Several asked about thickness ("mil") - is it "thin" ?? tape can tear just dispensing it, or "thick" where it can't be hand torn (often called "shipping" tape). Sorry for being dense of this.

This tape cannot be torn by hand you either need to use a dispenser or have a knife because it is a tough tape. I ship every day as part of my job and it is a shipping tape quality. I would guess the mil thickness between 4 and 6 mils. Hope this is helpful.

I haven't had any problems. The tape is really sticky and has done a good job with shipping boxes. If you get a bad batch just let 3M know and they'll replace it for you I am sure.

I stood up from my chair, found a measuring tape, and took TIME out of my busy day to check this for you. It's exactly 1/16th of an inch in thickness. aka it was too big for my doorway, so i use it on my folding closet instead.Hope this helped. ;)

I'm sorry... it does not say on the package, but it is very strong and many times thicker than regular tape.

Hello, I haven't used this tape in a long time...but if I remember correctly, it can be repositioned as long as you didn't seal it hard. and I don't believe it can be torn by hand...hope this helps! TS

Redman has it right. It's tough to physically tear through the protective covering on the tape. I've used something with a straight edge after sticking the non-protective side. Then press/mark/score the protective side and you should be able to pull/tear the tape. It's worked before when I've lacked something sharp.

The tape is very weak. It will hold a piece of paper on a wall. That's about it. I use it a LOT though, for many different applications, including notes on wall, or tape a gift Visa card inside a birthday card, etc. For the application that you describe, it is worth a shot but I think success is likely 50/50 at best.

I'm sorry but I'm not sure about the answers to your questions. You may want to find the model number & contact the manufacturer. My guess is that the tape is not waterproof.

I took my first roll of this tape back to the store with the same problem. The saleswoman showed me that I simply hadn't unrolled it far enough . . . the beginning of the roll of the tape is different from the rest of the roll. They can't display it in stores with the double-stick portion exposed. Try unrolling it farther; that might solve your problem.

It does state that it's 11 ml thick. Kinda hard to tell if that's right but this tape works great for me.

They unfortunately are not labeled. But if you have tried DogiPot bags or Earth-Rated poop bags, I think they are as thick or thicker than either of those.--UPDATE: I found it: 12 micron thickness--not sure how that compares to "mil" measurements, though.

You are right, not much paper tape. But not a big issue. Roles of tape pretty cheap at office supply stores. No shortage of ink. Quality at this price off sets any mini tape issue. I have worker in an office nearly 60 years. Never saw this many features at this price before

That's a pretty small profile on 1/4 tape, but I have used 1/2 in with no problem. It saves so much time I would give ita shot, good luck.

Can't remember the mil, but I packed up an entire house with this tape and it worked VERY WELL. The best tape I've used for cardboard boxes, hands down.

I don't know, but there is a problem with this tape! The pack I ordered stuck to itself and couldn't pass thru the labeler. Amazon said to dispose of it, and they sent me a new one at no cost. The second one had the same problem. I returned it, and am awaiting a credit. I suspect these tapes are very old or were stored inappropriately. If no one can answer your ques. email DYMO and they'll advise you.

I don't know the mil but I used it for plenty of heavy boxes (home depot heavy duty boxes) when we moved. We had boxes of text books, pots/pans, tools, etc. The tape didn't budge.
