Stock Security Tape
Tamper evident security tape provides a security seal for shipping cartons, pallets, wooden crates, envelopes, bags, or other containers. After application, when removed the security tape will show tamper evidence by self destructing, leaving words or symbols on the package and in the security tape itself.
- Protect your products & equipment
- Control access to shipping cartons, pallets, and other containers
- Indicates tampering or pilfering
We offer stock and custom tapes.
Choosing Your Security Tape
Sealing Disposable Packaging or Reusable Container?
When tampered, these security tapes transfer adhesive to the surface. For disposable packaging (such as shipping cartons) the amount of adhesive residue left on the surface is usually not an issue. However, if the container or surface will be re-used, cleaning up the adhesive residue will be more difficult and time consuming for tape with a high residue formula. See the "Ease of Clean Up" recommendations (see below) if the container is to be re-used.
Roll Length
Stock tapes are offered in lengths of 165, 180, and 250 feet. All roll lengths will fit a standard tape dispenser. Longer roll lengths save time because of fewer roll changes.
We also offer larger rolls for machine application -- up to 3000 feet in length. For custom tape, we can make any roll length. Please call if you have a special roll length requirement.
Multiple Security Features
As well as being tamper evident, some tapes include more security features, such as:
- Printed Serial Numbers - A unique number improves security. Record the number as needed for added security.
- Plain Tape - No obvious signs that the tape is tamper evident minimizes attention to a package during shipping.
- Printed Instructions on the tape - Printing can serve as a deterrent to tampering.
- Custom Printed Tape - Customizations improve security.
- Tape Width - Using 1 inch and 3 inch wide tapes make it easier to detect tampered cartons that are resealed with conventional 2 inch wide tape.
Maximum Compatibility
Unfortunately, one tape design is not suitable for all applications. However, we are confident that we have a security tape that meets your project requirements. We recommend testing tape samples in actual conditions before product is ordered. We offer free samples so you can test and verify the selected tape will meet your specific needs.
- Standard Sizes - We have a large selection of 2 in wide tape, the most common size used on shipping cartons.
- Perforated Tape - These security tapes are used as individual seals (or see our security labels for more options).
- Surface Compatability - Our tape works on a wide range of surfaces based on our lab tests and customer feedback.
Quantity Discounts
We offer pricing discounts for higher quantity orders. For the best value, we recommend purchasing at least 1 year's supply. When stored properly, our tapes have a minimum 2 year shelf life.
Low Minimum Order Quantities for Custom Printed Tape
Custom printed tape offers more security. We offer custom printed tape in low order quantities -- beginning at only 40 rolls (2 inch x 180 feet). For smaller custom orders of tamper evident tape (1 to 39 rolls), please see our Security Tape on a Liner.
Fast and Friendly Customer Service
If you are unsure which tape best fits your needs, please send us an email or give us a call (see the contact info at the bottom of this page).
Superior Tamper Evident Performance
Our Premium Security Tape feature superior tamper evident performance, which is designed to function within one (1) minute of application on the recommended surfaces.
Our Full Adhesive Transfer Security Tape and Economy Security Tape feature reliable tamper evidence -- usually 1 minute to 1 hour after application on the recommended surfaces.
Our SuperSaver Security Tape is the lowest price tape we offer with tamper evidence showing within 4 hours after application.
Most competitive tapes do not state their performance. If you are considering a competitive tape and performance is important, we recommend you request samples and compare before you buy.
Troubleshooting Guide
If the tamper evident feature is not working to your satisfaction, please review the Troubleshooting Guide for suggestions, or give us a call.
