I use this tape to seal up small, medium and large boxes for shipping lightweight product, generally. However, I have used it to send very heavy items, as well. It adheres beautifully, and holds extremely well. I ship internationally, and want to be sure that my fragile, glass items arrive safely. This is the only tape that I completlely trust. It's expensive, but the peace of mind is worth it to me. A+++

We run a restaurant, and put a lot of boxes together for to gos, catering, etc. I bought this stuff because it was promoted as "heavy-duity, super strong" and so forth. The problem is it doesn't stick to the cardboard. It may be strong, but if they left out the glue, it doesn't do anybody any good. I am returning what we ahven't used.

Comments about Scotch® Heavy-Duty Packaging Tape, Clear, 1.88" x 54.6 yds, 6 Rolls:
I think 3M had a bad batch of Heavy Duty (HD) tape. We had always used it but had to switch to Premium Performance (PP) because the HD tape wasn't sticking without a lot of effort. I called the company but they didn't seem to know about it. I returned it directly to 3M anyway reminding them of the problem. I ordered the PP online but received HD Tape instead. I returned that order calling Staples to explain the discrepancy. The online description said Premium Performance but the SKU was Heavy Duty. I appears that the PP version was being discontinued and the HD had been upgraded and fixed. Early 2011 I bought a few rolls of the HD along with some other tapes in the store to see which would now work. Turns out the newer version of Heavy Duty works again! Hopefully we can continue to count on the Heavy Duty tape again for our future needs. So far so good.
