Before you buy
How much tape do you actually need?
Most people over-order or run out one edge short. Enter your panel size and we'll do the arithmetic, including the offcut you lose trimming each end.
A 7.5 m roll covers a typical set of six shelves banded on one long edge. Round up — offcuts always find a use.
Every roll is cut from a single batch, so a 50 m trade roll matches end to end — the usual failure mode when you top up a job from two separate orders.
The range
Six species, every size
White Ash iron-on edging tape
Pale and straight-grained. Takes a stain more evenly than oak.
Nordic Birch iron-on edging tape
Creamy and consistent. The usual match for birch ply edges.
American Cherry iron-on edging tape
Starts pink-brown and ambers into a deeper tone in its first year.
European Oak iron-on edging tape
Warm and open-grained — the safest match for most oak-faced board.
Hard Maple iron-on edging tape
Very pale, tight-grained, with an occasional subtle fleck.
American Walnut iron-on edging tape
Deep chocolate brown that mellows slightly with light over time.
Four steps · about a minute per metre
If you can use an iron, you can do this
The order matters — trimming before the glue has cooled is the single most common way to lift an edge you've just laid.
STEP 01
Cut long
Cut 30 mm over length. The overhang gives you something to hold and keeps fingers off hot tape.
STEP 02
Iron, cotton setting
No steam. Work slowly — about forty seconds a metre. The adhesive turns glossy when it has taken.
STEP 03
Press while hot
Run a block along the edge right behind the iron. This is what makes the bond, not the heat alone.
STEP 04
Cool, then trim
Wait two minutes. Trim flush with a proper trimmer, then break the corner with 240 grit.
