Categories: Tools

At CCL, we know your job is made easier when you have the right products. That’s why we’re selective about the items we sell in our retail store, and committed to sourcing only the highest-quality and best value.  

 

If you’re in the market for tape, G-Tape™ is a brand we can get behind. Nichigo G-Tape™ products feature a combination of patented acrylic adhesive with an advanced woven cloth substrate, resulting in a high-quality, safe, and residue free product built for ultimate performance.

Why G-Tape™?

Clean Removal

G-Tape™ can be removed without leaving a residue behind, even after extended exposure to sunlight. It’s also repositionable and releases from face/face contact with no loss of adhesion.

Built for Outdoor Use

G-Tape™ can withstand extreme environments and temperatures ranging from -20° to +200° F, making it a great option for outdoor uses, such as joist protection for decks. 

Safe

G-Tape™ is low in volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which can have short- and long-term adverse health effects. 

Ultra Long Lasting Bond

G-Tape’s™ bond is extremely long lasting. In two tests lasting 20 years, G-Tape withstood in high temperature and high UV exposure environments. 

Lightweight and Hand Tearable

G-Tape™ is lighter weight than Butyl or Asphalt Flashings. It’s also hand tearable for faster installation. As a result of its advanced woven cloth substrate, it also won’t create rough, sharp edges regardless of how it’s torn.

Meets AAMA Performance Requirements

G-Tape™ has the highest AAMA rating of 7-11-13 Level 3 Type A.

Pro Tip: G-Tape™ is a P.S.A. tape (pressure sensitive adhesive). For optimal adhesion, you must apply pressure.
