Product Description

For a premium quality, double-sided tape on a cloth carrier that can be removed cleanly from most surfaces with no leftover residue, choose Polyken 105C Multi-Purpose Double-Sided Carpet Tape. The residue-free easy removal feature makes the tape popular as a temporary flooring and carpet hold-down in exhibition and convention halls. It's the perfect answer when you need short-term special event flooring and must leave a clean surface behind.

Polyken 105C multi-purpose double-sided (AKA double-coated) carpet tape, otherwise known as a two-sided gaffers tape, will give you as much as 40 ounces per inch of peel adhesion. This powerful tape can even be used as a lint roller for picking up microscopic residue and dirt. Polyken 105C carpet tape comes on a blue film liner for added visibility when used over a large area. For the same product on an easy to use paper release liner, try Polyken 105C-P - consider this for smaller jobs.

NOTE: Before applying this double-coated tape to a surface area, first test it in a small, inconspicuous area to ensure that it can be removed as desired. This tape is designed to not leave adhesive residue behind. However, depending on certain conditions such as chemical cleaners used on the floor, length of time and the substrate's composition, it may still pull up loose debris or finish from the surface.

Product Applications

  • Hold down carpeting, especially for exhibition halls and conventions
  • General holding and mounting (signs, posters, temporary decorations, etc.)
  • Lint roller alternative - pulls up loose surface residue
  • Aircraft manufacturing
  • Construction
  • Hold plastic drop cloths in place while painting
  • Temporary holding for industrial use
  • Hold aluminum and carbon fiber to router table
  • Holds templates down to wood boards for router work
  • Keep area rugs and runners from slipping on hardwood floors
  • Re-attach inside trim of plastic window frames
  • Attach carpet treads on stairs
  • Prevent cats from scratching upholstery (won't damage cloth)
  • Holds an exercise mat securely on top of carpeting

Special Order Policies

  • Special orders are non-returnable (and non-cancelable if materials have been already ordered or cut before the cancellation request was received).
  • Special order sizes often ship direct from our supplier so will not arrive together with stocked products.

Special Order Minimums

  • Minimum requirements apply because a size may be non-stock or if special setup is required to cut rolls to your desired custom width.
  • Minimum Quantities: If a particular size has a minimum item requirement, please only order that size in multiples of that minimum (e.g. if the minimum is 12, then use multiples like 12, 24, 36, etc).

QUESTION: I have carpet floors. I have runners on top of the carpet in high traffic areas. Will this tape hold the runners to the carpet and for how long. These areas are used many times per day.
ANSWER: For runners on top of existing carpeting if want something to still remove adhesive residue-free over not-extended time frames would want something with a bit more adhesive. Two options to look at would be:

Shurtape DF-545 - see http://www.findtape.com/p739/

Polyken 100D - see http://www.findtape.com/p205/

I hope this helps. Thank you.

Not for bonding two pieces of carpet tog
Polyken 105C Multi-Purpose Double-Sided Carpet Tape
I misunderstood the name of the item, apparently I needed carpet binding tape instead. I used this product anyway...no time to get replacement, and found it worked adequately by leaving the backing in place. Removal 24 hours later was easy.

Made in the USA
hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
The cut level indicates how many grams of cutting load a glove can withstand from a sharp blade before being penetrated.
Lower gauge gloves are heavier - have thicker construction, fewer stiches knitted per inch and offer less dexterity.
Higher gauge gloves are lighter - have thinner/finer construction, more stitches knitted per inch and offer more dexterity.
Gloves offered typically runs from 7 to 18 (12 and 13 are in the middle of the scale).
