Now, in everyone’s impression, do you think that cloth-based tape and PVC tape are the same tape? In fact, these two categories are basically two different types of tapes. So which one is better? In fact, there is no so-called one that is better. There are only two tapes that are more suitable for use. Because their uses, performance and prices are different. Next, we will explain this issue from the following aspects.

Cloth tape is an adhesive tape made with a cloth backing to make it durable and flexible. The tape is useful for various purposes such as bandages, sealing walls, electrical and plumbing tasks and more.
Cloth tapes are easily available in specialty and hardware stores. While most cloth tapes come with adhesives,

pressure-sensitive cloth tapes are also available which are used for special purposes without leaving a trace of any glue residue while holding the things together.

PVC tape is a flexible polyvinyl chloride film coated with a specially formulated adhesive that provides excellent adhesion.

It is typically used to create air-tight seals on PVC fitting covers or seal overlapping joints of PVC jacketing

1. In terms of use, they are different. Cloth-based tape is mainly used for carpets and has strong adhesion, while PVC tape is used to bond floors on the one hand and power lines on the other. Although the first two are similar, there are still differences. Because carpets and floors are fundamentally different. Carpets are used temporarily for two or three days while floors are used for a long time.

2. In terms of performance, cloth-based tape has strong adhesion, while PVC tape is not that high. A cloth tape is easier to tear. On the other hand, a feature of PVC tape is that it can play the insulating characteristics of electrical tape. These properties determine their different uses.

3. In terms of price, the cost of cloth-based tape is higher than that of PVC tape. Well, because its production cost is relatively high. Therefore, the price is different. The price of cloth-based tape is about 4 yuan per roll, while the price of electrical tape is just over 1 yuan per roll. The price of PVC, such as warning tape, is just over 3 yuan. The specific cost-effectiveness remains to be seen.

4. In terms of use, cloth-based tape is suitable for a relatively short use time. Normally, it can be torn off without residual glue after three days, while the use time of PVC can be relatively longer. However, it is not recommended to use PVC tape as a non-residue tape. Because there are many types of glue used in PVC tape at present, and the types are relatively rich.

In short, the question of which one is better, cloth-based tape or PVC tape, depends on the specific aspects of the user’s use. Because more users use tape to solve different needs. Therefore, we recommend that users use tape money, test it first, and then buy it after it can be used.
