XFasten Woodworking Tape

Sticks well and seems to last well in a cool dry place.

Use it to fix items to my CNC to machine. Leaves no residue

quite thick, easy to apply and remove but not necessarily good for fine work and can pull the face off MDF templates

I wasn't sure this would work as an alternative to 'painters blue tape and super glue' to hold down work pieces for CNC machining wood. I find that tape/glue can lift at the corners sometimes, but this tape seems to be better in this respect. Its also very much easier to use than the tape/glue method. The only issue is if the CNC bit comes into contact with this tape it really messes up the bit requiring you to clean thoroughly with a solvent. But apart from that this stuff is so much quicker to hold a piece down. I have no failures or pieces move whether small or large so far.

Only useful for temporary hold . So OK for Jigs etc, but even a very light load over a long time peels it off

Not to good for holding a tight edge on plywood

The tape is wrapped 3 times and is hard to open. So far it’s been easy to use and the sand paper is adhering to the sanding block. I do recommend the product.

I probably use this different than most people. an old chicken Farmers trick was to wrap double back sticky tape around your roosting bars to protect against lice, mites, etc. from being able to get to your birds when they roost at night, any bugs, etc. would get stuck on the tape. This is my second roll and is been awesome. Very sticky perfect for want I Needed..

Decent price works as it should

I use this for taping down CNC projects. It's the best. This vendor delivered with no issues.

Pros: + Easy to apply + Backing Film removes easily + Holds workpiece firmly + Comes off relatively easy + Leaves NO sticky residue on workpiece Cons: - Not the easiest to cut - Very gummy, will gum-up your bit I broke an 1/8” bit that gummed-up after cutting into the tape. I really like the tape, it works great for work holding. Just don’t cut into it with your cutting bit.
