I voted Gaffa, as I don't think motorcycle racing would exist without it.

I have special distain for 9600ft 1/2 inch open reel. As I used to support an IBM 9221 with particularly tempremental tape drives

Duct tape - I have a roll within a few metres of me at all times. It holds the planet together.

Self-amalgamating insulating tape... Great stuff. Or the TDK SA90, which supported my entire music collection for about a decade.

Seeing as I've just stripped and hand laid my loom in the stuff - Insulating Tape gets my vote. But only 'coz I didn't have self-amalg handy at the time.


Just to be completist, measuring tape is not there.
