Where to buy the stronger version - industrial ?

I use this tape for years and lately the adhesive force has changed. I see that I am not the only one noticing this. The solution would be to irder industrial type of the same product. How do I do this? Thanks

Transparent tape — box refillls

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use a lot of tape for my mail-order business. Even though I've tried several brands to save a few pennies, I have stopped using anything but Scotch. First, it comes off the roll easier and the cutter is dependable ... no more scissors needed.
Second, it has the right stick-em. It adheres as long as I need it; but when I need to remove the tape, it comes off the product easily without tearing the surface.

Have been using this tape at work to cover our labels. New version is thinner and does not stick as well. Bring back the industrial strenght or offer it as a seperate order number.

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your Rating and Review of the Scotch® Transparent Tape. In 2013, we began to ship a new version of Scotch® Transparent Tape on a 3 inch core. This change was made to minimize the confusion between our product sold in consumer retailers and the product sold through Industrial Distributors. The tape construction for both these tapes has historically been the same, using a UPVC backing. However, the construction for Consumer 1 inch core tapes is made from a different film, so the product line was inconsistent in appearance and functionality. Additionally, the intended applications for each of these products vary greatly, with the Industrial product being heavily used in electronics and garment applications and the Consumer products for use in general home and office settings. The Industrial version is still available for purchase through some standard retailer's without the paperboard box in bulk form. Please watch for a direct reply from us so that we may stay in touch with you. Thank you.

Where to buy the old, heavier tape

Hi, as some of the other reviewers, I am disappointed in the thinner version and would like to know how and where to buy the "old" tape, even if not in cardboard boxes, but to fit on a standard tape core. Thank you.

Please bring back the old (better) tape

We have used the Scotch transparent tape for many years to attach book jackets to books, here at our regional public library. It has worked wonderfully until we opened the first roll from our recent reorder. The tape is thinner, not as sticky, and more difficult to tear off of the tape dispenser.
The added effort to tear the tape off of the dispenser is going to slow down our overall rate of book processing, but what we are most concerned about is the possibility of our book jackets coming untaped because of the reduced adhesive power of the changed tape. Our books are used heavily, and we need sturdy, sticky tape to keep the covers on them.
Please let me know where I can purchase the industrial version of your transparent tape, because we are not confident that this newer version will hold up to the normal wear and tear of library use.
Thank you.

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your Rating and Review of the Scotch(R) Transparent Tape. In October, 2013 we will begin shipping a new version of Scotch® Transparent Tape on a 3 inch core. This change is being made to minimize the confusion between our product sold in consumer retailers and the product sold through Industrial Distributors. The tape construction for both these tapes has historically been the same, using a UPVC backing. However, the construction for Consumer 1 inch core tapes is made from a different film so the product line was inconsistent in appearance and functionality. Additionally, the intended applications for each of these products vary greatly with the Industrial product being heavily used in electronics and garment applications and the Consumer products use is typically in general home and office use. This has caused a number of issues in the marketplace and with this change it will now create consistency in the Consumer 600 Transparent Tape construction utilizing one film only.
The Industrial version is still available for purchase through some standard retailer's without the paperboard box in bulk form. For more information on this change and Where To Buy information on the Industrial version, please contact us directly at 1-800-328-6276 and reference Case ID# 5515251. We are available Monday through Friday from 8:00 - 4:30 CT. Please watch for a direct reply as well. Thank you for your feedback and we hope to hear from you soon!

Same as MultiTask Tape?
on January 6, 2015

I was looking at the MultiTask tape but didn't want to buy a dispenser and I noticed this red box labeled "Transparent Tape". I called in to 3M to confirm and indeed it is the same tape. They were very helpful on the phone but I wonder why they can't be named the same thing.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] THE BOX REFILLS WE LIKE BECAUSE THE WIFE HAS HER OWN DESPENSER FOR THE TAPE. IT DOESNT MOVE AROUND WHEN YOU GET A CHUNK OF IT,IT BEING SO TRANSPARENT, YOU CAN PACKEGE THINGS WITHOUT PEOPLE SEEING WERE ITS AT. PLUS I LIKE TO TRICK PEOPLE. ONE TIME I PUT SOME ACROSS THE HALLWAY, MY SON DIDNT SEE IT. I HAD IT FOREHEAD HIGH AND HE RAN RIGHT INTO IT. WE WERE LAUGHING FOR A LONG TIME ON THAT ONE, IT REALLY GOT HIM, HE STILLS TALKS AND LAUGH ABOUT IT, AND SAYSW HE WILL GET ME BACK BUT SO NOT AS GOOD.
