A deadly disease is sweeping the world and nobody knows how to stop it. Movie theatres and swimming pools are shut and schools are closed. People are discouraged from gathering in large groups at the beach. Twelve-year-old Tom Mitchell can't even see his best friend Charlie. He wonders when the lockdown is ever going to end. And then things get worse. It might all sound familiar. But this is New Zealand in 1937-38. The disease is infantile paralysis, or polio, and nobody knows where it will strike next. When even the adults are afraid, Tom finds refuge in his dream – to run in the Olympics like his hero, Olympic champion Jack Lovelock.

Reliable heat tape that holds firm and releases clean
Color: Blue-2 Roll
The MS WGO High Temperature Tape is an excellent product for sublimation printing and heat transfer work. The blue color makes it easy to distinguish from other tapes in the workshop. At 10mm wide and 33 meters long, each roll provides generous coverage, and getting 2 rolls in a pack makes it a great value. The adhesive holds firmly during heat press operations but releases cleanly without leaving any residue — exactly what you need for sublimation transfers. The heat resistance is genuine; I've used these at typical heat press temperatures (350-400°F) and the tape performs flawlessly without melting, bubbling, or breaking down. The clean release is a major benefit over cheaper alternatives that leave sticky residue and ruin transfers. The narrow 10mm width is ideal for securing the edges of transfers precisely. I've gone through multiple rolls for my sublimation projects and repurchased several times. A reliable, professional-quality tape that does exactly what it promises.

very thin. very large amount. two rolls last me years maybe.
Color: A-Yellow-2 Roll
fast shipping. film tape was more than i though. very thin. strong. great adhesion but no residue. i am us8ng as anti conductivity barrier on switch c9nnection tabs where solder and wire is bare. to resist possible short circuits or touching by hands... basically wrapping parts to keep safe and i did heat lightly and it seemed to set it up and kick like ub 2poxy woupd. quick and now it 8snt sticky or able to remove easy. basically it is awesome and necessary for any electronics lab and if you are DIY or experienced then just buy it because you need it even if you never heard of it.
