You should purchase special gaffer tape if you're going to be subjected to extreme stress or if you want to stick something to fabric. Suitable gaffer tape can also be purchased for these cases.
Buy Gaffa Tape – the right product for every demand
Depending on the concept, stage managers require different types of gaffer tape: In some places, the gaffer tape should blend in with the backdrop or floor. In other cases, however, the gaffer tape must be conspicuously visible for safety reasons. The right gaffer tape for every application can be found in the Rabenring online shop. A selection of different surfaces, colors, and textures offers the right solution for every need.
When using gaffer tape for gluing, do not touch the adhesive side with your hands beforehand. The surface to be applied must be dust-free for the gaffer tape to adhere properly. Gaffer tape adheres better to rough surfaces if it is pressed down firmly for a while while applying it.
You can choose from gaffer tape from England and Gerband, which is made in Germany. The product range also includes high-quality Advance Tapes.
What is gaffer tape?
Gaffer tape is a fabric adhesive tape. It is high-quality, has very high tear resistance, and offers excellent adhesion. If the tape is not in use for a long time, it can be easily removed, leaving any adhesive residue behind. Unlike the widely used duct tape, gaffer tape is made of fabric. Duct tape, on the other hand, is made of either vinyl or other plastics. The adhesive used in gaffer tape is also more heat-resistant and does not damage the surface when removed.
Gaffer tape can be used in a variety of ways: from securing cables using black gaffer tape (so that they are more difficult to see on the mostly black stage surface), to red marking gaffer tape (to mark positions where artists should stand), to gaffer tape with matte surfaces to avoid unwanted light reflections (for example in film and television).

Gaffer tape is a sturdy and strong adhesive tape made of fiber-reinforced plastic. Gaffer tape's special feature is that it can be torn by hand and can usually be removed without leaving any residue. It has become established in stage work, where it is used to secure cables and for other quick jobs.
It is mainly produced in black, white, and silver, with black being the standard color used most often on stage flooring. We offer various standard tapes in our shop, as well as gaffer tape for special applications.
