Unreferenced date December 2009 Drafting Tape , also known as the second most useful tape in the world Citation needed date July 2009 , is similar to duct tape in that is has a wide variety of uses, but differs in several key areas. Drafting tape is not nearly as strong as duct tape or Gaffer Tape it will break with minimal effort, and is not waterproof. Drafting tape is easily removable, even from delicate surfaces like paper. It does not leave a sticky residue when it is removed. This is the main reason engineers and architects use this kind of tape in their blueprint s. Drafting tape is also relatively low odour compared to other types of tape. Its odour is similar to electricaltape , but less rubbery and more papery. Many people find the odour pleasant, or at the very least, unobtrusive. Drafting tape is nearly identical to masking tape and painters tape , the main difference is width. Painters tape is the widest, averaging about 2 inches approx. 6.4 cm , while masking tape and drafting tape are less than half that width. While the obvious use of drafting tape is for drawing, drafting tape can also be used for label ing and hanging posters. Its neutral cream coloring goes well with many other colors, and it can be written on easily with any felt tipped marker. In addition, drafting tape costs less than conventional labels, and its low cost also makes it more forgiving of errors.

Refimprove date August 2008 Friction tape is a type of adhesive tape made from cloth impregnated with a rubber based adhesive and is mainly used to increase grip or friction. Because the adhesive is impregnated in the cloth, friction tape is sticky on both sides. The rubber based adhesive makes it an electricalElectrical insulation insulator and provides a degree of protection from liquids and corrosion . In the past, friction tape was widely used by electricians, ref citebook title Basic Electricity Rate Training Manual author United States Bureau of Naval Personnel, Bureau of Naval Personnel publisher Courier Dover Publications year 1970 ISBN 0486209733 ref but PVC electricaltape has replaced it in most applications today. The frictional properties of the tape come from the cloth material which is often made from cotton . One common use is to wrap it around the blade of a hockey stick to improve hockey puck puck control. Another use is to wrap it around the handle of a softball or baseball bat to give one a better grip. It s also useful as a base when wrapping a bicycle handlebar with handlebar tape.

Unreferenced date November 2008 A fish tape also known as a draw wire or draw tape is a tool used by electrician s to route new wiring through walls and electrical conduit . Made of a narrow band of spring steel , by careful manipulation, the tape can be guided through confined spaces such as wall cavities. The goal is to push toward an area where guide string has been dropped inside the confined space and to pull it through, so the guide string can then be used to pull through various types of wiring, such as phone wire, network cables or speaker wire. Fish tape is designed to pull through guide string only. Using it to directly pull the target wire can damage or warp the fish tape. Design Fish tapes are usually stored coiled on a plastic reel. Because of this, they have a natural curvature and it is this curvature that allows them to be guided. By manipulating the reel, the end of the tape can be directed slightly. The tape is rigid enough that it can then be pushed in the direction in which it is pointing. In this way it can be easily guided through an empty wall cavity. Thermal insulation , firestop s, pipe material pipe s, Duct HVAC HVAC duct s, electrical conduit s, and other obstructions make use of a fish tape more challenging. The tape can be made from many different materials including steel , fiberglass , and nylon . The tape usually has a special end ranging from a hook or loop to a specialized fastener device to allow the user to attach the tape to the cable before pulling. Double use Occasionally, two fish tapes are used from opposite ends of the wall. Because they each have a hooked end, one fish tape is capable of catching the other, and the one tape can then be pulled back, carrying the second tape out with it. Electricians sometimes attach a Battery electricity battery and a doorbell or buzzer to two fish tapes so that when the ends of the tapes make contact within the wall, the bell rings.
