Compact Box-Sealing Dispenser

The 3M DP300-RD is a red plastic dispenser built for box-sealing tape with a 3-inch core. It suits home, office or classroom shipping tasks where quick, controlled tape application is needed. The hand brake mechanism lets the user adjust tension for smoother sealing. Tape is not included with the dispenser.

Practical Limits of the Hand-Brake System

The hand brake provides manual tension control but does not automate cutting or feeding, so the operator must still pull and tear the tape. It accepts rolls up to two inches wide on a three-inch core, limiting use to standard box-sealing widths. No blade guard or auto-cut feature is present, requiring careful handling during use.

Upgrade from Handheld Tape Guns

This dispenser replaces basic handheld tape guns that lack a brake, reducing waste from loose tape ends and uneven tension. The jump is worth it when sealing volume justifies a stationary tool that stays ready on a bench. It does not suit users who need a portable gun for moving between multiple packing stations.

Questions about this item

Which version of this dispenser should I choose for standard box-sealing tape?

The DP300-RD model is built for 3 inch core tape up to 2 inches wide, making it the correct version for standard box-sealing rolls.

What does the hand brake do when I am sealing cartons?

The hand brake lets you control tape tension with one hand so the roll does not free-spin and the tape applies smoothly.

Does the 3 inch core specification limit the tape brands I can use?

Any packaging tape wound on a 3 inch core and no wider than 2 inches will fit, regardless of brand.
