1 / 7Lockport Black Gaffers Tape, 3 in x 30 yd, 2-Pack
Lockport black gaffers tape is listed as a two-roll pack, with each roll described as 3 inches wide and 30 yards long. Its extra-wide format is suited to covering cable runs and marking or securing stage and production gear, while the listing claims a matte, non-reflective finish and clean removal.
At a glance
- The listed 3-inch width gives broader coverage for cable runs and larger temporary markings than narrow tape.
- The listing describes the black surface as matte and non-reflective for stage or camera settings.
- Manufacturer claims include hand-tear application and residue-free removal. Customer feedback indicates that unspooling and residue outcomes can vary.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
Listing details are inconsistent on width: the title says 3 inches, while the size field says 2.83 inches and the dimensions field says 3 inches. The stated total unit count also differs from two 30-yard rolls. Confirm the selected listing's roll dimensions and quantity before purchase. Water-resistant does not mean waterproof. The manufacturer says clean removal depends on lifting temporary tape rather than leaving it in place.
Who is it for?
A good fit for
- Stage, film and photography crews seeking wide black tape for cable coverage or temporary marks.
- Users organizing or securing equipment on the listed surface types who want a non-reflective appearance.
Less suited to
- Buyers who need guaranteed residue-free removal or consistent adhesion, since customer feedback reports mixed results.
- Jobs requiring waterproof tape or a permanent mounting bond.

Customer feedback describes the tape as functional and easy to use for some, but reports are mixed on how easily it unspools, how firmly it sticks, how long it holds and whether it leaves residue. Those differences matter for cable runs or temporary marks where clean removal and dependable hold are priorities. The generally favorable aggregate rating is not a guarantee of consistent results for a particular surface or use.
Positive themes
- Some customers say it works well and is easy to use.
Negative themes
- Some customers report difficult unspooling, tape peeling within a day or glue residue after removal.
Mixed feedback
- Customers disagree about adhesive strength, durability, residue removal and value for money.
Frequently asked questions
How wide is this tape?
The title and dimensions list 3 inches, but another size field lists 2.83 inches. Check the selected listing for the intended width.
Is it waterproof?
The listing calls it water-resistant, not waterproof. Its manufacturer guidance says wet or soaked surfaces can shorten hold.
Does it remove without residue?
The manufacturer claims residue-free removal when used as temporary tape and lifted for removal. Customer feedback is mixed, with some reporting residue.
What is included?
The product is presented as a 2-pack. The listing describes each roll as 30 yards, but its total unit-count detail does not align clearly with that configuration.
