Polyken Premium Grade Gaffers Tape (510): 1 in. x 55 yds. (Red)

Polyken 510 Premium Grade Gaffers Tape is a heavy-duty vinyl-coated tape with a waterproof, low gloss matte, non-reflective cloth backing. Applications include protecting and anchoring wiring in the photography and film industry; bookbinding; vinyl school bus seat repair; wrapping or bundling of wire, metals, and plastics; protecting and anchoring electrical wiring, and moisture and dust-proof sealing of equipment cases and film canisters. Low VOC content and contributes toward satisfying EQ Credit 4.1 (Low Emitting Materials Adhesives & Sealants) under LEED. Also referred to as Nashua 510 Gaffers Tape (Polyken and Nashua are both sub-brands of Berry Plastics). 510 is designed for exterior weather and temperature applications. Polyken 510 has the smoothest finish of any gaffers tape we carry. It also has a softer adhesive than most other gaffers tapes so it adheres better to carpets. Also please note that Polyken 510 comes to our converter in log roll format (that is why non-standard widths can be offered) and because of that rolls will ship on non-branded plain white cores (see the alternative images for this product to view photos of the conversion process) unless ordering the special sizes noted with 'shrink-wrapped/branded' in the title. Please see Polyken 510-Neon for this same tape offered in the 4 standard fluorescent neon colors: fluorescent green, orange, pink and yellow.
