How many feet are in a roll of packing tape?

It depends on the length you need; rolls come in different sizes for both width and length!

Here are some comparison widths and lengths for Scotch (TM) and OfficeMax (TM) brands, sold as 'Packaging Tape, Multipurpose' or as 'Heavy-Duty Shipping Tape':

Scotch® Heavy-Duty 1 & 7/8" x 22.2 Yd. (equals 66.6 feet)

Office Depot® Brand 1.89" x 43.7 Yds. (equals 131.1 feet)

Office Depot® Brand 1.89" x 54.6 Yd. (equals 163.8 feet)

Scotch® Heavy-Duty Shipping Tape, 1.88" x 54.6 Yd. (equals 163.8 feet)

Office Depot® Brand , 1.89" x 109.4 Yd. (equals 328.2 feet)


* Don't ask me why they don't just standardize the widths and lengths between brands.
