Paper Adhesive Tape

Paper Adhesive Tape

A versatile set of pressure sensitive adhesives

Strong. Reliable. Convenient.

The family of paper adhesive tapes — masking tapes, kraft paper tape, double coated tapes — are used to perform many critical functions throughout industrial processes. Paper backing allows for the tape to be torn by hand, making it extremely useful for many tasks.

As a specialty adhesive tape converter, Strouse slits tape to custom widths or cuts paper tape parts to custom shapes and dimensions. We provide parts in multiple formats: on rolls, sheets, or individual pieces.
