XFasten Double Sided Woodworking Tape 1 Inch x 180 (3-Pack) - Double Face Woodworker Turner's Tape for Wood Template, Edge Banding, Routing, Anchoring, Strong Adhesion but Removable and Residue Free

Double-sided tape is just the ticket for temporary fixturing in woodworking, say for setting a router guide strip or template, or ganging workpieces to allow cutting multiple to the same size, etc. Double-sided tape comes in quite a variety though and not all are suitable for this purpose. The key is good stick but also clean removal. The key for that is that the tape have some sort of binding layer that keeps it together during removal, and also the right adhesive. This tape gets both of those right with some sort of cloth binder in the tape that keeps it all in one piece during removal, and an adhesive that holds firmly, but removes cleanly without leaving any adhesive residue to interfere with further processing or finishing and also without pulling up any wood grain while you're at it. So far I've used this on hand-planed softwood (SPF) and it removes readily and absolutely cleanly. The hand-planing could be a factor since it produces an extremely smooth surface and leaves the grain firm. There could be variation on a rough-sawn or coarsely sanded surface like plywood, I suppose I'll find out. But so far, this tape is extremely satisfactory and leaves nothing to be desired. I would definitely do it again and recommend.

This is my 3rd time ordering Xfasten woodworking tape. It is strong and comes off without damaging the taped surfaces. It is so strong, in fact, that it’s way too easy to use too much! I recall a time when I had to use a wide putty knife to get the items apart. I damaged the parts, the tape didn’t! Anyway, it’s great for template routing and for holding holding boards, etc., together for gang cutting and sanding.

I had previously only used double sided tape for adhering acrylic templates to wood pieces. That tape is very thin had ok adhesion and was somewhat difficult to remove. After reading some of the reviews I decided to give this tape a try and it is a game changer for me! It easily holds wood and templates to my workbench and for pieces held to each other that have only been rough planed. The tape is the perfect thickness to accommodate imperfections in the surfaces and still stick. That little extra thickness also makes it much easier to remove. Unlike the other tape I've used in the past, this tape seemed to be able to be reused 3 or 4 times to adhere a pattern template to a board. Excellent product. It will be something I keep on hand all the time.

I purchased this for attaching small pieces of wood to my melamine thickness planer sled. It holds the wood firmly to the sled through the thickness planing process. However, applying it is difficult. The tape backing is too tough to tear by hand so each piece has to be cut. No dispenser comes with the tape to aid in cutting. If a knife or scissors are used, the result is sticky goo on the cutting tool. When removing wood from the planing sled, a very sharp, thin spatula as well as "elbow grease" is required. It leaves no residue on the wood or the melamine. Works great but too hard to use. Will use up and buy something else next time.

Stop putting it off. You know you need this stuff. This is the good brand. It works. It's good quality. It goes on easy, holds on while you need it to, and comes off when you need it to. Why did I wait so long?

Excellent. Works well on flat. Sideways torque can stretch it but not a normal usage.

I tried this for a woodworking project recently, and it is a solid, high quality product. Highly recommend! Holds well!

Its double sided, it sticks. But, it is thicker than i would like. It is not thin like scotch tape. It works well on cedar fence pickets with the rough finish. Using it on smooth hardwoods leaves a gap too big for detail work. My opinion only.

Woodworking should buy

Works great. Easy to apply and remove. Also holds well

Perfect for holding saw and router jigs temporarily in place. The tape holds tightly but can be easily and cleanly removed from wood and finished surfaces.

Work very well would purchase again

Parfais pour machinage du bois dans la CNC, je recommande!
