In short

LKJ® Cross Filament Tape is a self-adhesive tape designed for applications requiring a high breaking strength, manufactured by Lalit Jain Industries Pvt. Ltd. in Sonipat and Delhi NCR, India. The backing is a film reinforced with woven glass fibres in a cross weave, coated with a high-tack rubber-based adhesive. The reinforcement is what does the work: it makes the tape extremely strong in heavy packaging, where it can replace metal and polypropylene strapping to great advantage. Typical jobs are packing heavy weight cartons, palletising, strapping, sealing metal coils and pipe bundling, together with appliance and white-goods shipping and the packing of EV battery modules. It is also widely used for cricket bat protection. Rolls are supplied in a standard 50m length and slit from 6mm to 1000mm, with custom widths on request. Share your load and width for a quote.

What is cross filament tape and how does the reinforcement work?

Filament tape is a self-adhesive tape specially designed for applications requiring a high breaking strength. It has a film backing and a rubber adhesive, and woven glass fibres reinforce that backing. The glass fibre carries the tensile load, while the film carries the adhesive and holds the fibres in position.

In a cross weave construction the fibres run in two directions rather than one, so the tape resists pulling along its length and tearing across its width. That is the difference between a tape that holds a bundle and one that splits at the first sharp carton edge.

That reinforcement is what makes it a specialty rather than a general-purpose tape; the rest of the LKJ® specialty tapes range is organised the same way, by the job each construction is built for.

The result is a tape strong enough that in heavy packaging it can replace metal and polypropylene strapping to great advantage: no strapping machine, no sharp steel edges, and no banding tool at the point of use. If you are weighing the tape against a tensioner and a steel band, our guide on cross filament tape versus steel and PP strapping sets out honestly where each one still wins.

What jobs is filament tape used for?

The core applications are packing of heavy weight cartons, palletising, strapping, and sealing of metal coils and pipe bundling. Beyond that, LKJ® Cross Filament Tape is used for packing EV battery modules and large industrial parts, for appliance shipping and for white-goods strapping, anywhere a load has to be held together through handling rather than merely closed.

It is also widely used for cricket bat protection, where the cross weave reinforcement holds the face of the blade together under repeated impact.

On a pallet, filament tape and stretch film do two different jobs and are usually used together: the tape holds individual cartons or a stack in compression, and the film wraps the whole load into a single unit and shields it from dust and moisture. For the wrapping half of that job see LKJ® Stretch Film, and for the group range of packaging and industrial tapes see Lalit Jain Industries Pvt. Ltd.

What widths and lengths does LKJ® Cross Filament Tape come in?

The standard roll length is 50m. Widths are slit from 6mm to 1000mm, with custom widths on request, which covers narrow strapping strips through to wide reinforcing bands and converter-width rolls.

Narrow widths are the usual choice for strapping and bundling, because the strength comes from the glass fibre rather than from the area of adhesive, a narrow band of filament tape holds far more than a wide band of plain film tape. Wider widths are used where the tape also has to seal, for example across the seam of a heavy carton or around a coil.

The adhesive is rubber-based and high tack, so it grabs on contact on cardboard, metal and plastic film alike. For plain carton sealing where the extra strength is not required, LKJ® BOPP Packaging Tape is the more straightforward choice.

Where it is used

Typical applications

Steel and pipe

Sealing metal coils and bundling pipe

Metal coils and pipe bundles put a constant outward load on whatever holds them. The woven glass fibre reinforcement gives the tape a very high breaking strength, and the cross weave stops it tearing on the cut edges of a coil. Sealing of metal coils and pipe bundling are listed applications for this construction.

EV and white goods

Packing battery modules and appliances for transit

EV battery modules and large industrial parts are heavy, awkward and expensive to damage. Filament tape holds them in their packaging without the sharp edges and tooling that metal strapping brings to the packing bench. The same construction is used for appliance shipping and white-goods strapping.

Warehouse and palletising

Strapping heavy cartons before wrapping the pallet

For palletising and strapping, filament tape is applied to heavy weight cartons and stacks before the pallet is wrapped, holding the load in compression so it does not shift when the truck moves. In heavy packaging it can replace metal and polypropylene strapping to great advantage, which removes a tool from the packing station.

Buyer questions

Frequently asked questions

What is cross filament tape?

It is a self-adhesive tape specially designed for applications requiring a high breaking strength. The construction is a film backing coated with rubber adhesive, reinforced with woven glass fibres. In the cross weave version the fibres run in two directions, so the tape resists both pulling along its length and tearing across its width.

Can filament tape replace metal or plastic strapping?

In heavy packaging it can replace metal and polypropylene strapping to great advantage. The woven glass fibre reinforcement makes the product extremely strong, and applying tape needs no banding tool and leaves no sharp steel edges at the packing station or at the point of opening.

How strong is LKJ® Cross Filament Tape?

It is designed for applications requiring a high breaking strength, and the strength comes from the woven glass fibres reinforcing the film backing rather than from the adhesive, which is why a narrow band of filament tape holds a far heavier load than a wide band of plain packaging film tape would. We do not publish a breaking-strength figure per grade; tell us the load and the width and we will confirm the grade to trial.

What widths and lengths are available?

Widths are slit from 6mm to 1000mm, with custom widths available on request, and the standard roll length is 50m. Narrow widths suit strapping and bundling work; wider widths are used where the tape also has to seal a seam, for example across a heavy carton or around a metal coil.

What is this tape used for?

Listed applications are packing of heavy weight cartons, palletising, strapping, and sealing of metal coils and pipe bundling. It is also used for packing EV battery modules and large industrial parts, for appliance shipping and white-goods strapping, and it is widely used for cricket bat protection, where the reinforcement holds the blade face under repeated impact.

Which adhesive is used, and what does it bond to?

The backing is coated with a high-tack rubber-based adhesive. Rubber systems grab quickly on contact, which suits bundling work where the operator wraps and cuts in one movement rather than waiting for a bond to build. It is used on cardboard, metal coils, pipe and plastic film in the applications listed for the product.
