About the product
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
