Double Sided Cloth Carpet Tape
Tape Electric manufactures double sided cloth carpet tape for temporary indoor flooring, event carpet fixing, and rough surface bonding. The tape uses cloth backing or a fabric carrier with hot melt or rubber adhesive on both sides, giving fast initial tack, controlled holding power, and practical hand tearability during short setup work. It is made for booth carpet edges, aisle runners, and temporary floor coverings where edge lifting, floor coating condition, and residue checks should be confirmed before full installation.

- Adhesive: hot melt or rubber adhesive
- Color: white, yellow, or natural cloth tone
- Size: 50 mm x 25 m, custom width available
- Liner: white or yellow silicone release paper
- Use: temporary flooring and event carpet fixing
Product Features
Product Overview
Double sided cloth carpet tape is made for temporary carpet holding where thin film tape may feel too light, stretch too easily, or fail to contact textured surfaces well. As a cloth backed carpet tape, it has more body during pulling, pressing, repositioning, and hand tearing. This helps installers place short strips under carpet edges, booth flooring, event mats, and fabric-backed floor coverings.
The adhesive system can be selected by surface contact and removal needs. Hot melt adhesive is useful when fast grab is the priority. Rubber adhesive helps wet out on carpet backing, sealed concrete, wood panels, and uneven subfloors. In typical factory sample observation, 280 um – 350 um cloth-backed constructions showed steadier edge holding than thin film tape during short strip fixing.
Total thickness can be adjusted within a typical factory range of 180 um – 400 um. A lighter structure is easier to tear and remove, while a heavier adhesive coating improves contact on rougher flooring. For vinyl flooring, painted wood, coated panels, or sensitive exhibition surfaces, test a small trial strip first.
Benefits
- Cloth backing improves tensile strength during pulling, pressing, and carpet edge fixing.
- Fast initial tack helps installers position carpet rolls, mats, and aisle runners quickly.
- Holding power helps reduce edge lifting during short-term foot traffic.
- Hand tearable structure allows short fixing pieces without cutting tools.
- Rough surface bonding supports contact on carpet backing, sealed concrete, and wood panels.
- Roll width, backing weight, adhesive coating, and liner release can be adjusted.
How Does Cloth Backing Improve Temporary Flooring Installation?
Cloth backing gives double sided cloth tape for carpet a stable feel during fast temporary flooring work. When the tape is pulled across a carpet edge or torn into shorter strips, the fabric carrier structure helps it stay flat instead of curling or stretching too much. This structure supports tensile strength, with typical reference values of 60 – 100 N/25 mm depending on cloth construction. Initial tack helps quick placement, while holding power helps limit shifting and edge lifting.

Applications
- Event carpet fixing tape for booth flooring and aisle runners
- Temporary flooring tape for exhibition halls, conference areas, and stages
- Short-term carpet edge holding during setup and dismantling
- Floor covering installation on clean sealed concrete or wood panels
- Rough surface bonding on carpet backing and textured subfloors
- Temporary positioning of mats and fabric-backed floor materials
What Should Be Checked Before Bonding to Rough or Sensitive Floors?
Before applying the tape to rough concrete, painted wood, vinyl flooring, coated panels, or exhibition hall surfaces, check the surface carefully. Dust, moisture, loose paint, floor wax, and plasticizer migration can affect adhesion or removal behavior. Hot melt or rubber adhesive can provide fast grab on textured surfaces, but clean removal depends on dwell time, pressure, temperature, and coating stability. A small sample test helps confirm tack, holding power, edge lifting, and residue performance.
FAQ
Is this tape suitable for long-term carpet installation?
No. It is for temporary flooring and short-term event carpet installation.
Can the tape be torn by hand?
Yes. The cloth backing supports hand tearability for quick booth setup.
Will it leave residue after removal?
Residue depends on floor coating, cleanliness, pressure, temperature, and dwell time. Test sensitive floors first.
Can the width and adhesive strength be customized?
Yes. Width, backing weight, adhesive coating, liner type, and tack level can be adjusted.
