We know people are often confused about the difference between gaffer tape and duct tape. Both gaffer and duct tape are classified as cloth tapes, meaning they have a cloth backing for enhanced durability. Moreover, they are sometimes used for the same purposes. However, they have a crucial primary difference: their adhesives. 

Gaffer tape uses a rubber-based adhesive designed to be removed mostly residue-free. It can detach from cords, flooring, or any other surface without leaving residual stickiness. Duct tape, on the other hand, usually leaves behind a gummy residue after being removed. 

Our standard grade gaffers tape is our most popular cloth gaffer tape and is ideal for most applications. It is a polyethylene-coated cloth laminated tape with a low-gloss finish film coated with a natural rubber adhesive, making it great for all-purpose use. It comes in 11 different colors so that you can pick the best design for your project. Alternatively, for a discount, you can let us choose by selecting the "Surprise Me" option, meaning:

  • You get a 10% discount by the roll and by the case
  • We will select up to 3 different colors based on our existing inventory

Cloth Gaffer Tape

Cloth gaffer tape is designed with versatility in mind. It features a low-light reflective backing ideal for flash photography and video productions. Stage performers often use it to secure microphones and cables. Using it to tape down wires makes the stage look neater and eliminates tripping hazards. You can also affix gaffer tap to walls, baseboards, and stage surfaces. And when it's removed, it won't peel off paint or damage the surface.

The high-strength backing of cloth gaffer tape is UV and abrasion-resistant and is applicable in many environments. You can buy a single roll or a case of 24 rolls. Case purchases are best suited for commercial use, while single roll purchases work better for small-scale projects. If you work in an industry that involves regular use of gaffer tape, such as set design, you can significantly save by buying in bulk.

Gaffer’sTape Colors

Black Gaffer Tape

Black Pro Gaffer Tape is the preferred tape for industry professionals securing overhead lighting, audio wires, and set and stage decor. It is also helpful for taping down artwork, framing, displays, and large graphics boards. Its dark color makes it unobtrusive, and the matte version doesn't reflect stage lights. For theater productions, you can use it to secure anything that you don't want your audience to notice.

Our Black Pro Gaffer tape is easy to unwind and hand tearable. It provides aggressive adhesive without leaving a sticky residue on indoor or outdoor surfaces. It has an anti-slip surface, so you can use it for stage markings without endangering your actors. Some people also like to apply gaffer tape to tool handles for better grip.

Fluorescent Gaffer Tape

Fluorescent gaffer tape has an extraordinary property: it glows under UV light! If you need to know the location of the tape and the equipment it's secured to, all you have to do is shine a UV light around your work area. The UV glow is also helpful during cleanup. Just turn on your UV flashlight to find every last scrap of fluorescent cloth tape.

Fluorescent gaffer tape's vibrant colors make it perfect for stage spikes and other functions where visibility is a high priority. On the other hand, fluorescent tape can also be surprisingly effective at blending into brightly colored environments. Black gaffer tape is commonly used to make equipment disappear into the background, but this doesn't work in all situations. If you're working on a set with many vibrant colors, fluorescent tape can be less intrusive.

Bookbinders sometimes use fluorescent cloth tape for seaming and edge reinforcement. It has a printable surface, making it suitable as a canister tape for identifying different film types.

Gaffer tape is a high-quality vinyl-impregnated cloth with a non-reflective matte finish. Both practical and artistic, we've heard of a number of ways this tape is used for events, projects, safety, and identification. Get creative with brightly colored gaffer tape, and feel free to mix and match colors and quantities!
