What are “seconds”?

“Seconds” are first run, fresh tapes that did not make all of the high tolerance levels specified by the manufacturer. However after closer inspection and our careful selection we have discovered perfectly good tapes that are in excellent shape. And they will work for 95% of the applications for which the tape was originally intended. Some tapes may appear slightly different in color or texture. Some cores may be slightly out of round. The wind up of the tape may be slightly off giving a more rugged appearances. Through our process we assure that those mostly cosmetic differences will not effect its application.
