Gladiator Scrim Tape (48mm x 90m)

Plasterer’s scrim tape, also known as drywall tape or joint tape, is a type of self-adhesive mesh tape that is used in construction and home renovation projects to reinforce joints between sheets of drywall or plasterboard.

Scrim tape is ideal to always have on hand if you’re new to plastering as you can use it to divide a large wall into several sections. More experienced plasterers will also have a roll of scrim tape with them for jobs involving ceiling and flexible walls. You can place the scrim tape over screws or nail heads to prevent any plaster from popping when dry.

The tape is applied to the joint before plaster or joint compound is added. This ensures that the joint is strengthened and remains crack-free. The mesh construction of the tape allows the plaster or joint compound to adhere more effectively, creating a stronger bond and preventing cracking in the joint over time.

Scrim tape can also be used to repair damaged or cracked walls, as it helps to hold the patching material in place while it dries.
