Renfrew Cloth Hockey Tape (2-Pack) - 1" Width - Black XT

No issues with the tape. My daughter approves.

Renfrew is my favorite brand of hockey stick tape so far - I prefer it to be a bit tacky because it will stay put. I don't play any hockey, but I do like to wrap this stuff onto a katana handle. It sounds "Trailerpark" as hell, I know, but the stuff works great.It does cover up (and protect?!) the pretty handle parts, but the grip is improved enough that I can easily overlook the esthetics.I haven't had a katana handle wrap come loose or fall apart yet, with this (admittedly) imperfect and (barely) adequate method.It's simple and inexpensive enough to replace after too much use has uglied it up a bit.Renfrew stays put, where other brands tend to unravel and fall apart.I prefer black for a katana or wakizashi handle, but I like camouflage (or other colors that are easier to find in the grass) for my throwing knives.

This makes an excellent wrap for a framing hammer haft.- Unroll approximately 2-1/2' of tape and make a single wrap about 3" down from the head of you hammer.- Holding the hammer level to the ground, spin the hanging roll of tape so that the remaining +2' of tape twists into a cord- Holding the hammer vertically, wind the cord down the haft in a spirel and then back up so that it overlaps in a checker pattern- As you return to the starting point of the wrap at the top of the haft, your cord should 'end' and lay flat again- With the now flat tape, from the top, wrap it back down the haft and back up.- A double wrap at the top and you're done.

I love this tape! I recently read about using hockey tape for taping fingers while training Jiu-Jitsu. I figured I'd give it a try, and I was not disappointed! I will buy this again for sure! Great quality and stays put!

I have an older Chevy S-10 pickup with a steering wheel grip that was disintegrating. I used a designed wrap for a replacement, but it became a pain as it would loosen and become a nuisance.Why not some kind of tape? I saw where hockey stick tape was employed by a YouTube woodworker as a way to make wood clamps handles and hammers more hand friendly, especially if you have arthritis.I took off the old S-10 steering wheel wrap and used the tape. So far, so good. Not loose and is firmly secured to the wheel. Has a little tackiness to it as well. As of this writing - happy with this budget solution.

Tool handles, grips, all the hold, less on the sticky goo oozing through. Other tapes react with some surfaces like a mic cable, extension cord jacket, etc., with adhesive dissolving. I haven't tested this brand to others in this way but it can't be worse, and is superior in other ways. No hockey tape replaces a factory fitted grip, but if you are using hockey tape, use the Renfrew and be done.

We've used many different brands of stick tape. Renfrew is the best! Its more durable than any other brand we've used. We don't have to retape her stick as often. None of the brick and mortar stores by us carry it, so I got it on amazon.

Best hockey tape. Renfrew wins. Stays on the blade, doesn’t peel. Can usually get 2 skates out of a tape job, could get more but I’m picky.
