MegaTape® — Double-Sided Clear Film Banner Hem Tape

Banner Hem Tape

MegaTape®

SKU: MEGATAPE-CL

“A new improved MegaTape banner hem tape with clear film and improved strength.”

MegaTape is our strongest double-sided super-strong clear film banner hem tape that creates fold-finished banner edges. Unlike single-sided PowerTape, MegaTape uses double-sided adhesive to produce a traditional folded hem — twice as strong as ordinary double-sided tape, wind-tunnel tested to 108 MPH, and virtually invisible on mesh and double-sided banners.

Why Make the Switch

MegaTape® vs. Ordinary Double-Sided Banner Tape

Feature MegaTape® Ordinary Double-Sided Banner Tape
Edge Rigidity Superior rigidity — clean, sharp folded edge Softer carrier — harder to achieve a sharp fold
Wind Rating 108 MPH wind-tested with PowerTabs Varies — no standardized wind test
System Strength Exceeds folded hem when combined with PowerTabs Strength depends on fold quality and tape type

FAQ

Common Questions

What is the difference between MegaTape® and PowerTape®?
MegaTape® is just a double-sided adhesive version of PowerTape® made with the same super-strong film.
Does MegaTape banner hem tape work on mesh banners?
MegaTape’s new clear film is ideal for mesh banners because it is less visible when folded in a mesh banner hem.
Why use MegaTape® banner hem tape instead of PowerTape®?
MegaTape is preferred when a folded edge finish is desired. Clamp the banner with slight tension and allow slight leeway when positioning the tape for best results.
How is MegaTape® different from ordinary double-sided banner hem tape?
MegaTape® is made with a super-strong film which makes it far stronger than regular banner tape. Its superior rigidity creates sharp, clean folded edges that ordinary double-sided tape cannot match.
Will MegaTape® wrinkle when the banner is rolled?
Wrinkling can occur with overly tight rolling. Roll with the print side out, no tighter than a 6″ to 12″ diameter roll.
How can MegaTape® be used on double-sided banners?
MegaTape remains hidden when applied, allowing double-sided banners with matching artwork to maintain strength while keeping the seam nearly invisible.
Can MegaTape® be used with grommets or Clear PowerTabs?
Yes. After installing MegaTape®, feel free to install grommets, or for greater strength, PowerTabs, or both for ultimate strength.

What Sign Pros Are Saying

★★★★★

“Your products were recommended to us by another sign company and holy cow, what a difference it made for our digital banners. We had creasing and wrinkling issues with our grommet method — PowerTape with PowerTabs completely solved it. The banners lay flat and look professional.”

“Banner Ups are the only product that last in the market. They are tough as nails with wind! We’re in Oklahoma — wind is not a joke here. PowerTape over PowerTabs and we’ve never had a failure. Nothing even comes close.”
