Frequently Asked Questions

Thank you for your interest in Stexley–Brake, LLC and the Tape Wrangler™. We strive to create innovative solutions to your hardware needs. We’ve listed a few frequently asked questions below. We hope they are of help to you.

How did you dream of such a great product like the Tape Wrangler™?
Just like you, we LOVE duct tape! We use it all the time and found it difficult to handle and tear. The Tape Wrangler™ is designed to give clean, straight cuts every time and allow one-handed tape cutting.

Why is Duct/Duck Tape so difficult to tear the traditional way?
We love it because it is stronger and stickier than other tapes – but that makes it heavy and difficult to work with. You must make contact to the sticky tape with both hands each time for each tear – it's tough!

What's the purpose of the belt clip?
The removable belt clip allows the user to carry the Tape Wrangler™ easily from place to place by attaching it to their belt on either side of the device – keeping hands free for carrying other tools and supplies. You could hang it anywhere, on a a tool chest, or in your utility trailer!

Will the Tape Wrangler™ fit brightly colored "craft" duct tape?
Yes! We designed the Tape Wrangler™ to be compatible with all kinds of duct tape. It will even hold and cut other, lighter weight tapes like packaging and shipping tape.

I'm a fan of NASCAR; can Tape Wrangler™ be used on a race track?
We love NASCAR! The Tape Wrangler™ will make quick repairs on the race track even faster! It is designed to accommodate rolls of NASCAR strength tape (200 MPH Tape) in rolls up to 70 yards long!

Hey, I love your bracket, but my wife doesn't want to "see it" in the laundry room – HELP!
Compromise. The Tape Wrangler™ can mount under any solid cabinet or shelf. Mount the bracket inside your cabinet (under a shelf) in your laundry room – out of sight of your wife. Or find an out of the way wall out in the garage, workshop or basement. Once your wife uses it, we believe she'll love it (almost) as much as you do!

I’ve used my Tape Wrangler™ so often; I think the blade is getting dull. What can I do?
First, try cleaning any sticky residue from the blade by carefully applying a solvent with a damp towel. If you need a new blade, we’ve got you covered. Replacement blades are available through Stexley-Brake to keep you cutting tape cleanly for many projects to come. Visit our Order Page for details.

Where is Tape Wrangler™ made?
We are proud to say that the Tape Wrangler™ is made in the United States of America. We have patents pending on the product in both the U.S. and Canada.
