Extreme Packaging Tape for Heavy Shipments

Scotch 8959 Extreme Application packaging tape is built for heavyweight boxes and overseas or export shipments. Its polypropylene backing is reinforced with bi-directional continuous glass yarn across length and width. The construction delivers typical tensile strengths of 150lbs per inch longitudinal and 50lbs per inch cross direction. A specially formulated rubber resin adhesive bonds strongly to metal, plastic and fiberboard.

Surface and Weight Compatibility Check

Verify that your cartons are heavyweight units requiring high tensile reinforcement before ordering. The adhesive is designed for metal, plastic and fiberboard substrates so confirm the box material matches. Ensure your dispenser or application method accepts a 1.88 inch width roll on a 3 inch core. The tape resists nicks, abrasion, moisture and scuffing for demanding transit conditions.

Ideal for Export and Heavy Carton Sealing

This tape suits shippers sealing heavy boxes for long-distance or export transport where centre seam splitting is a risk. It is not intended for lightweight parcels or general office wrapping where standard tape is sufficient. Buyers needing water-activated paper tape or a different width should look at alternative products. The long-aging formula keeps boxes closed without water activation.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and do I need a separate dispenser?

The roll is supplied on a three-inch core; a compatible hand-held or bench dispenser for that core size is sold separately.

How do I decide between the listed dimensions and other widths?

This roll measures 1.88 inches wide by 54.6 yards long; choose it when that width matches your carton flaps and the length covers your expected volume.

What does the 150 lb per inch tensile strength mean when I seal a heavy export carton?

The bi-directional glass-yarn reinforcement delivers 150 lbs per inch longitudinal and 50 lbs per inch cross-direction strength, resisting seam splits on heavy or overseas shipments.
