. Bei beiden kam es an mehreren Stellen dazu, dass sich das Tape gelöst hast. Habe es beim Kabel dann nochmal festgedrückt, aber auch da gab es mehrere Stellen, bei denen es sich wieder gelöst hat.

Cheaper for more...
