I-Filament tape nomatape yokubophaiyiteyipu ezwela ukucindezela esetshenziselwa imisebenzi eminingi yokupakisha njengokuvala amabhokisi kathayela we-fiberboard, amaphakheji aqinisayo, izinto zokuhlanganisa, i-pallet unitizing, njll. Iqukethe ingcina ezwela ukucindezela enamathiselwe phezu kwempahla esekelayo ngokuvamile eyifilimu ye-polypropylene noma i-polyester. kanye nemicu ye-fiberglass eshunyekiwe ukwengeza amandla aqinile.Yasungulwa ngo-1946 nguCyrus W. Bemmels, usosayensi osebenzela uJohnson noJohnson.
Amabanga ahlukahlukene we-filament tape ayatholakala.Abanye banamandla afinyelela ku-600 wamakhilogremu ayintshi ngayinye yobubanzi.Izinhlobo ezahlukene kanye namabanga okunamathelayo ayatholakala.
Ngokuvamile, i-tape ingu-12 mm (cishe 1/2 intshi) kuya ku-24 mm (cishe i-intshi engu-1) ububanzi, kodwa ibuye isetshenziswe kwezinye ububanzi.
Amandla ahlukahlukene, ama-caliper, nokwakheka kokunamathela kuyatholakala.
Itheyiphu isetshenziswa kakhulu njengokuvalwa kwamabhokisi kathayela njengebhokisi eligqagqene eligcwele, ifolda yamaphaneli amahlanu, ibhokisi lesibonakude eligcwele.Iziqeshana noma amapheshana anomumo othi “L” asetshenziswa phezu kwe-flap egqagqene, enwebeka ngo-50 – 75 mm (2 – 3 amayintshi) kumaphaneli ebhokisi.
Imithwalo esindayo noma ukwakhiwa kwebhokisi elibuthakathaka kungase futhi kusizwe ngokusetshenziswa kwemichilo noma amabhande we-filament tape ebhokisini.
