I always use this tape when I am shipping large boxes. I cover all seams tops bottoms and corners. The box arrives in perfect condition. The tape holds fast. I use a dispenser when taping a box but cut the tape with a scissor to avoid it sticking to itself.
The filament tape was below the quality I expected. The tape would split and Would have to waste the split part tear if off and try to get full width back. Then it would split again. I ended up going back and buying a name brand (not Staples) filament tape to finish my Christmas box packaging. I was disappointed!
