Duct Tape vs Gaffer Tape
Often times, these tapes are mistaken for being interchangeable. On the contrary, duct and gaffer’s tapes are constructed differently because they are designed for different purposes. Duct tape is constructed with a waterproof backing and contains an aggressive, natural rubber-based adhesive, which makes it a good choice for making repairs, bundling heavy materials and sealing leaks. On the other hand, gaffer’s tape has a coated cloth backing and a synthetic rubber-based adhesion system, which means it is not a good choice for waterproofing applications, but ideal for temporary jobs.
If you remember one thing about the difference between duct and gaffer’s tape,
remember this: gaffer’s tape removes cleanly, but duct tape does not. Gaffer’s tape is the best choice for the arts and entertainment industry, as it removes from carpets, cables, stages and other surfaces easily without causing damage or leaving adhesive residue.
