Shurtape DF 642 Double-Coated Cloth Tape — Carpet & Trade Show
Shurtape® DF 642 has been discontinued
We recommend Shurtape® DF 545 Duck Pro® as the closest replacement — a professional-grade double-coated cloth carpet tape for the same carpet-and-pad, convention center, arena, and hotel installs, with the added benefit of 30-day indoor, residue-free removal.
Recommended Alternative: Shurtape DF 545 Duck Pro® Double-Coated Cloth Carpet Tape
With DF 642 discontinued, Shurtape® DF 545 Duck Pro® is our recommended alternative. Like DF 642, it's a double-coated (double-sided) cloth tape built on a polyester/cotton blend carrier for securing carpet and pad at convention centers, arenas, and hotels, plus general-purpose hanging and splicing. DF 545 adds a 30-day indoor, residue-free removal feature that DF 642 does not offer, making it especially well suited to temporary event and trade-show flooring where clean tear-down matters.

- Clean removal (new) — DF 545 offers 30-day indoor, residue-free removal; DF 642 did not

- Thickness — DF 545 is 10.5 mil vs. DF 642's 12 mil
- Roll length — DF 545 is 33m (36.1 yd) vs. DF 642's 23m
- Color — DF 545 is Natural; DF 642 was White
- Same core uses — Both are double-coated cloth carpet tapes for carpet and pad at convention centers, arenas, and hotels
