Not Ideal for Economy-Grade Tape

I ship 50 to 60 small cartons ever week and prefer tape that is THIN (like .85 MIL) but this tape is thick (about 2.5 MIL). Thinner tape with good adhesive is always better than any expensive tape marketed as Heavy Duty even name brands like Scotch model 850. Adhesive on this tape is good -- no complaints about that. But as other reviews mention this tape has a very Bad Odor. Also it is only available as 56 yard rolls and not 110 yards length so it gets used up quickly. This is NOT ideal as Economy-Grade Tape. And I doubt it is good enough to be considered Heavy Duty. I dunno what you call it but we do NOT really like it and will NOT be buying more.
This is the worst packing tape that our office has ever used. It is extremely thin rips down the middle easily (and then is impossible to restart). Is flimsy and sticks to itself easily when you are trying to pull out a piece. It smells AWFUL (more awful than other tapes). Save yourself the headache and buy a more expensive brand of tape.
