As packing tape prices soar this budget tape is still a decent value. It is thinner than other more expensive Commercial Brand-Name tapes and can be used for heavy or big items but may need multiple layers or applications. I use it for my medium weight UPS and USPS daily packing needs and it just makes it as far as strength due to it's extreme lack of thickness. I use it because it is less-expensive and I do use a lot of clear tape. If your boxes are old or heavy this may not be the tape for you. Works great too over laser-printed mailing labels and such where a clear covering is needed for visibility. A bit touchy when using this in tape gun applicators because of it's lack of thickness.
I ran out of Scotch sealing tape bought this for just a couple of dollars more than one roll of Scotch equivalent with dispenser. It works as well as the Scotch product and the price makes it a bargain.
