Not sure how this is supposed to be slick. It's seems bottom of the list on 3M site as economy grade. Lowes for example have similar 700 series but for some reason the temp range is better (14F-194F) for $2.38 https://www.lowes.com/pd/Scotch-7...lsrc=aw.ds

Home depot has similar but marked as 1700 series (probably same stuff but different number so competition can't match) for same $2.38 or roll of 5 for $7.98 https://www.homedepot.com/p/3M-Te.../310698785
The best so far is super 33+ and 88 IMO but yes they will cost more. For cheap bulk price sometimes Amazon basic one is on good deal as well.
Personal rule of thumb that has never failed me, glossy black electrical tape = good, matte black electrical tape = shit.
Super 33 or 88 or nothing for me.. good stretch and does well in the cold, definitely worth the premium especially if you use it regularly

.
The 3M site [3m.com] that has many varieties of electrical tapes for various applications does not list them by economy. The 3M Templex line is what HD sells, but there are many that are similar and defined in their specifications.

Many would agree that for normal residential electrical work using 3M products, the 88 is the best because it has a bit more fire retardant, then the 33 and then something like this 700 that for $2 delivered to your door, is a decent deal. Just know that when removing this, it will leave more residue behind. Actually, in some ways that matter, the electrical tape from Harbor Freight compares in quality to this 700, Lowes 1700 and Home Depot's Templex line.

Personally, I like the 3M silicone tapes that are waterproof and not just water resistant, more heat resistant, wide temperature usage, etc., but they are pricey.

Lol 3M brand is always shiny compared to the competition LMAO. I bought the "matte" colored ones and they're not as sticky. So he's kinda got a point.

Models from that Black Tape Runway model show, probably ain't complaining lol

Worth the extra dollar because the cheap brand just fall off after a month or two which seems dangerous, sometime won't even stick to themselves

But apparently it's been $2 since December 2021


it had a coupon last year:

April 22, 2021
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001AXD0EY
Scotch Vinyl Electrical Tape, 3/4-in by 66-ft
Item(s) Subtotal: $1.99
Your Coupon Savings: -$0.34
Total before tax: $1.65

FWIW, I was looking for white electrical tape and found this:

ULine [uline.com]

I've been pretty happy with it. If you're willing to buy in bulk, you aren't going to get a much better deal.

Do you know if storing the electrical tap in a closed plastic bag will preserve the adhesiveness for a few years? I dont use that many but its cheaper if buying more than one lol

There's a reason the Farmer's Almanac is in its 200+ th year of publication, folk knowledge (or what the kids call 'crowd sourcing') is a pretty good source. If you didnt know, now you know
