This 4-pack of 1" x 55 yd roll of gray Gaffer Tape from Savage is a staple of any movie set or studio, and although called an expendable, it's an absolute essential. The tape has a cloth backing and polyethylene coating that's heat-resistant to 175° Fahrenheit for up to three hours. The combination of blended resin and natural rubber compound allows for strong adherence with no residue upon removal. Among its many uses are safely taping down cable on the floor, securing seamless paper rolls, and creating foam core constructions or any kind of temporary mounting in graphic arts.
